Online O2 tariffs
Please note that these tariffs are not available from Mobileshop or from any other mobile phone company.
SIM only
You can choose SIM only online connections if you already have a handset to use. The SIM comes free with pay monthly tariffs, but costs £9.99 with PAYG.
GPRS
GPRS can only be used if you have a GPRS enabled phone. Although the phone can be always connected, you only pay when you are actually sending or receiving data. Once the data has arrived you can view it for as long as you like.
Text or minutes?
With some online tariffs, you can choose to have more inclusive minutes with your tariff, or fewer minutes and more inclusive text messages. These are the ‘texter’ and ‘minutes’ options.
If you choose to have 500 inclusive texts, you can use some or all of these to send media messages. One media message is equivalent to four text messages.
