With all these wonderfull deals available on various Mobile Networks, I've recently been giving Vodafone a real hard time lately to put me on something decent or I’m off!, been with them nearly 20 years!
Here's their lasted monthly tariff offer, to keep me :-
500 cross network mins.
Unlimited Landline Calls, 01, 02 numbers.
Unlimited Mobile Internet (fair use policy).
Unlimited Text’s (don’t do them much, might start).
Free Voice mail and Server Download.
Free Fax mail Server (Converts the Fax to Tiff doc, then emails you).
Free email (pop 3 with 10 addresses)
Free Itemised Billing.
Free International Call Saver and Vodafone Passport.
Free monthly Insurance.
All on a 12 month contract, Non Direct Debit, for £17.00 pm,
And because I didn’t renew my Hand Set they added £100 credit to my account, if you work that over 12 months brings my tariff down to £8.66 pm.
Just goes to show what can be done with some persistence, and not re newing your Hand Set every year!

Its a good deal which, belive it or not, will suit them more than you.
1. Resonable percentage of people not renewing device with new contract will need to call back at some point with a fauly device. Cue opportunity to upsell....
2. N Unit price of device - and the subsequent - saving for the company by not giving you one will be nearer to a £200 to them.
Everyones happy then i guess :y

we are seeing more returns on Nokia than any other handset - 4 fold compared to SE.
Not that the Nokia`s have any massive underlying problem. Just as you say SE becoming very reliable.
Sorry TB ;D

I suspect nobody can beat the 2 O2 contracts I have. 1 of them works out costing less than a tenner a year, other, they pay me :-X

Thats the trouble when companies chase kpis at the expense of anything.... ....I guess o2 have a kpi for total subscribers, and who cares if they lose money?

I have never had a contract for a mobile, allways used PAYG. Maybe getting to the point where they are worth considering now.

ill try to avoid my usual vodafone rant, about money
Grabbing, appaling customer support, and general
big headedness, in my experience.
All was well about the tariff until you get to the bit
about keeping your old hand set, and all became clear
,they will be happy with that deal. And if you are as well
then fine.
For me though, its a chance to get the latest hand
Set with all the mobile communication that gives you.
And if you replace your old handset for a refurbished
one just before you upgrade, you can sell it on as new
when you get your upgrade and recoupe a good
portion of the cost your contract. (Esp. If its got tom
tom on it, people love that)
