My contract is coming to an end; £25 per month on O2, 200 minutes, 200 texts with 50% cashback from Carphone Warehouse.
200 minutes/month are ample. I will stay with O2 which has fairly good reception in this area. So, what's the best buy, are sim only deals the way to go?
Look forward to your advice

can never understand why people get contract phones i put £10 of credit on my pay and go 02 and get free 500 mins of free calls a month 1000mins if i top up £15 +100 free texts
the only thing with contract phones is you get up graded every so often

Get on to their customer retention dept. by saying you are thinking of getting a contract elsewhere.
They will improve what ever deal you are on.

Bigjohn, that sounds a good deal; any more detail
Voda and voda has not got very good reception in this area.
Thanks for posts, look forward to some more ideas

i got the 02 pay and go top up sim card rang the help line and asked for the favourite places bolt on gives you free calls from your home address to all land lines and other 02 mobiles the sim came with 50 free texts when you top up and that stays on for life
i know i wont suite everyone but since i went on it iv saved a small fortune

o2 pay as you go is a good deal,
would not go on contract again

Rang CPW after they had sent me a long text

and I can get an 18 month contract but cashback has to be claimed which leaves a net price of £9.72 per month including vat for 200 mins and 200 texts with O2. Phone not included.
Au, I'm tempted to go payg!
