Advantages: 750 Free Minutes To Landlines and Mobiles Disadvantages: Only T-Mobile and Reception
...calls to UK landlines and T-mobile phones a month, plus a free phone for £13-99 per month over a 12 month contract. What could possibly be wrong with something like that?
Well for starters I cannot get reception in any pub in Fallowfield, Rusholme is ok and the centre of Manchester is ok. This has resulted in a few bollockings from the girlfriend as I quite often pop off for a pint in Fallowfield on the way home from work, which leads to the inevitable ... ...minutes to UK landlines and T-Mobile phones sounds great but most of my friends and family are not on T-Mobile, and the mobile phone has in quite a few cases become the primary means of contact. Outside your free time calls are 5p per minute off-peak to UK landlines and t mobile phones and 30 p/minute on peak. Phone calls to other networks are 30p per minute off peak and 50p/min at all other times. So in-fact this is quite expensive in my book.

BACKGROUND
********************
I have had this contract for 2 years, but changed recently (i'll come to that).
I am French, and live in London. I was using this contract because of the high number of minutes and also the price. I used it mainly to call mummy and daddy (with an international phone card), to tell them about my adventures...
WHAT IS IT?
****************
A mobile phone contract. It includes:
- 750 minutes (about 12.5 hours) off ... ...free answer phone
- 50 free texts a month (you can get special deals with 100 txts)
- a free phone
- itemised billing: +£1 per month (you have no choice, you have to get it) detailed bill with all the numbers you called or txted.
HOW MUCH, BECAUSE YOU SAID BARGAIN EARLIER...
**********************************************************
£13.99 a month + the forced itemised billing. You get some phones for free, otherwise you have to pay a bit more ...

Advantages: Free talk time in the evenings for 12 hours Disadvantages: cant change your deal until the end of the contract
I ordered my phone off of the internet on the TMobile website (http://www.tmobile.co.uk) as they had a special offer on my phone, the Nokia 3100 and this particular price plan for just £13.99 per month as well as 100 free text messages (normally 50 free text messags per month). I recieved my phone the very next day and it was very easy to assemble- unlike my other Tmobile pay as you go phone- I didn't get any free credit when I registered and so ... ...to make a call. which I must admit did put me out slightly.
How have I found it so far?
Quite good. I was inspired to go to a mix it kind of network as it should enable you to cut down on your spending. I was inspired by a bank statement which told me i had spent £270 on just topping up my phone and my boyfriend said that this would be a cheaper options. So I joined up. Apart from the £13.99 per month you can also top up your phone- which ever ...

Advantages: Good if you only use it off peak. Disadvantages: CALLING CUSTOMER SERVICE IS A RIP-OFF.
T-Mobile charge calls to their customer service number at 50p per minute. Fair enough you might think - I won't have to call very often. The problem is, when you do, T-Mobile "conveniently" have a busy period so you're actually paying a small fortune for them to keep you waiting.
I lost my mobile phone last week so I was forced to call this bloodsucking operation to report it lost and get it blocked. Over three calls, I was on the phone for a total ... ...T-Mobile for about 3 minutes max. The call charges? Total - £9.05.
So if you don't mind T-Mobile ripping you off by keeping you waiting for ages on the phone then hey - knock yourself out - go for it. If like me you object to this seedy, underhand practice then look elsewhere.
I have 2 contracts with these shysters. One finishes in June so I won't be renewing it. The other has unfortunately just started so I'll be using it for my free call time ...

Advantages: You're sure about when you can make your free calls Disadvantages: Free text messages are too little at 50 per month
At 750mins per month in the evnings, I find this offer worth it considering, on the average, it covers how much talk I need per month, especially off-peak. For the average worker, and even students, you're not really relaxed enough or keen to make so many calls during the day anyway. Coming with so many top-of-the-range mobile handsets, like the Motorola V3, Nokia 6101, I think the packaging of this offer is worth the trial. The strategy seems to ... ...be loyal to the same operator as you. Can't deny the fact that I hesitate to call customer service though at the 50p per min rate. I think its ridiculous. It should be a lower once-off fee so we don't have to wait out T-mobile's customer service "busy periods". Haven't had much reception problems either since I got mine. I'd say a little adjustment to their service/rate and it just might be the network that works. ...
