Hey there fellow esato-ers!

i am looking for advice on a new phone contract. i basically want 500 texts....minutes are negotable. dont want to be spending more than 25 a month. The k750i on O2 for 20 a month with 500 texts and 1000 offpeak minutes is looking good at the moment, was wondering if anyone had a better idea!

thanks.....

it is hard to match the o2 online tarrifs especially if you are after the text messages. Orange match the o2 online 200 but this is £30 from both o2 and orange. If you are a student though and are willing to pay a little bit more orange do a good student deall - 200 X-network mins, 1000 texts!!! and v.cheap evening calls if you use up your mins. Apart from that there isnt much else! I kno this because i have been looking myself as i am currently with o2 cos their tarrif is great for me as i send so many texts - however their customer service is abysmal so i want to leave them - so i am probably going to go with orange unless o2 offer me a v.special deal to convince me to stay.

Hope this helps a bit,
Tom

Curve...

Why not consider Three?

Half price line rental for 3-6 months depending on the 12/18 month contract option. At the mo you can get 500 mins & 250 texts for £17.50 a month.

U could always add a text bolt on @ £10 for 200.
