Orange (Retention ??) Deal Advice Needed Please

I've got a Samsung Phone I think a D600 and my 12 month contract ran out in Dec. It does the job and I'd like to keep my number. After all the cash backs and free phone it worked out I paid them £12.50 per month for 200 cross network anytime minutes. There were a few thousand weekend minutes for the first 6 months.

To stay with them Mr Orange is offering me 325 mobile x network mins, 450 landline mins and 75 texts per month for £15.00 but signing up for 18 months. Plus one magic number every 6 months whatever that might be

Is this a decent deal ?

    I'll get back onto them but really I'm looking to be paying about the same ie £12.50 a month but for a load more minutes
