Makes it £91 for the full 12 months, £7.59 per month effectively.
 
This is pretty much what I was looking for, was going to go to gift gaff... What's the fup on data?
 
According to the "Whats included" box on the tariff page it just says unlimited.

The Full Monty Plan

To join, you'll need to pass our standard credit checks and promise to stay with us for 24 months. All services are within the UK only. Your monthly payment is for your internet on your phone, your WiFi allowance and your inclusive minutes and texts.

If you join Full Monty 36 you'll get 2000 minutes to check your voicemail, to call the customers of other UK mobile networks and to call landlines starting with 01, 02 and 03 (excluding the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man). You'll also get unlimited calls other T-Mobile customers and unlimited texts to UK mobile networks and landlines starting with 01, 02 and 03 (excluding the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man) .

On all our other Full Monty plans you'll get unlimited minutes to call other customers of UK mobile networks, to check your voicemail and to call landlines starting with 01, 02 and 03 (excluding the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man). You'll also get unlimited texts to UK mobile networks and landlines starting 01, 02 and 03 (excluding the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man).

Our Full Monty plans will give you unlimited use of our internet on your phone service when you're in the UK. This means you can use as many MB/GB as you like and no fair use policy will apply. Please note, internet on your phone excludes using your phone as a modem (tethering) and network traffic controls apply. Your peer to peer file sharing experience will also be slower during peak hours. Remember, you can only use your SIM card in a mobile phone and you'll need internet coverage, check it at t-mobile.co.uk/streetcheck. To be clear, this means if you try to use your SIM in a mobile broadband enabled device you won't be able to get online. If you choose a BlackBerry phone from us, you’ll also get BlackBerry Mail and BBM free (usually £5 a month) too. No fair use policy applies to the BlackBerry Mail booster.

In addition to our internet on your phone service, you'll also get access to our preferred WiFi partner's WiFi network; presently this is the BT Wi-Fi network excluding any sites providing access to any organisation or location which is part of the Olympic Games in London in 2012 . The BT Wi-Fi terms, including those about acceptable use, will also apply to you. You can see these at http://www.btwifi.co.uk/terms-and-conditions/acceptable-use-policy.jsp. As we aren't the provider of the WiFi service, we aren't responsible for whether there is WiFi available where you want it, or for the quality of that service. We might swap your WiFi service to another preferred partner in future, provided that you get the same experience.

These plans are for normal person to person use from your phone and are subject to your acceptance of our standard terms and conditions for pay monthly services. We monitor use in accordance with those terms. The terms state that you can't use these plans to sell access to our network to anyone else. They are also not to be used for anything unlawful or to send nuisance communications. At the moment, we'll decide that you're breaking these terms if you text more than 200 different numbers in a month. Remember, we're free to decide that other types of use may also be breaking this term. If you do break this term, we'll contact you and ask you to stop and if you don't then we may disconnect your SIM card from our network.

Calls to our technical customer operations team will cost £1 a call and calls to numbers starting with 070, 08 (including 0870), 09 and 118 are not included in your inclusive allowance. Calls to 070 numbers cost up to 77p/min. 08 numbers cost up to 40p/min and 09 numbers cost up to 255p/min. See www.t-mobile.co.uk/help&support/priceplans for further information.

Incredible offer on what is probably the best network overall. Was really tempted to go on it but those who contact me the most who are already on giffgaff would have to move from the £5 Hokey Cokey goodybag (with 60 minutes, 300 texts and unlimited gg-to-gg) to the £5 text-only goodybag.

Shame :(
 
Damn thats a bloody good offer, my renewal wqas up back in Dec and i went over to a 12mth rolling contract, im paying £21 a mth with unlimited everything. So this seems to be the same offer but at a lower price.

I have a voda line thats coming up for renewal in March and am looking at maybe moving to another network, dont want a contract but am interested in a 12mth rolling contract. Sadly i imagine this offer will be finished by then but hopefully when my voda line comes up for renewal, they will have some more offers avail.
 
My contract expires in March, so quite tempted to maybe get this. However I was t-mobile before and I didn't like them, this was years ago though. Oh, and I'd also lose O2 rewards :(
 
That sounds amazing. Very tempted to jump from Giffgaff.

Anyone know if I have to port my number at signup or can I do it later when I'm happy with the signal and decide to stay?


Answered my second question but I'll leave it here in case it helps other people:

Is Orange/TMob fully integrated at the network level now? Up until a month ago I was Orange and got good signal in all my normal locations. Should I assume the same from TMob?

TMob said:
"With smart signal sharing our network and the Orange network now work together better than ever so your smartphone will automatically check to see which network has better coverage and switch you over without you even noticing."

but is then slightly contradicted by:

"With using Orange signal, will I always be on the network which has the best signal strength?

No. Your phone will always ‘look’ for the home network first, whether this is a 3G or 2G signal. If the phone can’t find the home network signal the phone will automatically switch to the other network."

Aaaaaand I just signed up to Three a few days ago.

Bah not bothered, still only paying £11 for truly ultd data.
 
That's a great deal but do you want to be tied into a 3G tariff for 12months when we'll start getting 4G on other networks this Summer?

Of course you could wait til January 2014 as coverage will likely be poor for sometime but still if you want to be on the cutting edge you don't want to get locked in right now.
 
Turbo edit: In reply to the question of network integration

Them trixy hobbits, both ways of phrasing it are technically right but here's reality.

On initialisation, use home over secondary.
On low signal (as in, bugger all, i can't maintain a decent link) prefer stronger of the two (so basically - switch). Poll for signal for 30 minutes, if home is not greater than secondary after 30mins stop polling and stay on secondary. On signal loss of secondary, reset to start (poll, prefer home over secondary).

If you use manual network control you can override the behaviour (but there's only 1 edge case where this is useful - when home provides a lower spec interface than the secondary, eg home-3G vs secondary-HSPA+, I believe unless it's changed recently, it will prefer home).

Unfortunately you only know which network you're on now by checking the network ID (many apps will tell you this).
 
Wow, a sick offer that. i left T-mobile about 4-5 months ago. as they where not giving out any good retention deals. So joined Three sim only deals.

T-mobile coverage is brilliant around my end. so that wont be a problem for me. As im removing Sky sports package, watch a lot of games on skyGo. But wont be in a weeks time, as i need to make some cutbacks.

This will be ideal for me. Now to ring up for my PAC Code.
 
The topcashback amount was reduced to £75.75 yesterday :(
Pity though that still comes out at £9.69 pm. Also gives credibility to the fact the cashback wasn't an error on what is already a heavily discounted offer :)

I decided the deal is not for me. I never use many mins a month but do tend to call non local numbers.

TMob - free phone, 08xx are all 40p a min.

Giffgaff - free phone are free, and the usual 08 numbers are 12p a min.
 
Still in two minds if i wanna go forward with this deal.

I'm with Three at the moment, and its been awsome. Not let me down so far. Only been with them for almost 5 months. On a 30 day sim only deal (200mins Free text and all you can eat data) £12.90 a month.

Three have offered £15 per month for 600min free texts free calls to Three and all you can eat data.

I do go through roughly about 8-10gb data. But thats going to drop now as i have canclleded Sky Sports package. Will still go through roughly 1.5-2gb per month now.

Still in two minds. Three and Tmobile reception here is excellent.
