o2 unlimted texts and the iphone

Just a quick one for you guys, anyone heard about o2 stopping doing the unlimited text bolt-on?

As I was told it has been stopped for iphone customers and there is no product to replace it?

But all the stuff in the store and the website still says you can get it, so most confused

Not heard of that one to be honest, unlimted text plans attract lots of customers and cost the network the least outlay, therefore very unlikely to be ever binned!

my mrs works in O2 sales and she says deffo nothing happening at the moment, older tariffs are affected by some minor changes to bolt ons, but nothing thats been touted.
I wait to be corrected mind as i work for Orange and would love to see O2 screw their customers over!

It's not necessarily screwing people over, as the ones who have it will retain it. It just won't be offered to new customers. It's a bit like me still having 'Stop the Clock' on vodafone. I only pay for the first 3 minutes off peak and at weekends (well, off my minute quota) and the rest of the hour is free. No longer availabl, but will be if I retain my contract on the upgrade.
