are you talking about the £20 mobile broadband or the £7.50 bolt-on?

edit: or the £30 web max?

Ok, here's how you are lucky:

New Zealand iPhone data plans:



How does it equate? Well $80 is roughly £30, $130 is roughly £50, and $250 is roughly £95 per month. Look at what they give you for that kind of money (you get an iPhone with it, but still its stupidly high in price).

I think the limits are stupid, 02 claim there £7.50 bolt-on is unlimted internet browsing when its the furthest away from unlimted at only 200mb a month, before i was with t-mobile bit more expensive at £2.50 for 5days but 40mb a day was fair i never needed anymore, 02's internet works out at 6.5mb per day which is very low and i pay £7.50 a month for this i could get unlimted broadband for a couple quid more 02 need to re think there unfair fair usage polociey or reduce the price.

Exactly. Its ridiculous. I guess they're so rich or something that they think these prices are cheap. Anyway, we're a little off topic.

Continue.

agreed, and if you read the details, while the £7.50 bolt on is "unlimited" with fair use of 200mb/month, the £30 bolt on is "unlimited" with fair use of 3gb/month

surely unlimited is unlimited. how is it unlimited when even 2 of their plans have different fair use amounts. they are using the same term for two completely different meanings.

This surely fails the trade descriptions act?

but yes, its a rip off anyway. t-mob will give you 3gb fair use + 9000+ wifi hotspots in UK + 300 mins global roaming hotposts for £12/month

They use the term "fair usage" instead of "limited" so then they can say it's "unlimted" , i'm pretty sure it's only 02 that do this but i think 02 have the worst prices and limits thats why we complain, vodafone seem to be the only one's offering actual unlimted internet

i couldn't find anything about fair usage anywhere and it's quiet cheap,
complaining to 02 probley wouldn't do anything i've brought and am using the 7.50 web bolt i'm using it as normal like i did with t-mobile not sure how far 200mb a month is gonna go on a phone with hsdpa and i like to download stuff aswell.
