Bonovox so your saying the new 15 tarrif will give u 12000txts ( if u changd b4 31 oct) and UNLIMITD web. And people on the old 10quid tarrif u have to pay 7.50 for the web bolt on and get 500mb. Theyd be an outcry. I think u or your friend is wrong i rung up 5 times and each 1 said there was a 500mb limit

It must be right because so many people say on here and i believe what James says. Also not just my friend who works in the store i did ask in another store just being curious. They said the same thing its UNLIMITED but with excessive usage if you over do it. I sometimes wonder if store staff and customer service staff always say something different. But i am fed up with this discussion its becoming stale now.

Right, let me put this a simple way.
I've been doing this for 7 1/2 years now, and outside of you lot, not a SINGLE O2 customer has EVER, EVER, told us they've been texted/contacted by O2 in regards to reaching any kind of limit.
So on the website or not, some manager in another store or not, I have never, EVER had a single customer mention this to us.
Myself, my collegauges, and all the staff in at least 5 stores are all in agreement that it is unlimited. That's what we've been told, that's the info we've found out for ourselves, thats the response we've had from our customers.
That's my input, there's clearly little else I can add to this discussion to stop you all worrying your heads off.

hmmm
i have tried to stay out of this thread as you only need to see my previous threads about this, which this argument has been brought up time and time again. I am pretty tired of explaining the same.
However as Daedalus85 has said. Unlimited is Unlimited subject to excessive usage limit, does not matter where it says everywhere else. When it comes to prepay yes that might be the case a 500MB limit. However if it is even mentioned anywhere that a limit exists, that is just probably mentioned to stop people over abusing the usage that O2 gives. But as I said it is subject to excessive usage and O2 will never cut anyone off without having a word with them first of all. So feel free to use the internet as much as you want, until you get a call from O2 regarding hitting any excessive usage policy.
I think now this thread should be locked now. As I am getting sick of tired of having to repeat the same as Daedalus85 and what anyone else with our view is saying.
Also to add as a final note, if you really think a limit is set at 250MB or 500MB then simply pick a network that you do feel gives you unlimited access without any limit. I will be interested to know if anyone comes across a network in the UK that will do this. But once again as I have mentioned its unlimited subject to excessive usage.
p.s some links for you to look at:
http://shop.o2.co.uk/sim-only-simplicity
look at the bottom where it says on that link:
Unlimited
UK data usage only. Excessive usage policy and terms apply. View details
THEN CLICK ON VIEW DETAILS:

DOES ANYONE SEE ANY MENTON OF A 500MB USAGE LIMIT???? I DONT THINK SO. SO DESPITE WHAT YOU MIGHT HEAR FROM ANYONE IN CUST SERVICE OR A MANAGER, PLEASE ASK THEM NEXT TIME, TO REFER TO THE ABOVE LINK, AND CONTINUE USING UR INTERNET
I REST ME CASE LOL
@ Nanu maybe O2 needs to update any automatic sms they are sending to you then. As I have never got a sms like that. If I did. I would refer O2 to the terms and conditions which is available to all members of the public. As I have posted above.

@nicv27 as you know Android is continuously syncing during the day plus I tend to use twitter from time to time, a few Google searches and Spotify, I never had anything like this until I took out a new 12 month contract with O2 in September, if this continues I will end up wishing I hadn't renewed!
