    That is a pretty amazing deal, if I hadn't gone for the T-Mobile one I'd have snapped the Tesco offer up in a shot!

    Nice share :)

    I don't know if it's still available to new customers but I'm on 3 and I get 200txts, 50mb, free skype, free MSM, Free 3-3 calls and sites like facebook and ebay don't use up any of your data. All for £3.33/month. It's really £10 topup gets you 3 times the above but it all lasts for 90 days so that's the equivalent. Great if you're not a heavy user, your £10 credit pays for your phone calls but you can buy add-ons such as "unlimited data" for £5/month

    O2 suggest

    Every 500MB of UK data will allow you to (approx):
    Send 500,000 emails, without attachments
    or send 1,000 emails, with photos attached
    or visit 5,000 simple sites, like Twitter or your favourite blog
    or visit 1,500 rich content sites, like bbc.co.uk, guardian.co.uk or yahoo.co.uk
    or download 50 (low quality) or 12 (high quality) music tracks
    or watch 60 YouTube videos, about 4.5 minutes long

    500mb is loads. I often just surf to pass the time, check MSE while I'm out, and stay within 50mb a month!
  • This was a managers special in tesco in osterley last night so i'm guessing it's available in stores too. Tesco do this from time to time, i managed to get the same on a 1 month contract not so long back which i never plan on cancelling at that price.

    Me too, changed from O2 in May after an alert from Jeanie (MadAboutBargains). It's an excellent deal.

    It is, especially as it's pretty much using the o2 network anyway so i get the same coverage. What's better is when I told o2 i was leaving to get this they just said "we can't beat that, here's your puc", no arguing or going throug hcustoemr retentions at all:j
