Contracts - Fixed amount bill?

I'm thinking about getting my son a contract phone because at the moment he is using ten pounds a week in top up cards :mad:

My own contract phone is £19 per month but I basically get £60 worth of credit to use on text, miutes or a mixture of the two BUT and here's the BUT!!!!!!

...I want a contract where apart from the amount set my son can NOT use over that amount so I'll never get a bill as such just the monthly contract cost

T mobile do something called U-fix which is pretty much what I want but I just wondered who else does so that I can compare prices/plans
Debts:
Student Loan
Student Overdraft
Cerdit Cards

Not ready to work out the total yet :D

  • No one else does anything like U-Fix.

    Whilst Networks might be able to set credit limits ,they can be easily exceeded,and cannot be relied on.
  • Errrmmm....That might be why I couldn't find anything then :D

    Thanks
    Debts:
    Student Loan
    Student Overdraft
    Cerdit Cards

    Not ready to work out the total yet :D

  • What payg network is he on at moment and what tariff is on. Is he a texter or a talker. It might be possible to lower cost of top ups.
