Is this offer from T-mobile worth me staying another 24 months with them?

    Well, as you seemed to be happy with your airtime for £5, you effectively pay 24x£5+£117.50=£237.50 for the phone. Even if you cancel the contract straight after it starts the handset will cost you 24x£10+£117.50=£357.50 that is at least about £60 less than it costs sim-free or on PAYG.

    Make sure that for £10 you get everything you need.

    When you put it like that it does not seem worth it. I really want more minutes for other networks because I always go way over with my minutes. 100 minutes is not enough.

    T-mobile offered my brother:

    600min to other networks
    unlimited t-mobile calls
    unlimited texts
    300 texts free
    with Samsung galaxy S2.

    For £20 a month.

    Initially I thought my deal was better than my brother's. Should I ask for that deal instead of the one they offered me. It's highly unlikely that they agree to it. But I could try.

    I just like this bit. LOL.
    This reminds me Hilbert's paradox of the Grand Hotel

    BTW, you said nothing about the internet.
