I'm currently looking at buying a Orange M3100 on contract from the above site.

The package is an 18month contract and offers 500 free texts and minutes. However, I'm wanting to know the price of surfing the internet (if it's free) picture messages, 3G calls etc but I can't find the full tariff.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to see the full tariff?!
 
LOL...This has turned into a silly thread.

I now understand you can't get free net unless you pay like £75 a month!

Is there any decent PDA/Phone that you can get on a Tariff that includes free texts and free internet for a decent price monthly?

Or is this impossible?!
 
Vario II ( same as the 3100 ) + T-Mobile seems to have the best data deals at the moment. I use a 3100 tho and data use seems surprisingly low so far ( I'm on a £25 contract with the 10meg ( £8 ) data addon which based on the check I made recently should be ample for me and I do use the net a fair bit.

That comes out at £33 and I think the T-Mobile deal is over £40.
 
Web and walk has internet included however your only allowed to browse the internet, not do anything else like download etc. Web and walk pro doesn't have those restrictions. Of course calls over 3g like skype and stuff are banned.
 
Aha, thanks!

So if I go for Flext 35 + web'n'walk, my monthly allowance is £180, what does this mean? Do I get charged for internet in theory and can't go over £180?

No. surfing on the phone is unlimited + free due to you paying the £7.5 for w'n'w.

The allowance is basically your call credit, instead of X mins + X txt, you get an allowance which your mins + txt come out of..
 
Ahh, thats good then. I take it the £7.50 is added onto the £30 automatically?

So I'm just paying £30 full stop every month. And unless I go over with £190 with texts and calls I'm fine...?

Is there a function on the phone that you can track how much credit you've used etc?

Right erm, if you add W'n'W at the time of purchase it can lower the price of the phone and becomes part of the 18month contract, if you get it after you take out your contract then W'n'W can be taken off after a month.

Either way you would be billed once for £37.50 although iirc T-Mobile direct has upto £5 off each plan at the moment

I think (as im on o2) that you get a weekly text on how much allowance you have left
 
Ok...

Well I've chose the tariff "Flext 35 + web'n'walk" and the phone "T-Mobile MDA Vario II "

But I haven't been prompted to add £7.50 on for web 'n' talk, so surely it's just included in the £30 monthly charge?

...and then it goes up to £37.50 after 3 months.
