I am currently on o2's 300 free texts per month but that's not good enough as I send about 300 per week, is there any better deal where you get more in a month?

So that's like 400 texts - £10? I have one of those virgin sims around the house but not sure if it's that good, I know they rent T-Mobiles lines lol.

I know you said pay as you go but can you not do contract? Orange do a tarriff with no free calls, but 3000 texts for £20 a month. Works out at less than 1p a message. Its the best deal your going to get.

You know with them Virign mobile sims that give you 400 free texts for a tenner a month, do they take the tenner off your balance or do you get to keep that?

Sounds fine but can I get one with some free off peak calls and a few thousand texts?

Slightly misleading. You only get 1000 free texts and £100 credit. Because it's two sims with offer on each. And to get the 'free credit' you need to spend £100 on each sim anyway!

But you still get the 2000 free texts if you use both.
