I reckon i know the answer to this, but do t-mobile do a tariff that is only their walk n web thing? So that you only pay the £7.50 for the wap, with no mins etc?

I know pay as you go has a £1 a day cap, but that is still considerably more than the £7.50 option on pay monthly if you want regular use.

Don't want the mins, just the data allowance!

thanks for help

    I don't think Web n Walk is available on its own, I think it's an add on for pay monthly plans. The cheapest pay monthly plan I can see is the £7.50 a month sim only. You don't get many minutes but you are not tied to a contract.

    If you add Web n Walk to it the total of £15 a month is still reasonable compared to what is available elsewhere.

    thank you

    it looks like it has the same walk and web as pay as you go, as it talks about a £1 cap. I had a look for the £7.50 version to add, but couldn't find out if it was possible. Did you see a link about adding it?

    Don't think you can do it online but you can order the combined package over the phone or go through Quidco (£10.80 cashback) to get the sim only package and then phone them to add Web n Walk.

    Not exactly what you're asking about, but I was using my laptop in Starbucks and was looking at the monthly data tariff for laptops which is £20 per month. Can be used in any t-mobile hotspot such as in Starbucks and some Southern trains.

    Couldn't find many details out though, such as minimum term.
  • I called T-mobile recently to ask about web n walk (as I'm trying to get a 12 month free cashback deal and then add web n walk separately).

    They told me that you can only change your contract after 3 months (even if it's moving to a different tariff or adding extra services. does anyone know any different?

    seems strange that you can't add services for three months, after all it would be more money for them
  • I agree, very odd, so it could just be that the customer service person just didn't have a clue :)

    I wonder why T-mobile seems to be the only network bothered about affordable data?

    also, do other providers ever do a price match on web n walk?

    3 Mobile seem to do unlimited Internet surfing for £5 on top of their tariffs.

    but I bet they don't do just a data tariff either!
