Been looking for a new phone for my husband for a while for a contract of around £20. Honestly did not expect to find the Galaxy for this price. If you do not need a lot of minutes like him then this is ideal.

T.Mobile

300 minutes

300 texts

500 mb data and unlimited internet.


Added Bonus.
Was just about to order when I thought best check Quidco. "Bingo" Also £35.00 cashback on this deal, ordered yesterday and already tracked.:cool2:

    This deal saved me £80 cash and £5.50 pm as I used it as a bargaining tool with o2 last month. I got 200min/3000txt/500mb/free S2 - £21.50 x 24
    I stayed with o2 to get £5 off broadband.

    your cost is £455 over 2 years
    the 12 month is £382,then at that point you are contract free
    either sell the phone or drop to sim free,I'm currently on an £8 per month sim free deal. 300 mins,unl texts,500mb data and wifi inclusive

    each to their own I simply wouldnt be tied for 2 years

    Who is that with?

    I'm on O2 sim free contact. 300 mins, unlimited o2 calls, unlimited texts and unlimited data and wifi for £10.21 per month.

    I'd never get into a phone contract again and be tied when there are better sim free deals.

    I saw this yesterday - my bloke has just got this phone on contract and is paying £31 per month for 2 years. I told him that I saw it in Tesco cheaper but he said he couldn't be bothered to do anything about it - but nearly £10 cheaper per month for 2 years is nearly £240!!!!!!
    He took out his contract a week ago and has used the ohone so unsure if he could cancel now anyway?

    Hi there,

    He's free to cancel within 16 days. Get him to threaten the cancel unless they pricematch. If they don't - cancel!

    PS - Thanks, OP. Wife is looking for this phone (I already have it). I'm on £20 a month for 18 months with Vodafone 600 mins ult text and 500mb data. This, however, is only because I've been with them for a long time and have 3 contracts with them.
    I am firmly across the line. I won't impose my values on you if you keep away from mine.

    Bu88er - got the phone on Saturday, on that deal. Didn't do cashback though!:(
    I wanna be in the room where it happens
  • OK,apologies for being such a numpty but could someone explain "Sim free" to me please?
    My 18mt contract with T-Mobile is up in March.I currently have unlimited txts,600 and 1GB of data. This was supposed to be £35 a month mut my bills are always at least £45.
    Voicemail costs and any 08numbers,plus VAT plus being completely stung on occasional trips abroad and of course picture messaging.
    I have an HTC desire HD which I am ambivalent about but I really need to cut my monthly bill to a max of £30 per mt all in.
    Is this possible do you reckon whilst keeping the same benefits (or even better she says hopefully)??
