My mobile seems to be eating money atm, never used too
I'm with O2 Pay as You Go have been for about 5 years. Thinking of getting a contract next, but a bit worried I'll end up with a hefty bill. I'm putting in a tenner or more a week just now, I get free txt, but calls are costing me a fortune 
What you all on and how much do you spend?
Any advice on what I should go for?

Is everyone not screaming "GEEK DAY" because it's Jade?
Loads of mint deals available for £40 or less than you're currently paying.

Personally i'd stick to PAYG. I made the move to contract 3/4 months ago because I wanted an N95. Big mistake tbh and regretted it since.

No idea why they've gone up. Can only suggest ringing you provider.
Just remember, you're committing to 12/18 months once you say 'yes'. Don't, seriously.

I'm a bit pissed off with 02. When i was on P&G they used to charge me for texts when i was meant to be getting 300 free texts. Then went with THREE on contract and everything was ace. Got a better deal with 02 on contract and they are doing the same. They charge for calls i don't make and even changed my free minutes the other week without letting me know. They can suck my balls once the contract is ended, i will never use these fuckers ever again.
