I want to take out a new phone contract, my other one was up two months ago and been on PAYG since, which isnt good for me. My previous contract I was not very MSE and looking at rates for what I was paying were a rip off.
I was always with orange, but the signal for it is horrific around here so have ruled them out, same goes for three here.
But looking on places like carphone warehouse tooo many deals out there, like ones with free gifts are they worth it??
I really want a blackberry too but which is best??
Can anyone advise me?? Am a novice normally hubby sorts these things but he is on deployment.
Thank youu

Any idea which network you do want if Orange and Three are out?
Blackberries are available for about £15 per month including 100 mins/100 texts and the Blackberry data service (BBM) if you want a new phone. Can't really advise on handsets.
PAYG doesn't necessarily have to be expensive - T-mobile will send you a free blackberry SIM for example, with 6 months of free Blackberry data, you get 100 mins for topping up £10 each month, and can use that credit to either text as you go or buy text boosters (300 for £10 I think) and you can use accrued credit to buy further 6-month data bundles for £20 a time.
If you're currently with Orange might be worth checking you're using extras and top up rewards to your best advantage before you switch, too.
Ultimately, it depends on your usage and which phone you're after.0 -

Enjoy!!!0
