IS there such a thing as a Family Contract?

Hi

My husband, son and I all have mobile phones. I am trying to cut costs and wondered if anyone knows of any mobile companies that do a contract to include all three of us on seperate numbers but only has 1 invoice? I think Tmobile do a package for £55/month for 2 people and then you add extras on for £15 per month. This includes a phone each and 500 minutes and 300 texts a month - can anyone beat this?

Buy your bananas in bunches of 5 on Sunday. Then arrange them in order of ripeness and write a day of the week on each banana in felt pen, Monday on the ripest, Friday on the greenest to save time making those decisions on a hectic weekday morning

  • Orange offer Your Group for families, all handsets are under one main one, and all get unlimited calls between each other. There is no monthly charge, Pay Monthly handsets can be added free, but if you add a PAYG it needs a £10 compulsary topup.

  • Vodafone do something similar.

    Everyone has to be with vodafone and for £5 a month (only 1 person pays) you get unlimited calls between you.

    Orange used to have a proper family traffic but I think they have now stop it :-(. Which might of been quite good for you. But to get what you want look at the business traffic all the network have. There they have shared minutes, SMS, one invoice etc.. I would normally have a look at them all and see which one is cheaper but still recovering from food posion on the weekend
  • Vodafone do offer the Vodafone Family service which allows you to call between the vodafone numbers and only the group owner pays the monthly charge.

    no, it's still going!!! the orange one is a good one, the free calls mean you can often go on a lower tariff than you otherwise would. you also still get your magic numbers each!
    :p It is better to be thought of as an idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt
