Paying Monthly
Hi all, first post here.
In the past few months I've noticed that I'm sending increasingly more and more text - so many that last month my bill was £65 over.
So this month I've gone on to the next price plan. I'm now paying £35 a month for the T-Mobile Flext plan with 11ish months left to run on an 18 month contract, which gives me £250 worth of calls or texts.
Now I've found that
for the same amount of money, I can get unlimited texts or 600 minutes with Vodaphone.
What I need to know is, is there any way I can sway T-Mobile to giving me the same / similar deal or am I going to have to wait out my contract?
Thanks
Dan

Once you are in a contract, and still under 3/4 of the way through it you have very little leverage with the networks, so they tend not to care if you can see a better deal elsewhere as you can't leave/get out of the contract (without paying extortionate amounts to pay off the contract).
I think it's usually when you're in the last 60 days of your contract then you can start negotiations for a better deal/upgrade. Anywhere before and you can only change between the pre-set plans.
You're just going to have to wait it out unfortunately. :sad:0
