Nokia X6/Nokia 6303 and internet prices

mike23

Looking for a bit of advice if possible. I've used the search function but can't see anything that answers my specific question:

I currently have a pretty old Nokia PAYG phone which I've always been pretty happy with but it's had it's day so I'm looking for a new phone.

I don't use it alot, just the odd text and phone call - I only put about £10 top up every couple of months.

However, when I buy my next phone, I would like to be able to access the internet to place bets at a couple of bookmakers (matched betting) when I'm out and about. This would only be a couple of times a week.

I was looking at the Nokia 6303 originally because it seems to be a good little phone for me but am unsure whether it would be OK for accessing the internet. I can get this on PAYG for around £70 or on a £10 p/m contract on O2 for 24 months.

I was also looking at the Nokia X6 which I would have to get on the pay monthly tarif which is again £10 p/m. However, my concern with this is that the contract only includes 50 mins calls and doesn't seem to include any internet time and I am concerned about the charges racking up for accessing the internet. Ideally, if I get a contract phone, I don't want to be paying more than the £10 p/m. I'm also unsure whether I really need all of the other features.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Buymobilephones.net have the X6 on T Mobile for £15 a month, more than you want to pay but you'll get 300 minutes, 300 texts and free internet too for that price. I think it's £40 upfront for the phone.
