    How do you get a non-handset contract that runs for 2 years? Sim-only are usually either 30 day or 12 months.

    Sorry, but your post seems to be a bit fishy.

    easily.. the network offers.. the customer accepts.. not really difficult to figure out is it :rotfl:

    all of your posts seem fishy, nothing but a troll, hiding behind a higher post count.

    If all of my posts are fishy, then you would be better off accusing me of "trawling" rather than "trolling".

    (I also guess you didn't get the connection that I was making between "fishy" and the OP's MSE name. Obviously too obscure / subtle)
  • Would it not be more economic to buy the phone from Apple? Taking into account the contract price between the one you have and the one you want £12.67 x 18 (months left) + 26 x 6 (additional months on new contract) = £384.06 plus the phone cost on a £26 contract £249.99 in total is £634.05. On Apple they are only £529.00?!?!

    I would think with the more expensive pactage the op would be getting a better minutes and text allowance too.

    But agree a iphone new is £529 or an iphone 4 is only £319 new from apple.

    The £529 only gets the phone,, whilst the 634.05 includes a tariff , so apple is the better option if think wouldnt use £105 over the tariff.. either way its not gonna happen...

    £333 extra does not even cover the handset cost. Your daughter doesn't seem to understand that such handsets cost up to £500 and are hugely subsidised by the networks-hence 24m contracts.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    When my iphone kicks the bucket I will be looking at alternatives, as £529 is taking the !!!! now, what with the different sims AGAIN and the different sockets, I wouldn't mind but the iphone 5 is hardly any better than the 4/4s and is now even bigger which for me is not good.

    I only got the iphone 4 as it was the smallest iphone yet, now they have gone and increased the size again :mad:
