Hi ppl

My mum / stepdad are both coming to the end of their Vodafone contracts and are looking for a new Off Peak Deal (stepdad works nights).

Can anyone recommend a good cheap deal with a decent phone please (doesn't have to have all the features but the more the better). They are currently on the 600 off peak, 50 text deals and would like something similar.

Can be on any Network (maybe not 3 though) just as long as they can ring each other.

Cheers

WJUK

    Personally I'd get a Dialaphone deal on o2 or vodafone:

    1,000 mins a month with 9 months half price line rental (on quite a few cheaper model phones), plus £10 for ordering online, plus £20-40 referral.

    Depends if they want the hassle of claiming the cashback, well worth it in my opinion.

    Works out to be roughly £10 per month, incl new phone.

    Cheers Darren - Any phones in particular?

    One thing guys - I am on Orange so if possible it might be a good thing for them to be able to call me "FREE" as such.

    Cheers

    Free phone and 12 months free line rental if you don't mind claiming cashback. They are one of the oldest established Internet mobile phone companies.

    1000 off peak mins per month to any network.
