Low user with 2g capability

jamels2

Hi I've seen O2 do a PAYG with unlimited mins and text for £5 a month. I've also seen Tesco 12 months sim only 500 mins and 2gb for 7.50 a month.
I have both a smartphone and Nokia basic phone.
Are these the best two deals for a fixed price?
My friend uses EE and they put the price up a little each year which I don't like.
Is it worth having data for emergencies or can I get by with WiFi at home and at hotel/cafes?

Or a cashback contract for £3.50 (could be less but not advisable) after cashback with unlimited minutes and 1GB or more as well as a phone. RPI increases will be on the full contract price of around £20 a month.

If you are a low user look at 1pmobile.com who use the EE network.
You just have to top up £10 every 120 days.
Calls cost 1p a min, texts costs 1p each and data costs 1p per mb. With a name like 1p cant see that they will put up their prices for some time!
If you want more data you can buy a boost for 30 days.

It will tell you if you can get 2g.
