3.
Blackberry Curve 9300 £20 a month

4. Samsung Galaxy Pro
£15 a month 100 voice 5000 text 500mb internet
are any of these worth taking?

or should I just stay with my Nokia e63 on £10 a month for

I rarely use the voice but do text and use push email but never use data ourside my allowance.
Thanks

    No upgrade phone is free. You pay for it through the contract. If you are happy with what you have, take the minutes/text/data instead.

    So they have pretty much offer you the deals on their website? I wouldn't take those if I were you.

    Do you need a handset? How much data do you use? Would you be willing to move networks? (transfer your number).

    I would want at least 1ooomb of data, do use my email a lot.
    My Nokia E63 handset is in great condition so I dont really need a handset, and I prefer a phone with a qwerty keyboard.Handset locked to three and to be honest quite happy with the reception etc with them.

    If you need 1Gb of data, the 500MB ones you listed are no good.

    The Nokia E72 deal with 900 minutes/texts and 1GB internet for £15-a-month may be worth considering: http://threestore.three.co.uk/priceplans.aspx?phonecode=NOKE72W3DS £80.80 Topcashback on that one, although I am not sure how you would get on transferring your number as an existing customer (you could transfer to another network with a PAC then straight back!)

    Or their 300 minutes, 1000 texts, 1GB SIM-only deal for £10-a-month may suit: http://threestore.three.co.uk/simonly.aspx. £15.53 Topcashback, but not over the phone as above.
