    OK so I've been bakc to Orange

    Galaxy S for £10
    400 minutes
    1300 texts
    unlimited land line
    500 mg Data
    £17.87 pm

    or

    Galaxy S
    £15.21 – unlimited ll
    100 network mins
    Magic numbers
    300 texts
    500 mb internet

    My average usage is 127 minutes....
    What do you guys think?
    Both sound really good deals. The best for you??? Do you send many texts, and are your voice calls generally to landlines or mobiles?
  • I currently pay £22 a month for Dolphin 30 (get 800 mins, 500 texts no internet) and my contract is up on 12th May. Had to phone before the last month because my phone is literally disintergrating!

    So on my 2nd call this week to retentions (1st call was hopeless) I got;
    HTC desire black £24.99
    700 mins
    free landline calls
    550 texts
    500mg internet
    get to keep my current magic numbers (5)

    For £25 a month inclusive of VAT
    I probably could have done a little bit better if I had held out a few weeks, but I thought that was a pretty fair deal.

    I currently pay £20 a month for Racoon 25 (300 texts, 200 mins, unlimited landline, no internet). I frequently go over £20 a month by about £5 (internet mainly). My contract ends on 27th April and it took 4 calls to retentions to get the following:

    HTC Desire HD Black
    £29.99 for handset

    600 mins
    Unlimited texts (fair usage of 3000)
    Unlimited internet (fair usage of 500mb)

    £20 a month for 24 months

    I'm a pretty low user on £15 a month at present and Retentions just offered me

    HTC Wildfire free
    200 mins
    1500 texts
    500gb data
    30 picture messages
    £10 p/m for 24months

    or HTC desire for £43 on same tariff

    Both seems fine to me and more than enough for my needs

    I'm currently in the last month of my 18 month contract. I've got at the moment :

    Racoon 25 - 200 anytime mins
    300 anytime texts
    200 loyalty mins
    Unlimited landline mins
    plus Free orange broadband
    and a magic number
    all for £10.21 per month inc vat (there's £10.21 loyalty credit reward per month)

    I'm not a heavy user, hardly ever go over the 200 anytime minutes. Don't particularly text very much either (less than 50 per month).

    Any advice from you good people on here at what I should be looking to get, I desperately need a new phone and obviously don't want to lose the free broadband! (had that for about 3-4 years now).
  • I'm currently in the last month of my 18 month contract. I'm a fairly light user and after the first pointless offer from retentions (which was just something they offered new customers on their website) I was offered:

    Samsung Galaxy S for 79.99

    400 minutes
    300 texts
    Magic Numbers
    500mb Internet
    Unlimited Landland Calls

    for £15 a month, for 18 months.

    To be honest, I probably paid a bit too much for the phone but I'm pretty happy with the deal.
  • Just been on the phone direct to retentions and got:
    HTC Desire HD Black: Free
    400 minutes (Canary 15)
    500mb data
    unlimited texts
    5 photo messages / month
    24 mth contract
    £13.50 per month.

    I think I did alright!

    You should easily be able to get better in terms of rental. Go to retentions if you have not yet!
