Well be warned you do NOT get 2gb with o2 you get 200mb limit and a warning text after you go over 250mb. I got told by an o2 manager.

O2 are the best network though

EXTRA: more bad news for you. The unlimited browsing is for use with your phone only and not used as a modem. So dont go over the top using your phone to power your computer internet! Because your not covered and could recieve a large charge

Ok, to clear this up, that is complete bollocks, just because one person has mis-informed you doesn't nessecarily make it fact.

I'm going to make this clear, just once more, O2's Unlimited Internet bolt-on is 'unlimited' with an excessive usage policy. This is different from a 'fair usage policy' in that if O2 deem your usage exessive they will bar you from using it.

For example, using your phone as a modem for your computer is excessive, using your phone to download movies and music all day is excessive.

They have a 'rough' limit of 3GB a month, NOT 250MB, can I make this any more clear? And even then, if you go over 3GB they'll simply ring you and ask you nicely to 'slow down a bit'. If you persist over and over, then you'll have it taken from you.

How did you get unlimited web on a £30 p/m tariff, they so far have only been telling me that to get web I need to initially be on a £35 p/m+ tarrif in which they'll boost my texts and give me £15 p/m off?

As you use multiple phones this method might not work for you, but I always used to go onto the settings, then data in the 4th tab and it'd say.
