Yesterday, O2 announced that they were increasing the amount of minutes that the iPhone users in the UK got. The rates are substantially lower, and show that Apple and O2 do want more users to buy an iPhone.
The new deal will give up to three times as many free calls and text messages for the same price, with £35 tariff customers – who form the bulk of the user base – receiving 600 free minutes per month instead of 200.
But the £55 a month tariff is disappearing - you'll get the same minutes and text for £45 or you can upgrade to £75. For £75 a month you get 3,000 minutes and 500 texts.
The £269 cost of the iPhone itself remains unchanged, and the length of all new contracts will remain at 18 months, said the company. It also confirmed that the iPhone's free access to wireless internet provided by Cloud will stay in place.
