"Mobile users pay £130 in addition to their monthly fee per year, according to a study by Moneysupermarket.com. The average user goes 23 minutes and 23 texts over their plan every month, indicating that most people are plan that is too low. Mobile users get 166 minutes and 133 text as a part of their plan on average.

The additional money paid by users adds up to £8 billion for the networks. Not surprisingly then, one dealer source tells Mobile, the networks want customers to be on plans with too few minutes and texts."
