Question Mobile phones - Is this a good deal??

I know sod all about mobile phones but the kids use them of course. My son has a £10/month contract with Virgin but keeps running up big monthly bills. That's his problem until he has £25 in the bank and a £100 bill to pay - guess who has to cough up (yeah I know, soft touch).

So I phoned up Virgin and moaned. Not that it's their fault but it made me feel better

But they did tell me that he could have a £15/month deal with 400 mins to any phone plus an extra 200 mins to a Virgin mobile. Plus unlimited texts.

This seems pretty good to me but I really haven't a clue. So what do you reckon?

If you're doing SIM only check out Quidco and go with either Voda or O2. some great deals with the cashback. If you're new to quidco it's painless.

Quidco - Vodafone cashback

Quidco - O2 cashback
