    For a PAYG sim Icardmobile is better with 6/4 p/min.
    However, depending on your usage, a rolling sim-only contract can be cheaper.

    I just took out a new 3GS contract on Orange at £15 a month (less my 25% NHS discount). I admit that the tariff is awful at only 50 minutes, 50 texts, 100MB data but the good thing is that I am normally either at work with free wifi or at home with free wifi. The phone is running iOS5 so when used with wifi apple/apple messaging is free and I also take advantage of free Skype. It may not suit all but it really works for me!!

    Checking out ICard they look excellent value and I think a cheap Android + their sim is tempting.

    But 10p per MB makes 100MB = £10 which seems a bit steep?

    Tariffs are so complicated to choose, bring back nationalised BT! :)

    For mobile internet you have to consider giffgaff or chitter-chatter or talkmobile or '3'.

    I suggested Icardmobile only as an alternative to Tecso after you decided to "forget the internet on your phone"
