Hello

The T-Mobile Flext tarrffs are pretty good. I'm just thinking of swapping to one for my wife (£35/month, about 700 minutes).

What I'd like to know is what operator carries over unused minutes/texts each month. Feb up of hearing from Tmobile that they can't do it now but will at some future point.

T-mobile flex.

£21.25 a month, this equates to either 1000 txts & 150 xnetwork minutes, or 1500 txts & no minutes. I dont use it too make calls as i have another one for that. Previously my bill was close to £80 a month.

Its easy when you know how

Last September I got a free SE K750, 50 Xnet anytime minutes a month (never go over that) and 500 texts for 9 pounds a month. 12 month contract with O2.

Suits me fine as I dont use it much for calls
