PAYG v Contract

Irishorangutan

Hi all,

a little advice needed.

Currently i'm spending 20 - 30 pounds per month on my PAYG. I'm on 02 getting 300 texts per month free, plus around 150 minutes per month off peak to landlines and o2 mobiles (i think) free when I top up 15 quid. It doesn't seem to bad, but I could always do with more minutes - as i'm always conscious of how long i'm on a call...which isn't always great, if it's a business call.

Are there any contracts which can match and beat what i'm spending?

Basically, I need plenty minutes, cross network - lots of texts (150 - 300 a month - although i've no idea how many I ACTUALLY use).

Any ideas?

Thanks :-)

If you are spending 20 to 30 a month then you should deffo go on a contracI

If you go with someone like 3 you would easily get around 300 mins and 300 texts if not more for £20-£30

Also you will be getting yourself a nice brand new phone so I would try to find a contract if I were you.

just did a quick search and this is a good deal


£15 line rental for 10 months (£30 for the last 8 months)
Half Price Line Rental for 10 months on new approved 18 month contracts
Nokia 6280 - Now available FREE
All 3's great video services PLUS an integrated music player for the easiest way to get to your music.
Double mins & texts for 6 months: 600 mins & 2000 texts (then down to 300 mins & 1000 texts)

You can check how many O2 texts you have left each month by calling 4444 and pressing 2 and then 2 i think.

you could get 750 minutes and 750 texts on an O2 contract for about £35 per month with a very high spec phone.

Sell the high spec. phone on ebay for hundreds of pounds and just put the new sim in your existing phone. Take the amount you get for the new phone and put it towards your new contract and you will end up paying, overall, about £15 a month for the vastly improved package.

Some excellent deals on refurbished phones from 3 http://threestore.three.co.uk/clearance.aspx e.g. refurbished V3x with 300 x-network minutes and 1000 texts (both doubled for the first six months) for £15 a month over an eighteen month contract.
