1 month contracts...

Hi.
Im currently getting robbed £30 a month by Orange for 1000txts and 200mins.
The contract ran out in september.

I'd like to change it to a sim only, 1 month contract jobbo, as i can get the same/better with other companies for £20 a month.

What i want to know is, do the TMobile ones, for example, allows things like W&W to be put on? Or is that full contract only?

Thanks in advance all.

But i dont want a new contract or a new phone.
A new contract would tie me in for 12-18 months. I dont want that.

T-Mobile and 02 do sim only rolling monthly contracts @ £15 per month. The 02 one is for 200mins 400texts + unlimited 02 to 02 calls and the T-Mobile one is 200mins and 800 texts (600 in store I believe).

I was going to move to the T-Mobile one but called CPW and they made me a pretty good offer for 400 x-net mins and 1000 texts for £15 a month - which is half what i'm paying now

I've just done this. I went with O2 simplicity. Also it's not really advertised but if you buy a phone outright and a simplicity tariff at the same time you will get a 30% discount on the phone and still be on a 30day contract.

If you go with o2 online for 25pounds a month you can get 600mins xnet, 1000txts and the a bolt on of your choice (I went for unlimited internet) + they give you the international calling package. The other benfit of o2 is that they count video minutes as voice minutes so you can make as many video calls as you like

So for £25 a month i can have more minutes, the same txts, and a bolt on?

Yes, you've got it correct.

yak.h'cir · 25 Mar 2008 at 17:54

Indeed you can! Check out this link for the details: http://shop.o2.co.uk/tariffs/sim_only

Notice you can change the bolt on for the 25pound tariff but for the 15pound tariff you're stuck with the unlimited o2 to o2 calls (not that unlimited calls to any o2 phone at any time is a bad thing!!!)

Other options you could pick for your free bolt-on are:
Unlimited land line calls
Free weekend calls to anynetwork
Unlimited internet
Unlimited texts
or 200 extra anytime minutes

It says on the drop down thing that the bolt-ons cost £7.50?

It only costs £7.50 for any additional ones that you choose. You can choose one for free, and you can just choose the data one for your first free bundle.
