Afternoon all,

Pickin up my iphone later on this afternoon and obv I'm gonna jailbreak it until my contract is up in november (I couldnt wait any longer!) - my question relates to an o2 data bundle?

How much is it per month? I cant seem to find any reference anywhere!

Ta las

It's a bolt on to simplicity isn't it?

itsallaboutyou · 18 Apr 2008 at 15:01

I dont know!

I'm currently paying £35 for my texts and calls and i never go over it. I actually bought it through the other carphone place with 9 months half price line rental (which I've managed to collect already so it didnt work out too scandalous!)

I assume I can bring up o2 and get a bolt on?

Its just a price i'm after.. and I'm probably being thick and not looking properly!

Any help appreciated...again!

EDIT// is it the £7.50 wifi bolt on - thats the cloud innit?

as far as I'm aware theres no such thing as a unlimited data; unless its a special thing for the iphone only.

It will cost £7.50 per month as a bolt on but thats a fair usage of 400 mb a month before they charge you.

It's £25 the cheapest deal I believe.

Sorry perhaps I should have phrased that better! Yup that sounds about right to me...

Cheers...

Any more info??

O2 said:
The O2 Web Bolt On can only be used for internet browsing on your phone. A fair use policy applies and if your usage substantially exceeds that of other users, which is normally expected to be below 200MB/month, you will be charged standard rates for additional browsing. We will send you a warning text message advising you to limit your usage before this occurs and a text message to confirm when you are being charged

Thats under the Pay&go section, so i dunno if its different for contract.

I can remember seeing an o2 deal when it came to data for the iphone... may be worth looking into it to see which one you are on

Iphone Terms

or you may just be on a normal one.... you arleady on o2 as they will upgrade you at anytime it you upgrade to the iphone (is that offer still on?)

HINT: T mobile web n walk max is unlimited - well its 1GB per month fair usage no addition data charages for extra 10 pounds a month.

itsallaboutyou · 18 Apr 2008 at 15:44

Ah...

Cheers dude - I'll ask and see whats goin on with it... surely they must be able to offer me something!

I've been with them for over 6 years! Although that counts for naff all!

if your already on o2 they will upgrade you at anytime, you will need to pay the £169 (whatever it is) for the iphone (why??? I thought I was an apple fanboy).

If you joined or upgraded after 18th September 2007
You have a choice, you can either:
(i) enter into a second pay monthly contract whilst keeping your existing contract; or
(ii) start a new contract by paying a one-off transfer charge of £219 instead of the remaining monthly charges on your existing contract.

O2 Simplicity and O2 Pay & Go customers will not be required to pay any additional charges.

but I think that fee of has changed to £169

If you are on tariff gives you more than 600 mins free call you can get the "two for the price of one" deal that they doing on bolt ons at the moment. which for £7.50 gives you unlimited data (as discuss is 400 mb a month; lol) and your can choice from unlimited weekend calls or 200 xtra x-net mins or unlimted fixed line. Thats at the carphone warehouse, while I think phones 4u are doing a 12 months half price on a 18 months contract but they can't do upgrades..

but do ask them about the iphone tariff it may be better... which is
Up to 3000 inclusive minutes per month
500 inclusive texts per month
Unlimited data and Wi-Fi
Reduced roaming rates
Minimum 18 month contract

hope this helps

Am I right in thinking that the cheapest data bundle available is 22.50?
£15 for the contract, 7.50 bundle?
Is there a pay as you go or a cheaper package for this?

jrodga2k5 · 18 Apr 2008 at 17:31

TO be fair I quite like the £25 O2 simplicity bundle.

600mins anytime
1000 texts
and then you select your free bolt on as unlimited Internet and your sorted

as far as I'm aware yes... on t mobile; 1 GB fair usage no addition data costs for an extra £4.95 a month you get 3 GB fair usage and msn to work (theres ways around that on the 1gb a month) the only really advantage is that you get hspda enabled!... the data package is an extra 34.99 pounds (me thinks) all on t mobile...

You can go Pay&Go and just get the web bolt-on for £7.50. So essentially its £7.50 only + whatever you pay for a top-up. Thats what i will do IF i get the iPhone
