Free W850i delivered tomorrow (saturday)

£12.50 for the first 12 months
and £25 for the remaining 6.

T-Mobile web'n'walk.

£35 per month all-in.

£60 worth of calls and texts included, covers any calls to anyone including international, only pay once I've gone over the £60 limit at standard prices (I haven't even got close yet.........)

Shiny new Nokia N73 for free.

3G/GPRS 24/7 internet access, either on the phone (bit tricky as the screen is so small, but it IS possible) or on my laptop using the phone as a modem.

Hmm might be a good place to ask for phone advice Wink

Me: I rarely use my mobile, and when I do its as a mobile, ie not a camera or anything. I am pay-as-ya-go and top up a tenner every 3 months. Seriously.

Now, my phone is screwed, so I am looking for a new replacement. I have NO idea whats out there or whats what, so any advice would be welcome Smile The only thing I'd like is bluetooth and some way of editing all the phone data on a PC (bluetooth is fine). If I can use the phone as a reminder, ie calendar sync'd by activesync from the PC, thats good too.

Thanks in advance Wink

£35 a month for £180 of credit at 50% discount for being a dealer.

Works out at

£17.50/month for
600 minutes / 600 texts, or
1000 minutes / 400 texts...

Just depends on how I use the credit really.

£30 a month with a free Nokia N80, unlimited texts and 10 hours anytime any network minutes Smile

Also have never been charged for using the phone to call and text to UK from Spain Thumbs Up think that's a mistake rather than part of my contract though hehe

I feel robbed!
Been with 02 for 2 years, Just gone into my 3rd.
Last year I had D900 plus £12 line rental (half price) 400 texts 400 mins each month for £25.
Rang to renew my contract 4 weeks ago - E900 200 mins i think and 400 text but the line rental offer wasnt avalible anymore so now paying £35 a month. Not bad, but concidering they have taken a shit load from me they could of made it cheaper. Thumbs Down

Renewed with O2 just before christmas. Got £100 credited to my account and line rental halved to £15 for 200 minutes and 100 texts.
So it's working in at 6 months free then £15 or £7.50 a month.

Alright, my tip for those who are going to renew is your existing contract, tell them that you have seen network x's offer and think you would rather go with them, or just talk about cancelling.

You should be put through to retentions, they will come up with a better and personalized plan for you that the normal operators cannot.
