Hi

My contract is up soon with vodafone. I have had a few issues with vodafone, price plan issues etc but would stay with them if they offer the best contract.
Im after an Iphone 4 they have offered £35 for 24 months with 600 mins, unlimited text and 1gb internet, phone cost £119. Is this a good deal or is there anything better that I should be aware off.

Thank you

There are no "deals" on iPhones. The best thing to do (if you can afford it) is to buy sim-free from Apple and get a sim-only contract.

Currently, Three are offering the best combination of minutes/texts and their up-front costs are slightly lower than the competition (clicky). You have the choice of 500 minutes for £30 or 900 minutes for £35 - both with an up front cost of £99 and the same texts/internet as Voda are offering. If you don't go over 500 minutes, then the £30 deal looksmuch better for you and will save you (£20 up front and £5 over 2 years) £140 over the life of the contract.

This option is good if you can't afford the £500 to buy the phone and go sim free as recommended by Ex above. The "Buy sim free from Apple" was the route that I took and it means that I can go with the best "for now" but I'm not stuck in a long contract and can switch when I like.

Also dont forget Quidco for some cashback. (not all companies offer it on iPhone 4 but there are some that do.) I think it is around £60 cashback
