Contract ending soon(ish) best way to proceed

O2 were crud when my contract ended. I told them about what I could get with Giff gaff (£10 a month auto top up gets my 500 mins unlimited texts and 1gb data). They could just about match that but only on a 12 month sim only deal. I'd been with them about 4 years.
If you're on O2 already then Giffgaff uses the same network, you can put a new sim card straight in and you'll get the same coverage you do now.
I read about the ovivo deal when I was looking...but I read that you get quite a lot of adverts when surfing the web? That was a big factor in me looking elsewhere.
To be honest, a £10.00 per month Giff Gaff deal would work out more expensive over 24 months than the £12.50 a month Tesco offer (once you factor in the up front cost of the phone.)
The Ovivo deal would obviously be cheaper but as you say the adverts would be an annoyance - you don't get anything for nothing0 -
How much extra did you pay this year for calls etc that went over your bundle, not including 0844/5 calls? You need to get sufficient minutes to cover peak use which can make std charge look small.0
