From: Martin S Taylor on 17 Jun 2010 09:01 As expected, it's designed to be complicated, but all the information is here: <http://shop.o2.co.uk/new-iphone/tariffs.html> The best deal seems to be the 30-day simplicity. �50 a month gets you a free iPhone 4, and you're locked in to the contract for a full 30 days. Is this really right? What am I missing? Martin S Taylor

What am I missing? Oh, I see. "You can choose to pay the full Pay & Go price for an iPhone 4 and choose a Pay Monthly simplicity for iPhone tariff." But what is the full PAYG price? They're not saying. In fact: "iPhone 4 will be coming soon to Pay & Go but it won't be available at launch. When we have more information on pricing we will let you know." So can you get an iPhone on the Pay Monthly iPhone simplicity contract at launch? Any guesses? MST

I've found several times that there's no point second-guessing mobile phone providers. Ring'em up and ask, but be prepared for them to want to take your order immediately!

They appear to be misusing the word "simplicity". -- Chris |
