Congratulations, your 12 months of free internet has been set up on your phone and is ready to use straight away. Happy surfing!

Silver m8, this is what the T mobile site says:-

iPhone 4 pay as you go micro-SIM

Get 100 minutes free & 12 months free internet worth £40*

Top up £10 each month and get 100 free anytime minutes to
UK mobiles and landlines to use the next month.

* 500MB per month
Please note that the 12 months free internet is for the iPhone 4 only and is not available for the iPad or any other device.

The £10 each month is purely to get 100 free minutes every month, not the 3G internet.

yes thats what i read too

the reason why i say is because the full terms are where the catch is

for e.g.

there is o2 sim payg

and it says that you must top up £10 each month to get your deal and that £10 then is still there for using as calls it wont be deducted to get the deal but must be topped up

i remeber when t mobile did a deal for free weekend calls you had to top up £15 per month to get the deal activated but the £15 was still available to use for callls and texts

Well, I wouldn't bother phoning em up, as they entered in to a contract giving you 12 months internet, as they sent you a text telling you you have 12 months internet enabled... If they don't keep it up, then sue em

£5 + £10 top up and get twelve months free internet. 500mb a month, only need it for browsing.

Can i enquire as to how this panned out..
Now you've had it longer than a month,have you had to top up again or not... please.

**pooface** · 26-09-11, 19:48

Mine arrived yesterday... still won't work in dongle..
Balance on it is £0 ,not made any calls or anything...
Still trying to get my £10 top up from t-mobile,but my card isn't on their system......

**Sicilian** · 29-09-11, 10:16

I got mine from a T Mobile high street store.

**ukbob** · 29-09-11, 11:08

Sorted, it was on wrong plan.
When recieved it was on p&yg everyday with £0 balance.
Should have been on p&yg talk plan with £10 balance.
Thanks everyone... especially Sicilian.
Will come in handy for light browsing when subbed gear goes down.

Yes m8, give them a call.

**pooface** · 04-10-11, 16:04

Well, finally got around to calling them up, and got told that they've removed the 6 months free, and added the 12 months free. Only query I got now, is that I haven't received a text confirming I have the 12 months...

Hopefully will be set up tho

Oooops, too late, text just came through

Now, that's one pretty sweet deal... 12 months free internet for £5

**silverfox0786** · 17-10-11, 18:32
