While everyone is asking about phones here's mine!
I fancy a blackberry but don't want to pay £25 a month.
Most contracts to get the phone free are 24 months so I was thinking about getting a sim card off O2, they were offering one for £5 a month with 300
minutes, unlimited texts and 500mb internet.
So, I'm thinking of buying the phone then paying £5 a month, this seems cheaper to me but is there any catch?
The £5 a month calling plan may not include data, which you will need to fully exploit the BB. You should be able to get data added for around £5.00 per month which should still see you saving money over 12/18 months compared to getting it free on a higher rate per month contract

Ahem...it's normally £5/month for the data tariff, then another £5/month for the hosted blackberry service.
You need both to make full use of a blackberry....I'm 90% certain the email functionality is missing until the blackberry service is enabled....

With O2 you a real bargain is if you take O2 broadband landline as well.
I think carphone warehouse do a £15 a month deal on the blackberry depends which one you want I have the curve and quite impressed no flash though
DONT go with 02,
they might just stiff you the way they have just stiffed me
After 8 loyal years it seems the customer is always wrong.
This is of course just my very bitter opinion.
