I may as well get a Virgin mobile too?

Having already a landline phone (m), Tivo (m+) and Broadband (L)...I thought there might be a good offer out there for me!

1st of all, I have a phone I'm happy with. A Nokia 3710 fold....not top of the range. But good enough for what I want to use it for. But if there is an offer with a good solid phone, I would consider it.

I basically want between 100-200 mins a month to any network. 100-300 text to any network. Not fussed about internet.

I want to pay around 7-13 pound a month. Pay as you go, or contract...I don't mind.

Is there any such deals like this? (with or without phone). I tried searching the websites but I got too confused.

Any advice, recommendations are very welcome! Even if it's for another network lol. But I think virgin would offer the best deal because I already have 3 services with them.

If you have a phone you are happy with you should consider a SIM only deal, usually get more mins/texts as no handset to fund.

You could take a look at SIM only deals from Tesco Mobile which is who I use. They use the O2 network.
for example £10 per month gives you 250 minutes, 5000 texts on just a 1 month contract

For SIM only you should also look at giffgaff. £10/month for 250 mins and unlimited texts and data.

Aye! I wish I had waited a bit longer before signing up to an 18 Month mobile phone contract.

As a few weeks of doing that, we came back to V/M for all 3services again, and after reading the Mobile Phone deal available, I feel a but silly now

Re: I may as well get a Virgin mobile too?

I've just dropped Vodafone and moved to Virgin mobile. I got myself a HTC One V (not a bad little phone) for free with a contract because i've also got Virgin TV and internet. My signal strength is now better where i live and i can actually get on the net with my phone in places where i couldn't before.
