The thing with PAYG is, if it doesn't work out i.e. you're spending £20/month+, then just move to a simplicity tariff. Then if you have to cancel to cut your outgoings, you can. | |

Nokia 6300 for about £70 PAYG is your best bet. Then either stay as PAYG, or go SIM Only. | |

Orange do a contract for 24 a month with 400 mins and unlimited txts and you get a handset. Mate just got this is a free Samsung Tocco | |

Worst thing is, I dont even get paid oncall (yet still expected to answer it all the time) - If there wasnt the constant threat of redundancy at the moment I'd just drop my phone off on the bosses desk and tell him to stick it, but for self preservation i'll be carrying two phones around with me from now on :( | |

can you not just offer to pay your work the money back for any texts, that'd be a lot cheaper surely? | |

The only problem is with a sim only contract, is that I'd have to get hold of a handset. | |

quote: I'm on one of these - it's awesome. If you want to cancel, you can, as they run on a monthly basis. Also consider PAYG. O2 do deals whereby the more you top-up, the more free txts you get. Consider how much you'd spend in credit over a monthly tariff, it may be cheaper, particularly if using only at the weekend :) [Edited on 08-12-2008 by deano87] | |

I've kinda been bollocked for using my work mobile phone excessively for text messages so I'm going to have to get on a personal contract again :o |
