Anyone Match This?

Just been on the phone to Orange to cancel my contract. Had a feeling they would offer a good deal, and they did.

2500 mins Anytime, Any network + Unlimited Texts
I think "unlimited texts" means about 1000 pm.
18 Month Contract
£30 PM

The only reason I am looking around still is because I know they will charge something stupid for the phone I want (N95 - due in next month or two), and ideally I want a 12 month contract, although that may not be necessary.

Has anyone seen anything anywhere near as good as this? I don't need 1000 SMS's, maybe 750 at very most.

Thanks
King Regards,

RudeYute

    You have'nt said how much they want...................!!

    Sorry, my eyesite is terrible!!! Just spotted it after 2 mins of staring at the screen. £30 seems a good deal but do you really need all that talktime!!

    Your Eyes aren't decieving you, I edited the price in when I realised.:p
    I don't need that many minutes atm, but would need 1000 easily, sometimes upto 1500... anything extra is a bonus! It's the first deal she offered me, so was extremely impressed. Haven't paid much attention to contracts recently, so don't know if this is becoming a standard deal.

    Thats alot of Anytime Xnet mins and Texts for the money, even 3 could not match that. Could you not trade off some mins for the N95??

    1,000 Posts Combo Breaker
    the fair useage on the unlimited is 3,000
    Yes Your Dukeiness :D
  • That is an awesome deal...is it sim only?
  • Wow - 100 texts a day - now that's very fair!!

    It's available with a phone - cost of the upgrade/phone depends on the phone, but Orange are usually expensive.

  • Double check that they will offer the amount of minutes and texts for the full 18 months, and its not a promotion for the first 3 months or something sneaky like that.

    And get it all in writing with a name (not just a department) to confirm it all before you accept this. It sounds too good to be true. But lets hope this is straight.
