iPhone contract is now up. Where do I find the best SIM only deals?

lancslass2008

Hi all

Before anybody calls me Lazy I'm not. I'm just baffled by the millions of deals on offer. This is made even more complicated by the inclusion of:
Cashback from Quidco, free gifts, redemptions, free months etc, etc. Basically, it's like this:
My iPhone is in perfect working order. It is on 02 whom I'm happy with. Now that my contract is up I just want a SIM only contract that offers the following:
At least 500 texts
At least 800 minutes
Unlimited internet browsing
That's it! Yes, I have been on some sites and found some great deals, only to find that 'This offer is no longer available, BUT we've got this........'
I presume 02 have the best internet coverage, so guess I should stay with them??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all. xxxx

Using Quidco you can get a 12 month simplicity for iPhone tariff offering 900 mins, unlimited texts and internet for £16.66 a month.

The tariff is £25 a month with £100 quidco cashback.

Please be aware cashback is never 100% guaranteed but personally i've never had a problem and quidco has ALWAYS paid out.

The £100 cashback finishes today.

Just as I was about to take up the offer of the simplicity through Quidco (£100 cashback) I spotted the condition:

'Cashback is not paid on iPhones"

Grrrrrrrr:mad:

OK, so I looked around and it looks like there's no choice that it has to be O2, because some months I have used quite a bit of Data (Jan 3MB, Mar 5MB, May 11MB). I noticed that Vodaphones deal only comes with up to 1MB of Data. Therefore I'd get hammered with Data charges if I went with Vodaphone. So...
Seeing as there are no Cashbacks available from Quidco for iPhones, does anybody have any Free gifts or incentives for my chosen plan?

Simplicity 12 Months, 1200 Mins, Unlimited texts, Unlimited Data.

Thanks all. xxxx

No need to be :mad: you are not purchasing an iPhone on contract!!! You are purchasing a simplicity for iPhone tariff which IS paid by Quidco, I've had 2 "simplicity for iPhone" tariff's paid via Quidco as have hundreds of others.

Err... Vodafone is 1GB. That is just under a 1000 times your 11MB.

You are mixing your units up. How much have you used? 3, 5, and 11MB OR 3, 5, and 11GB?

Thanks for the advice Peeps. By the look of it my timing is poor! Yesterday the cashback was available from Quidco. Today it's gone! Does anyone know how often these cashback deals come back round? Am I better off just letting my contract roll on at £45 per month (now it's out of contract) until a deal pops up?

Have you tried phoning O2 to see what deal they can offer you?

Hi

Yes, I have rang O2, but they are not overly helpful, and the 'Threat' that I am weighing up other options/deals/networks doesn't seem to work anymore. all they quoted me was what was exactly on the web site. Strangely, they didn't even try the old 'Would you like me to sign you up now over the phone' etc, etc.

I am intrigued with Danstars deal of 2400 mins etc. That is brilliant, but I just can't find that deal!
