Hi all,
I currently got an O2 call package and p990i, but as outlined on many threads O2 data charges are crazy.. I also see a few threads about t-mobiles web and walk.
What i'd like to do is get a t-mobile payg sim with web and walk, and swap this with my O2 sim when i want to use data rather than calls. I am confused at the various threads on the t-mobile pricing.. is it £7.50 a month or a £1 a day? Also as i intend to mostly use my O2 for calls, can i redirect any calls from my O2 sim to my t-mobile one when i'm using this?
I never had a payg sim, or 2 phones/sims before, and wonder if this is a practical idea?
thanks for your help
cheers Oz

The cheapest way to get web nwalk is buy a sim only deal online for 7.50 Then add web n walk for another 7.50 by phonin up . Thats a sim only rolling month contract. No idea about the divertin calls question

I do exactly you want to do, and its £1 a day for unlimited data, i remember reading somewhere that t-mobile capp it at 25mb but thats not true. Done about 1gig worth of browsing and downloading yesterday

Im not sure about the call diverting question, as i put my 02 sim in my K750i when im using the t-mobile sim in my P990i. On a side note, I asked about 5 months ago when I was in an o2 shop about data plans and prices. The sales assistant said their are plans to introduce something similar to t-mobile, but haven't seen or heard anymore on that yet. Although I do get 250mb inclusive on my o2 contract.

If you buy a PAYG sim its £1 a day, which is what I use. What Greggy meant was a rolling contract sim, which would work out to be £15 a month. Hope this helps.

Ah thanks...
now i understand

cheers Paul..
So i got to decide if i will use more than £15 a month on payg.. which isn't likely to be honest..
So i think my best option is the £1 a day..
Just got to figure out if i can forward calls and have the 2 sims in the same phone

No problem! Forgot to say works well with streaming, and if you got LGC Jukebox, internet radio

Divert calls
With the o2 SIM in the phone
Tools -> Control Panel -> Call settings -> Divert calls -> Voice calls
Set "When not reachable" to your T-Mobile PAYT number
You'll also have to pay the divert call bit, which should work out at the o2 to T-Mobile rate.
