I was actually stating if you cannot afford it in full before you enter into the contract then go PAYG. I was not referring to having £x surplus per month but can you afford in full to begin with. Peoples circumstances change all the time you cannot live on hope that your income will not change so you should look to having savings for when things go wrong.

A lot of people are not in a position to be able to build up savings. Most people I know seem to be "skint" as the end of the month draws near. You could say that unless you have enough savings to pay off your mortgage then you should not take out a mortgage in case things go wrong.

There is however an important point you must consider. If you breach your contract by failure to pay the amount is owed in full as already explained. Now!, If this happens your service will end as you should expect, you will not get a mobile signal EVEN if you pay it off. No signal during paying it off, nor x months of signal after its paid in full. Basically you end up paying for no service because of 3 or so months missed payments. You will have wasted alot more money if you are unable to get the account out of arrears.

I think most people would grab a payg sim to use till their contract sim was back up and running, so not the end of the world really.

As far as I am aware, the contract SIM will not become up and running if the account is defaulted. It will end permanently.
