    Vodafone rip off

    18 month contract (coming to end)
    60 minutes calls
    200 texts
    500 meg

    25 quid a month. My assistant has, like, 4 billion minutes a month for less than that.

    I recall my first Orange contract 15 years ago before they started moronically naming their plans after wildlife. They still do that, right? Or have the developed "The Snooki Plan" and "The Situation Plan (Free calls to other people's GFs!)" to hit their target demographic yet?

    Grrrrr.... O2, here I come.

    GiffGaff?

    I did a fair amount of sums when I was leaving Voda for mostly the same reasons (and hardly any signal, anywhere), and GiffGaff came out top most of the time, even on PAYG. Couldn't believe how bad a lot of contacts are these days.

    If you need a phone though you need to weigh up a subsidised contract vs buying outright

    Surely you could change your tariff to a more competative one??

    Re: Vodafone rip off

    They piggyback on O2, so the signal has always been pretty good in my experience. If you decide to go with them, let me fire you an invite and I think we both get an extra fiver credit, or something
