Is there any hidden charges?

Hi I'm currently with Orange and have been for almost 18 months paying £35 a month for one oftheir contract deals(can't remember which right now) I get 300free minutes anytime any network and 600 free texts and free broadband. Bills are always £35 occassionally £37 if I've used my phonebanking a few times so happy enough with that and I'd spend more getting a payg phone plus broadband I think. We never use our house phone just use my free minutes.

Just looking to change tarriffs just now and am thinking of going with their £30 tarriff which gives me 200 minutes anytime any network and unlimited texts and free broadband and £100 credit meaning my first 3 months would basically be free, but does anyone know if I'm missing any hidden charges that you have heard of with this?

I definately don't want to go with O2 as have had nightmares with them in the past taking double payments etc and refusing to pay it back plus their tarriffs always work out more expensive for me(was on what they classed as their best tarriff for me and was paying £120 a month swapped to orange and now £35 a month!)
