choosing mobile network

hello all. im choosing a network provider with the best sim deal. so far tmobile has been offering the best cheapest deals. however ive seen some reviews for tmobile and its not very good. i am with o2 and have difficulties with using internet/wifi out and about. now i know theres always going to be a problem with every network provider but what i dont want is to be binded into a contract for the next 12 months where im stuck with it no connection or get cut off whilst talking/poor customer service etc.. before o2 i was with 3g and its was terrible connection and terrible customer service therefor went to to o2.
ideally i need 500 minutes and 1gig data o2 are £21 wereas tmobile with cashback deals are anything between £6-£9.50, but im just not sure which network to go to as ratings vary.
im in yorkshire leeds/wakefield area and wondered if tmobile network is ok and safe.any bad or good experiences?
thank you:):)

    The network's name is '3', not '3g'.

    I don't care about 'ratings'. What I do care about is the signal and the price.
    If you don't like O2 and '3', then then you have to chose between Vodafone and EE/Orange/Tmobile and their virtual networks.
    Order two free PAYG sims and check the signal first in your places of interest.

    BTW, thank you for splitting your post into paragraphs, but adding some capital letters would be even better.

    Signal test at home and any other place you use the mobile frequently .
