New Contract Advice?
Hi Everyone,
My contract is just coming to an end at the end of Feb, and I'm going to switch it over to PAYG, give the phone to my mum, and look for a new deal. Just wondering if anyone's got any quick advice, cos wading through these price comparison sites is pretty tiring, I have to say.
The deal that's just finishing was pretty sweet, I think. A Sony-Ericsson W810i (325 mins + 150 txts) for £16 a month (that's including insurance). 18 month contract, cashback (no problems with that, although two weeks isn't much time to send the bills off). It was through buymobilephones. From a quick glance at their site, they seem to have scaled back the extent of the savings from their cashback deals.
I dunnow, I dunnow, but I do need to decide fairly soon. Do the "gift" deals sometimes work out cheaper? I was just thinking that I might go for a laptop.
Any ideas?
TIA,
H
