Is there no easy way to compare tariffs?

I've been trying to do some research on the cheapest available tariff for the samsung galaxy s3 yet I'm lost in a miriad of websites each offering similar deals that don't appear on other sites.

So is there one source that accurately compares all these deals floating around? I've tried omio but for some reason it's only giving me vodafone tariffs.

I haven't seen any source that compares everything including the small niche providers such as Tesco Mobile, Lebara, Utility Warehouse and talkmobile.....so I'll subscribe to this thread in case someone knows of a source.

Mobiles dot co dot uk

Others have £200 for phone, tesco phone shop had one for £1 more but they said I couldn't remove the bolt on

Select all other networks except Voda in the filter and you'll get plenty of other tariffs.

Tesco Mobile and Talkmobile are on Omio (and not only on Omio I think).
Lebara sell just 3 basic Nokias.

omio is definitely only giving me vodafone tariffs, is the 32Gb version only available with them or something?

Is there a catch with giffgaff, it looks like a very good deal. Buying the phone SIM free for £500 and then £10 a month on GG with 250 mins, unlimited texts and unlimited data. No contract and works out cheaper then any contract I've seen.

Anything without a contract will always be better - leaving you in control and the ability to leave if circumstances change. And no need to worry about your credit file either!

You will be paying a total of £740 doing it via giff gaff over 24 months. The mobiles deal mentioned earlier works out at £624 (before line rental cashback £585 after, plus if TCB tracks it takes it down to £554.70) but of course you are tied to a contract. It's with Tmobile 300 mins, unlimited text and 750mb data.
I am leaving giff gaff for this contract as I don't have enough confidence in them to transfer over my number. I suggest you read the giff gaff service forum and look at how many outages, goody bag problems, porting problems and activation problems they have. I do like some of the giff gaff features but have had nothing but trouble since joining them unfortunately.
