Ok so that's all from a print out I got from the o2 store.

Just a few questions about it, if I want to connect my SE K800i to my laptop to go online with the built in modem to send a few emails, is it going to cost me the WAP price of 12c per min, or is it going to cost me the GPRS Data price of 1c per KB?

Is it just going to cost me 18c per minute to make calls while I'm in the UK? Will I be charged for receiving calls?

It doesn't mention voicemail, will this be free?


Using Sam Vimes program, Cabbage, I can send 6-8 texts for 1c through my webtext account, I'm currently on the 20c flat rate PAYG plan with o2, how much will the same cost on this plan does anyone know?

Any feedback appreciated

I'd suggest you put a data odd on to your account. They're cheap enough, 250mb for 7.50 should cover you for a rake of wap browsing and the occasional email check.

nothing special in my opinion, i'm getting 750 mins and 100 texts for 65 ex vat. Now thats seems to me as a good deal.

cormie

So that works out at about 10c per call inc vat, who's that with?

This plan would be great for anyone spending a lot of time on the phone. Not sure if it's right for me, I don't use that many minutes, but for some people it could be great. You could even scrap the house phone and just use your mobile the whole time

Its with o2.

You should consider 3's Business tarrifs if you are switching.
I am currently with Voda but will most likely to be switching to 3 soon
€80 p/m for 600 units
1 unit = 1 min call or 3 txts or 3mb Data
3 to 3 are free (use no units) and roaming is the cheapest of all the networks.

Of course you have the customer service - which i've heard horror stories about but I was surprised to see how much cheaper they could be.
