New PAYG tariffs

[Anonymous]

I've just received a text message advising me of the new tariffs being introduced on 7th May 2015. Full details are included in the following link:

Although out of bundle charges have gone up, the increased allowances and the introduction of 4G at the £10 price point, make this a better option than some of the current pay monthly deals. Am I missing something? Or can someone tell me if the pay monthly deals are changing as well?

Hi @Anonymous 

Some of our members have been saying recently that PAYG now seems to be a better option  than contract.

(Depending on your personal requirements of course)

I have just been notified that my PAYG tarriff has to be changed, fine, but on looking at new tariffs, how can O2 justify charging me the same monthly amount that I have paid for the last 2 years for less minutes and texts - completely unfair, now considering changing service provider. Very annoyed - I am losing 100 minutes per month and getting no reduction also not unlimited texts A completely fed up with 02 - so much for being a loyal customer

Shop around though some of the allowances have gone up.....

They are giving more mins and text look at the link in the first post on the big bundles tariff

O2 big bundles now look better option than Asda mobile (not better than stadard rate 8p with no bundle) https://mobile.asda.com/pages/bundles which is good the only extra thing you gain on asda mobile is HD VOICE but no 4g as per all ee mvnos

I am now confused after reading some of your replies, at the moment I am on pay as you gogo tarrif, 500 minutes, 1GB, unlimited texts - £20 per month, to change which I have been told to do which will now take effect from 8 may as this is when my anniversary date is! the best I could get is 400 minutes, 4000 texts, 2gb data, which is fine, but I'm used to getting 500 minutes , therefore I am down 100 minutes where does this extra minutes come into ie, 400 becomes 1000 minutes??
