Best Tariff for Free Text Messages?

mrsheen_2

Hi,
My sister is looking for her first pay monthly contract and we're finding it hard to get a plan which is cheap enough and has enough free texts as thats all she really uses. So she only needs a few minutes talktime free and about 250 texts. I've had a look around all the usual sites but can't find any that offer anything like this for around the £15-£20. I know there's the text only plans but she wants a few talktime minutes.

Thanks for your help,
Chris

Any reason why it has to be a contract phone?.

O2 offer 300 free texts on PAYG as long as you top up with £10 monthly. The £10 will more than cover the minimal call requiremnt and the texts are free for a total cost of £10/month

Sims cost £9.99 from http://www.o2genie.co.uk/ but can be picked up for £5/6 on Ebay

Just spotted this on another thread. Might be of interest

<<How about this deal - http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/offerde...fercode=VODVF67

Beats the o2 online deal - you get 250 texts a month, 900 off peak mins, a free ericsson t610, £10 cashback...oh and a free clock!!! All for £4.99 per month.>>

Without a doubt I would recommending ordering online at https://www.02.co.uk there online tariffs are cracking for inclusive txts (and its not a short term promotion)

Online 50 at £19 = 50 mins & 500 txts
Online 100 at £25 = 100 mins & 500 txts

Take the txter option when you select the tariff

Hope that helps

Hi Chris
If you would like one of the O2 cards PM me your address and I will drop one in the post.

The sims are great. As mentioned top up with £10 a month and you get 300 texts and either 300 minutes of WAP access or 1MB. The £10 is actual credit for calls.

Cheers
