Currently my daughter is on an old o2 £10 monthly simplicity deal which includes no data allowance. She is going to be looking at getting a new phone for christmas, so will obviously be looking at something with a data allowance. Now I have seen the giff gaff sim goody bags, and the £10 goody bag looks great for the money. Does anyone use giff gaff? are there any catches with them? Also if she chooses a blackberry, can she enable BBM and internet with giff gaff?

I have been using giffgaff for over a year now and i can completely 100% recommend it. I currently use the £10 good bag and its suits my usage needs. Only issue i have with them is that you can only top-up online but they have an option to auto top-up once that option is selected so you never need worry about running out of credit.

Hi Paul, I use them and I can say they are defiantly the best value PAYG operator at the moment. The goody bags are also very good value but they obviously only last a month. If you opt not to have them, calls are 8p per minute and texts are 4p and giffgaff to giffgaff calls are free (including video calls). So yeah if you're willing to buy a phone separately its the best option, currently blackberry is not supported but I know that they are working on making it compatible with it in the next few months.

A Blackberry and data tethering goodybag is on the way soon starting from £5 a month.
Been with giffgaff for over a year myself now. They do have their problems occasionaly but are quite good otherwise and really cant be beaten for value.

Is the monthly thing easy to setup, as I dont want her to run out of credit due to not having topped up.

yes very easy, once you've registered onto the site all you need to do is enter your card details and select (tick) the Auto top up option and its done.

Many thanks. Will keep an eye on these for when she gets the new phone. Might ring o2 to see if they can match it or we are off.
