Hi There,
I am looking to buy the knew iPhone 5, and I was wondering which iPhone 5 (The amount of storage 16GB, 32GB or 64GB) Which carrier, which plan and how to pay for the handset. I use my phone a fair bit but not excessively at all. I do't really call to much either but i do like to text and email and use a fair bit of internet and applications. I you can guide me as to which iPhone 5 to buy that would be great. I am currently on Vodafone on Pay as you Go and really want to change to bill pay but if you think pay as you go will be better than I'll stick with that!

Thanks a Million!

Dont be lazy, do a bit of research yourself. All the info is on all the carriers. DO the maths and see what the cheapest option is for you.

You should also be able to decide what capacity you need. Nobody can magically predict what you use your phone for.

Without sounding too smart to the OP, how the hell are we meant to know what you need. If i i had deep pockets i would buy the 64gb version without fail, just to have that added space, would i use it, i dont know.

Meteor works for me at the moment as i buy direct from Apple and have a friends and family discounted plan with them but that may not work for you.

Do you want bill or PAYG.
how much do you want to spend per month?

do you want to spend bug money now on the phone and get a realy cheap monthly tarrif on a sim only plan?
do you want to pay alot less now for the phone but pay a higher monthly charge to the network?

loads of questions, not many answers OP.

I rang up about it the other day with emobile, to get it you or the new account holder need to have an eircom account number and its not available on the highest tariffs and is only available if someone is signing a new contract.

I still get the €10 euro eircom discount even though the account was closed ages ago and wasn't even in my name

I have

400 mins
400 SMS
2gb Data
Free Meteor To Meteor Calls & Texts

€25 Per month.

My dad has the unlimited plan on eMobile, unlimited calls, texts, data for €34.50 per month.

My mate is an engineer for Meteor/eMobile.
On my plan the iPhone 5 was 299 for the 16gb if i opted to get from them. Its also 299 for my dad on eMobile plan if he decides to upgrade.

You can get onto the eMobile plan with an Eircom account number i believe but there are no current Meteor offers/family and friends offers at present

So ya get screwed on the price of the handset, i rang eMobile friday and they said it would cost €99 for the 16gb but i'd have to pay off 6 months of my contract to get the upgrade

yeah pretty much, thats why i upgrade every 2 years and i buy from apple direct. Although i got an S3 from them 2 weeks ago for €140 and sold it on Adverts on €450 two days later

So they screw me on some handsets and look after me on others

yes you would :

If i asked "Wgat Car should i buy"
The next few posts would contain the following questions :

• budget
• engine size
• age
• sex
• mileage
• petrol or diesel
• any preferences
• do i want new or 2nd hand
• do i want a bangernomic
• etc etc

Yes you most certainly would. There are plenty of people out there who have posted on the motors forum asking which car they should buy for €XXXX.

Its the same on the Computers forum. They even had to change the charter to instruct people to give details if asking for advice on what computer to buy.

Oh no you wouldn't.
Oh yes you would.
