Now I have finally managed to get a job for at least the next 18 months, I have decided to get myself a new phone. As I already have an iPad and loads of iOS apps, I'm thinking along the lines of an iPhone (hopefully the new one due soon) but am getting really confused over the types of contracts available.
I'm currently on Orange Pay as you go and as I've never had any trouble with them, I'd like to stick with them, especially as I'll be able to keep the same number too.
I don't make a lot of phone calls or texts but would use the 3G Internet quite a lot through the phone and tethering to my iPad, so am looking for a contract that focuses more on data than voice or text.
I'm not sure whether to buy a phone outright and get a cheaper 12 month contract or go for a 24 month contract with discounted phone.
The biggest confusion though is whether 'tethering' is actually included or not, I can't seem to find anywhere on Orange's website that says 'tethering included' and how much data usage is allowed through it for each plan.
The one I was looking at was the 'iPhone 31 SIM' with 1200 minutes, unlimited texts and 1GB of data but it doesn't say whether tethering is included or not.
Can anyone advise?
