T-Mobile UK pumps out the iPhone 4

Shaves tariffs

Regcast training : Hyper-V 3.0, VM high availability and disaster recovery

Last month, we reported T-Mobile UK's price-plans for the iPhone 4. Today the telco start shipping the iphone, and has come in with lower tariffs .

T-Mobile UK starts pumping out the iPhone 4 to customers, along with lower tariffs than originally planned.

With the most tariffs, the handset is £50 cheaper than first announced. OK, T-Mobile is still one of the costlier options when getting an iPhone 4, but it's a step in the right direction.

Swimming against the trend, is the £25 monthly contract, which sees the handset cost increase by £20.

iPhone 4 Tariffs

Don't let yourself get phone jacked over pricing, compare the market, we've updated our tables (again) ®.

Where?

In some parts of London perhaps, otherwise I've found T-mobile to have the worst coverage in the UK. This is certainly true for the South and the South-West.

Whoa

That's about it really... pricey and all plans 24 months!

Got my Desire free on £30pm 600min/500txt/3Gb booster/free T-Mobile calls 18 months.

Sounds like I got a bargain!

Selfish but I feel the same way too

I have had smartphones on T-Mobile for about 5 years now, (HTC WinMos mainly, but recently iPhone 3G and 4) and consistently get better connections for data than my friends stuck on stupidly long contracts on o2, so anything that puts users off the better.

I'm still paying less than £25 a month for £120 of calls and texts, plus 3GB of internet including tethering, and a free upgrade phone every year I can sell. Long live Flex-T WnW plus with F&F discount!

Signal is a bit rubbish in some areas (Main culprit is Brighton, GF lives there but she has crap signal on o2 too) but as I spend most of my time in cities i've never had any real problems.

Wonder what will happen when all the Orange and T-Mobile tower merging is finished, hope it goes the way of T-Mo and not the other way, we have Orange at work and all we have is problems.
