o2 expensive
i think the cost of 02 text messages are expensive at 12p each, my phone eats the credit as soon as i put it on, any ideas how to combat this so to speak.
im currently using about £10 credit on txts in 48 hours.

You can buy text bolt ons which bring the cost down substantially. There is also an online tarrif where if you top up £10 a mth you get 300 texts free a mth. Give customer care a call and they will sort it out for you

I put at lest £10 in my phone every 6 or 7 days. I wait untill I got just under £2 in my mobile then I top up with £10. I got £10 due back so far from the 02 rewards thing.

I agree though, if the new MNVO's can charge around 6p or less for text message, why can't the original operators? I suspect it has everything to do with profits. |

If you're on o2 original which uses Peak/Off Peak price plan, then the texts will be 12p. You can change this to o2 talkalot where calls cost a lot for first 3 mins, then the rate declines. The texts on this cost 10p.
You can also try to get hold of an o2 sim card with 300 free texts per month. They're great !

Anti-Reality-TV, haven't you heard of 02 Online? A good option is 02 online Talkalotmore. For £15, you get
150 Offpeak Xnet Minutes. 300 Free Texts, or up to 100 Anytime Xnet minutes. '1MB' Free GPRS browsing, although it's unlimited to me. Plus every 3 months, you'll get £4.50 (or 10% of all you've topped up if you opt for it. |

Or even better go to www.easymobile.com and sign up to receive 2p texts until the end of June then 5p after that I save loads on texts, yesterday I sent about 100 and it only cost about £2, It's really cheap
