Default iPhone deals

Missus wants one....
Whats the best deals out there atm? Is it better to go on contract or buy outright sim free and get a sim only contract instead? We live in an area that has s*it service for O2 (I have O2 and have no signal for the most part) so any service provider but them would be good

Please don't turn this into an Android v iPhone thread as she'd like an iPhone, nothing else!

Try Three, they have/had some deals going and claim to be the cheapest/best for iPhone. My experiences so far have been better than Orange and 02 and you can always use them as bargaining with 02 if cheaper.

So on that basis I've had to look for an Iphone 4 for her. 3 do a £25 deal. Its not great but its the cheapest I can find to get into the Iphone.

I tell her my HTC Desire HD costs me £15 and does everything the Iphone does.

Do you know what she says?

If your looking at the 4s then it's probably cheaper to buy the handset outright from apple, £400 for the 16gb version then probably £10 per month ish on a sim only deal from your network of choice. If you go for the iPhone 4 (not s) then probably get a decent deal on contract now.

Yes, Edd, but she's pure filth as you, I and some other privileged members on here know, so please... just do as she says man!


Wait, that didn't sound right, the 'few privileged types'...

Ah, you know what I mean - BEWBIES, NOW

There are soo many good sim only contract deals I would buy the phone sim free and add your own sim. I always laugh at my missus's and my daughters phone as I pay for them and they have unlimited web, txt and 600 minutes and I pay £7.70 for each but when I try and get that deal when I need it its no where to be seen

I would buy a cheap sim card and see wha works out best for you to use and go that way?
