I phoned O2 this morning to give notice in readiness for moving to T-Mobile where I was going for a Web'n'walk tariff which allowed 1GB of data a month as O2's rates seemed much pricier than T-Mobile.
But O2 disproved the "brand new customers only" rule by offering me a far better deal than I'm on at the moment - £10pm for 100 minutes, 100 texts, 2MB of data and itemised billing on a 12 month deal with a fair range of free phones. A similar 18 month deal on T-Mobile but with a gig of data would cost £24pm.
Obviously 2MB is a lot less than 1GB, but how much do I need for a few e-mails and, say, 30-60 minutes of web per day if I don't get involved in things like podcasts and downloads?
O2 reckoned that 1MB should be fine so 2MB would be plenty. If I blow the limit each meg is going to cost £2.35 which is obviously a big jump.
