I was just looking at their deals out of interest.
The ONLY reason I stuck with 3 is because of their minutes.
But now I've got a huge question. (actually many questions)

First of all, the Flext 200 (or is it 250 plan)
Am I able to get over 1000 mins a month?


How does it 'adjust' usage?

it says there is a 20% introductory discount.. so does that makes it around 37.50 a month I think. Is that for the whole year? (I couldn't find where it says 20% of x number of months.


@Masseur, what is the best phone I should get after the tarriff. I'm considering those i-Mates.

update:
I realized that the K-Jam also has wifi, (the website didn't mention that)
Sadly they both have 65k screens but I can live with that.
Basically I want to get the best phone with that deal and the K-Jam also comes with Co-Pilot (and I always wanted a GPS system)

Does the K-Jam freeze up as much as the Jam did? (I remember resetting it at least 5 times a day) Of course resetting was fast, but it was a hassle.

I have an XDA 2S/Imate PDA2K, which has wifi and can take satnav, which I think is the same as the T-Mob's MDA 3 or something like that. I found it was crashing 4-5 times a day, till I deleted a little file that stopped the O2 front screen from loading, now I'd be unlucky if it crashed once or twice a day! Not sure how stable the T-Mob version is, but I think it's better than the one O2 have mucked about with!

If you took the £37.50 a month deal then in theory you could use 1,275 minutes of calls per month if you don't use any texts.

The discount is for the duration you keep the contract for so in theory it can be for life.

Hope that helps.

keep in mind that the flext tarrifs are 18 month contracts. This is what is putting me off them. Other thans this they do seem a good deal.

I do hope the k-Jam is better than the original jam. Mine didnt crash that often but it would do it at the most annoying times i.e. if i recieved a call it would lock up (maybe only once a day but still WELL annoying). This is what made me get rid of it in the end the fact that is couldnt do the basics well enough for my likeing. That said i have no experience of the windows mobile 5 which could be lots better.

Where do you want me to start?...well i had the the usual Trade-Mark weak single issues associated with T-Mobile,calls constantly dropping,incorrect bills,(usually over charged).they also wanted to charge me for upgrades although i had'nt upgraded in 2 years on the same contract..I mean i stayed very patient and loyal to t-mobile for a number of years but it all got too much..thats why i will never trust them ever again.
