T-mobile sim only - PAYG phone

Hi,

I have recently been accepted for a sim only contract but need a nice phone to go with it.

My issue is that all payg phones need to be bought with a top up but I already have a contract sim.

Is there any way round this?

Thanks

    You can buy a sim-free phone instead, but you'll find that often it might cost more than the same phone on PAYG with a topup.

    If you buy a PAYG phone from Orange and have to pay for a £10 topup it won't be wasted.

    You can pop in the Orange sim on Wednesdays and get 2 for the price of 1 at the cinema (and also at Pizza Express).

    A PAYG phone from Orange will be locked to Orange. Much better (and most likely cheaper) is to by Orange PAYG phone from CPW or P4U.
