coming up the end of my 3 contract and looking for the best deal with any networks.

Willing to spend £30-35 a month on tarriff, need the most phone minutes and text as possible not bothered about interenet etc.

Anyone have any ideas

Your best bet is to go on all the providers websites and find the best deal you can. Then ring 3 and tell them the deal you've found. They will then beat it. Every company always does. When they make the first offer just say something like 'I think I'm still going to leave', they might even make a better offer. Make out you have signal problems or customer service problems and they might undercut the price further.

You don't need to spend over 30 quid these days to get what you need. £20-25 max, possibly less.

Tax Payer can look all he likes but he's a car punching fool and he'll struggle to find a better deal.

Add to that the fact orange always have reception everywhere, english call centres.

You also get magic numbers, not the band, so ring orange tell them any other friends on orange and you can call em free.

So makes sense to get your lass on orange too. Free call for life, bobs your uncle, no blow job for compo

I'm with Orange and as I said earlier pay £20 for the deal Compo wants. All you have to do is ring up and haggle.

I had a problem with my handset once, I rang them up and the guy fixed it. At the end of the call he then said he'd apply a 10% discount to my monthly bill because I'm a loyal customer. So I might be getting it for £18 a month but I've never checked to be honest. Was a bit strange..

Yubep , this is a better deal by several million miles.

http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/478584/its-back-02-12-month-sim-contract-8/

But I'm not keen on taking my prize.

Give it to Tommy Butler instead.

vodafone cap there unlimited texts, so technically it's not unlimited, make it about as much use a wank stain on your coller after a night out.

Why would you text people all week telling them to get up on Sunday morning? Wouldn't it be better to actually ring them on the Sunday? sctatchinghead

I just got a 3G iPhone for 35 Margarets a month. O2. 600 texts and 500 minutes (or 500 texts and 600 minutes) per month and unlimited internet acceess. If you get it on a 2 year contract it costs the sum total of sod all. I paid 90 Queenheads for mine though and got it over 18 months (works out cheaper)

It pisses on any phone i've ever had. The internet and applications, as well as being able to use it as an ipod makes it more than worthwhile

There you go point proved.

Unlimited texts with vodafone is a load of bollocks, how can it be unlimited if they limit it?
