Looking for tariff with MMS included or suitable paid for alternative

Does anyone know if there are any current post-pay consumer tariffs left that include a monthly allowance of MMS?

I am looking for an alternative to my pre-2010 O2 tariff where MMS could be sent using 4 of your SMS allowance.

If no tariff is available I would be happy with a paid for option that reduces the cost of MMS.


Options so far:

1) Vodafone MMS50 Bundle - £2 pcm - 50 MMS
2) T-Mobile Family Booster - £5 pcm - includes unlimited MMS but only to 4 other T-Mobile numbers
3) O2 Your Family Bolt On - £7.50 pcm - includes unlimited MMS but only to 4 other O2 numbers
4) O2 Extended Your Family Bolt On - £12.50 pcm - includes unlimited MMS but only to 10 other O2 numbers

    Like you, O2 was handy for that! But there's a good alternative - Orange! That have a tariff called Panther which includes Multimedia, which 50 MMS's are included. Panther starts at £27.50 and comes with a reasonable amount of goodies.

    If I've help in anyway, please remember to thank me :-)

    Thanks. I did not know of that one (and neither did the sales reps in my local Orange Retail store!)

    Thanks. Are these only available on PAYG? I was specifically after a post-pay solution. I have updated my original post to make this clearer.

    This is senseless from the previously respectable O2. MMS uses the internet connection. So, if you have unlimited data like I do does it cost any more to send a MMS? I really am angry about that- previously, you could use ANY of your phone's features without being charged extra :mad:
