3G and 4G

Hi,

I went for this mobile package (o2) which I thought was pretty good until I found that the phone they were offering didn't have a 4G capeability. I then pulled back from signing the contract. However, I'm not at all sure if getting a 4G phone is that much of a benefit. What are your thoughts? Thanks.

    Why do you want 4G?

    What benefit will it give you?

    Theres's no voice services on 4G, so you still need 3G. That said, a 4G phone (for faster data) costs more, and the data costs broadly the same so the MSE way is to stick with 3G....

    4g coverage isn't that great yet, so no real gain unless in big citys
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
