I have a iPhone 6+ 16GB with EE £41.99 a month (unlimited minutes, texts and 2GB)

Seems a little on the high side if you ask me...

Granted you get unlimited data and tethering allowance but yeah...

(Not Three but you can get a rough idea as to what you could get (If you wanted that phone)

£50/month?

I think £40/month may have been a fair deal, but £50 is silly especially if you are not going to use over 10gb of data a month and even so would it not be better get a Three SIM at £17/month (for 12 months or has it gone up now) and then buy the phone outright (even if you got a loan for it)?

I'm with Mark on this one 24 month contracts have got kind of crazy last couple of years.

For example EE are offering 10GB of Data Unlimited Everything else for £49.99 a month. On the iPhone 6 64GB it is £119.99 upfront so basically Three are just waving the upfront cost common tactic these days.

Honestly for the price they offered just wait an extra month and get the next iPhone you will pay barely anything different.

iPhone 6 64GB in gold = £619 (and it's about to be replaced with a new model)

£50 x 24 months = £1200

I'm fairly sure you can get a good SIM only plan for less than £25/month.

So no, it's not worth it.

I was offered (and took) an offer of £48 a month for 64G iPhone 6 Plus from Three. Unlimited everything. I think you can do quite a bit better but id wait 30 days for the new phones. They shouldn't be £20 a month more than the current models.

The only time unlimited may be useful is TV watching in say hotel rooms over 3G/4G connection. Personally a 4.7" screen is good, but not good enough to watch lots of TV, and most hotels include WiFi anyway.

I have 10GB (SIM only contract) with EE on an iPhone 6 and the most I've used in a month is 5GB without tethering. I do listen to internet radio (via bluetooth to stereo in the car) and a lot of facebook pictures - but my normal monthly usage is closer to 3.5gb.

Three sell Unlimited to ensure people don't worry, but that lack of worry costs a lot

Beat way to go these says is stay on sim only and buy a phone outright. Prices are getting ridiculous even for old models still being so expensive.

24 month contracts did used to make some sense going on as you didn't overpay a ton for a device doesn't seem that way anymore.

I'm personally paying £39 a month for my iPhone 6 Gold 16GB from Vodafone with unlimited minutes, texts and 6GB of 4G internet access. they where charging me £50 originally when i rung up but i basically talked them down due to fact I have been a customer of them for well over 10 years. not having unlimited data doesn't bother me when i can access Sky Cloud Wi-FI and BT Openzone on the go any how.
