New iPhone Tarrifs

It's better but pity O2's data charges and bundles are still horrific. Bit criminal with a handset like the iphone.

Data is unlimited on the iPhone tariff (yes, real unlimited) and always has been, hardly horrific. :D

Also on a slightly different note, look at the thread further down regarding O2's tariffs for 'normal' contracts as they are changing too in Feb.

EDIT: whoops, the normal o2 tariff thread I saw wasn't on this forum, it was here:

I also came from an N95 Sagalout, although mine is still gathering dust on a shelf as it has been since November. I originally only intended to swap to an iPhone for a week or so to test with but after actually using it for a few days there was no way I wanted to go back to a legacy handset. Must sell the N95 while they are still worth something.

I would barely ever bother with the internet with the N95, it was just sooooo fiddly. With the iPhone I am browsing at least a few times a day, on the train, in bed - even on the loo!

I need more texts. I go over 500 every month :(

It's lame that on a £45 contract I'll still be limited to 500 texts. I may as well downgrade to £35 now as 600 minutes for me is about right.

You'd think they'd so something like £45 - 750txts, £75 - 1000txts.

Isn't there some kind of bolt on you can get that you could put that saved tenner towards?

EDIT: yeah you can get 200 extra messages for 9 quid or 400 for 16:

..£1 a day = £31 a month on data alone - now THATS horrific! 3 or Tmobile are the only companies to go for mobile data.

I think you've completely missed the point of the £1 a day thing, never mind. Stick with what you have if you are happy. :)

"A fair use of 200MB per month applies to the O2 Web Bolt On" - Come on guys stop defending o2, they need to sort out their data rates, 200Mb certainly isnt 'unlimited', I have no idea how they get away with it.

I certainly wasn't defending any fair usage policies, I was talking about the £1 daily maximum charge? :confused:

Fair usage policies do indeed suck, but O2 are probably one of the better companies with regards to this as as long as you are only using the phone for browsing/downloading then it is indeed unlimited (even over 200mb). Their 'excessive use policy' only applies to people using their phones as modems so if you do download over 200mb on your PC then clearly you would be better off at a different provider who have a tariff to suit you.

But, this all has nothing to do with the original conversation regarding people having a £1 cap on data charges per day, which will save a lot of people money.

Well you'd have to pay £42.50 (£35 + £7.50) if you wanted unlimited texts on an iPhone tariff. It's whether you want to pay £2.50 more than you do currently or not that counts.
