Non smart phone contract deal?

My husband is looking for a 'normal' phone and ideally wants lots (600 ish) of minutes and texts included. Has anyone seen any good deals?

Any recommendations appreciated.

  • Try looking on Uswitch or another price comparison website. Are you looking for a contract? Sim only or Pay as you Go, why are you anti smartphone? It's 2012 and i would argue smartphones are 'normal' and non-smartphones are abnormal.

    'Normal' is far too vague requirement as there is no any clear border between 'normal' phones and smartphones: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartphone
    The most basic 'normal' phones cost less then a tenner.

    For a sim-only deal check Talkmobile: 6x£12, 750m (£18 autochasback at CPW, possibly quidco/tcb).
  • Thanks both! Sorry 'normal' was very vague and quite right not very up to date. My husband isn't interested in mobile internet and just wants to make/receive calls and text.

    I'll check out the links above, he's after a contract rather than pay as you go...

    What about the Nokia 300? £14.75 per month with 600 minutes and unlimited texts.
