iPhone 4 Good Deal????

Have spoken to o2 retentions and they have offered me the following deal, just wanted some feedback, is this a good deal?? Can I do better elsewhere by leaving o2??

iPhone 4 for Free
1200 Xnet anytime minutes
Free Unlimited o2 to o2 calls anytime
Unlimited text messages
Unlimited Wifi
700mg downloads

£45 per month, 24 month contract

Apparently I am entitled to claim a free case through Apple once I receive the phone, I have to download an application (which is free) then I can claim my case for free.

Unfortunately I need this amount of minutes otherwise I could go for a cheaper option but the minutes are a must.

Any feedback greatly appreciated:j

    I suppose as simplicty for iphone 1200 is £30 that would be £720 over the term , so the handset is costing you £360 and on credit too.
  • Yeh the case offer is till sept 30th possibly to be extended.

    I have just moved on orange from 1200 unlimted tex 750mb data to the 1000 mins 1gb and 50 free phtot tex and orange maps.

    however i wil be dropping to a cheaper tariff after 9 months

    not exacally a good deal, all your getting is a free phone thats worth either £30 or £130 and some free o2 calls.
    They seen you coming.
  • £45 with Three would get you an extra 300Mb of downloads and 800 minutes, but you'd lose the free O2 calls (replaced by 5000 3 - 3 calls) and the WiFi. To be honest, if you are happy with O2 and want an iPhone, go for the deal.
    In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move.

    It might help if your structured your sentence correctly.

    'your getting a free phone worth either £30 or £130' or YOUR GETTING THE PHONE FREE WHEN YOU MIGHT HAVE TO PAY £30 - £130 FOR IT ON ANOTHER CONTRACT/NETWORK.

    Not clear that you are refering to the upfront cost on contract.

    As for your attitude 'A genius you are not............ ' hardly necessary!

    Bet you wouldnt say that someone face you keyboard warrior.

    There are some people with the head ups the bums on this site!!!:(

    No need for such negative/agressive replies.
