    Seemed like a lot of hardwork when i read the app reviews on iTunes - Also people are saying its stopped working since the recent update?

    Mine is working fine since the latest update. It does takes a while to set up but there's nothing complicated about that and once you have it's brilliant. If you're abroad you can divert all calls to it and it sends you the message by email so it doesn't cost the caller or you a penny.

    Ok just got my offer which I have accepted!

    100 mins
    100 texts
    3GB Allowance
    free landline call booster

    free Samsung Galaxy Ace

    £8.50pm @24m

    I have the option to swap the Ace for a Wildfire @ £7.50pm @24m

    UPDATE

    Talked to them again and asked if i could pay for the phone instead
    so i can lower my monthly outgoing and get the 3gb allowance on £5 deal.

    Normally on the £5 sim only deal you get only 1gb allowance

    100 mins
    100 texts
    3GB Allowance
    free landline call booster

    £80 Samsung Galaxy Ace

    £5pm

    This my ideal call plan as i dont phone or text much but do use the internet
    a lot. I could see this easily being my price plan for life.
  • I thought tethering was against the Fair Usage Policy anyway?

    Can only stop iPhone tethering. So Android tether away if u want. No run on costs.

    Good deal, great phone.
  • just made the first of many calls, been offered Htc wildfire, motorola defy or galaxy ace for £10 p/m 24months or £15 p/m 18mnths, 100 mins, unlimited text/internet,

    cs guy said the desire hd would be over £25 per month and not worth paying for as phone used so little (he had a point)

    will have to look into these, any opinions on the handsets ?

    have to add, CS chap was very very good - if a little patronising about which handset to go for !

    Speak to upgrades or cancellations about your upgrade. C.S shouldn't be discussing upgrade options with you as its not there role.

    thanks t-mobn insider2, i actually ended up cancelling in the end.

    t-mobile couldnt offer better than £35 per month for the desire hd, i went elsewhere and got it for £20.42 per month/18 months - Ive had it 2 weeks now and LOVE LOVE LOVE this phone !!

    Does anyone know the situation with regards to upgrade and keeping the 3gb fair usage?

    T-Mobile SIM only offers:

    Has anyone any experience of either getting a rolling or 12 month SIM only retention offer?

    Thinking of getting the Galaxy S II via O2 (think this can be done for about £260) and using a T-Mobile SIM with 3GB data allowance.

    My wife's contract is coming to an end. She's on 18 mth Flext 40 deal. Would ideally like to keep the plan (intl callls come out of allowance) but obviously want to cut the outgoings. Has anyone been offered the Flext plan on a discount? What phones are thye offering at the moment? She has a LG Optimus at the moment. Thanks for help.

    In my last week of contract I called and arranged an upgrade that my husband is now using, unlimited text + data + 100 mins Samsung galaxy ace / 18 month contract = £13 per month

    After spending 15 mins trying to cancel his 3 mobile contract he was very impressed with my 4 minute call and arrival of the phone the next day !!
