If your hunting around for a new deal o2 retail stores will only be able to do the 02 500 tarriff (750 xnet mins and 100 messages for £35 until the end of this month

From there a new set of tarrifs are gonna launch

The new tarrifs will start at £20 per month and will only be 1 off peak tarriff

On the whole more mins will be included but the best thing will be something called "Long Weekend Calls"

Meaning if your on a tariff on £35 per month or more youll get 2000 mins of calls to make on any Saturday, Sunday or Monday free, wont come out of your allowance on the tarrif you take, so the £35 tarrif or higher you take will only have to cover you for 4 days of calls a week effectivly.

Ill get more specifics if required only saw it all quickly last nite :)

    £35 400 100
    £40 500 100
    £50 700 100
    £70 1000 100


    Those again are anytime and net mins and messages

    £25 1000 anynet off peak with 100 msgs

    So on the whole £5 reduction on tarrifs and extra mins all round really, doesnt change anything unless your signing a new or upgraded contract after 13th July

    Free Long Weekend Mins are for £35 tarrifs and higher, 2000 mins a month under fair usage policy and from 12.01am Saturday thru Sunday and Monday, if you take a 18 month contact you get the Long Weekend Calls for life, if you take a 12 month contract its for 6 months only

    Long weekend will be avalable for pay and go , will be 500 mins per month as long as you top up £10 a month or more

    Are the Free Long Weekend Mins X Network or just O2 / Landline?

    Can you confirm?

    Do the inclusive minutes still allow calls to non-geographic numbers? I know it sounds very sceptical, but offering more minutes overall probably has some other catches (like perhaps no more rollover)

    Again ill double check to be sure but the long weekend mins are im sure xnet and geographical landline nos

    Not 0870, 0800 etc

    Rollover is for 1mth on £35+ and freevoicemail and ITS services are free on £35+ too, so downside is used to be £30 a month for free voicemail, rollover ITS etc now its £35 but you get long weekends :)

    The non geographical numbers calling on o2 stops on the 1st July as per the recent change in the terms and conditions, so they wont be incl full stop but for uk xnet and landline its a good deal i think

    This is news to me (but then again I live on the channel islands!!)

    I was not aware that o2 were removing inclusive bundle usage on non-geographic (i.e. 0870, 0845, etc) numbers. Will this also apply to old tariffs?

    Tarrriffs sound really good - dont quite match upto flext i think e.g. £35 a month 850 mins and 100 texts - but they beat oranges core tarriffs without the extras
    Yes Your Dukeiness :D

    Where is this information coming from that 0845/0870/0800 Non Geographical will not be included in the inclusive mins.

    Suityou69 do you work for O2?

    UK Fixed Line Calls include calls made in the UK to standard UK Fixed-Line Numbers, voicemail menu access and retrieval, fax calls, and calls to free phone, local rate and national rate numbers (0845 and 0870). On O2 200, 250, 400, 600 and O2 Max voicemail menu access and retrieval is free and not decremented as part of your inclusive minutes. Inclusive minutes include UK Fixed Line Calls, WAP over GSM data calls, calls to O2 mobiles and calls to other UK mobiles (�cross network�). From July 1 2006, inclusive minutes exclude all calls to 07744 and 07755 numbers, these calls will be charged 25p per minute at all times.
