Gloating: is this a good deal, or is this a good deal?!
I've been with O2 for 2 years on the Online 200 tariff:
£30 a month, inc 200 anytime minutes, 500 texts, 500 WAP minutes, and 1mb of GPRS data. As I was out of contract last week, I rang today to see what they could offer......this is what they've done: Credited £60 to my account, Added 200 extra texts for 3 months, Cut the monthly fee by 50% to just £15. This means that in essence, for the next 12 months, my total bill will be £10! |

I'm on O2 I get 1000 anytime minutes and 150 texts for £35 a month
or I could have had 750 mins and 750 texts for the same price. so you still arent getting the best deal in the world, considering you are a longstanding existing customer. Its not bad by any means though. |

I think one of my friends gets about 600 mins a month and loads of texts for a tenner but shes only ever had a mobile with o2 so she must have been with them 6 years or so now.

Its not bad by any means though. I assume you must be on some version of o2 500 double bundle as o2 max cannot be made that cheap. As such this is only a promo deal so will end after 3 or 6 months dependant on where you got your phone from. Did they give you a bolt on 50 free? As that is the only way you could be paying £35 with 150 sms. Good tariff the o2 500. No longer available to new customers so keep on it

There are so many variations of the same tariff its unreal. |

Yep January I saw it advertised just before my contract on my old mobile finished with three so it was cheaper to have them overlapping for a month rather than miss out on it.
A couple of my friends managed to get really cheap ones too. One of my friends has a contract that I think is O2 I've never seen it on the o2 website though so maybe its orange its through someone like carphone warehouse and shes had 4 months with 2000 minutes a month and now shes going down to 1000 not sure whether thats peak or off peak though and thats something like £20 a month because the provider is giving her a cashback offer, I think she gets 500 texts as well which is just a ridiculously good deal. |
