7 year itch O2 to tesco mobile

I'm currently on a sim only deal from o2,
600 mins, 1000 texts u/l data, the bonus being mms is classed as 4 texts likewise texts from abroad, voicemail is included, even when I used to tether every working day I rarely hit 1gb of data, my monthly is £21, now on Tesco mobile I can get 750 mins 5000 text and 2gb of 4g data.
It seems even if did send 10 mms on tesco I would still have a lower monthly bill, is there any other 'hidden' costs or catches to switching to tesco mobile?

  • If you check Tesco's website you will find that you can cap contracts so that you don't get any huge bills. It does involve a one off £10 payment for non-expiring credit so that you have £10 to use if you reach your cap.
    This ensures that you don't suddenly get cut off without warning and limits the overspend to the £10 only.
    You need to specify the cap when ordering though.
