Upgraded to a 18 Month, as they couldn't offer anymore Mins or txts for the price £30.

So 18 month contract:

600 Mins
Unlim txts
Free C905

£20 a month

Always makes me laugh, just going on price alone.

12 Month @ £30 a Month = £360 No Increase
18 Month @ £20 a Month = £360 Free C905, More Mins and Unlimited Texts.

Go figure ???

I know the chance of you going over your mins for a longer period but are they really that desperate to get everyone on 18 month contracts ??

Must be, Keeps the customer tied to them for another 6 months i suppose. And with the frebies, it makes it sound so tempting!

I think its a good deal. Yes the price works out the same. But think of it. If you are going to text more than 1000 sms and send an extra 100 sms its going to cost you about £12.00 at 0.12p per text. Whereas this way you get unlimited texts.

Also remember you are really only tied for 17 months as you can upgrade on the 17th month, unless your spend is about £50 or more (including any bolton's and insurance) if your paying about £50 a month more, you are able to upgrade 3 months early i believe.

That's a fantastic deal!
I'm paying £30 on a 12 month contract with O2 for 200mins&200texts (It's a cashback one) so i'll just say that voda are offering me the same allowance (it's all I use) with a free C905 for £20 or something

longer between network upgrades = less 'free' handsets shifted = less subsidy fees being paid by network?
