contract advice for a newbie

wohic

At the sprightly young age of 45 I want my first contact phone. I am not a big talker but do use internet a lot as I run a couple of Facebook pages and moderate a forum. I would like a smart phone I think . Does anyone know the best new customer deals ?
Thank you

Why does it have to be a contract?
And I think you have to select the handset first, then start looking for the best deals for it of similar ones.

IMO, for a forum you need a tablet or Galaxy Note at least.

pay as you go , I always run out of credit . I have a disabled epileptic daughter and need to have phone, contract seems a better bet to me ... perhaps I need to go to phones for you and ask their advice

stay away from phones 4 u. They will rip you off. Just use them to look at the phones and demo handsets.

You need to decide on the type of phone you want first before i recommend a good deal to you. Also how many minutes do you use on pay as you go? How much were you topping up before and how long did it last you?

Well, in this case you are likely to need not just a contract, but a contract with unlimited data. However, you can get unlimited data on PAYG as well for £12 with 250 minutes and unlimited texts thrown in.
