Hi all,
my contract starts in a couple of weeks and im just about to finish my permie job to venture down this road. im really excited and there is some fantastic advice but im after some of your opinions on a mobile phone.
i currently have a personal mobile with tesco with 6 months left on the contract.
i need to keep this number as ive had it for over 7 years and is registered with everyone and any buisness that has my details.
im going to be working in sweden and will be recieving calls on a regular basis. which i will be charged 14/min.
do i buy out my contract from tesco for £210 and then take the pac code over to a business line with 02 that has a My Europe Extra which i don't get charged for recieving calls?
or
do i keep the tesco contract and get them to change the billing over to my business account?
so i get everything written off and then wait to take the pack code over once contract is up.
is this doable or is this a no no?
i really dont know what to do. many people said just buy out the contract. yeah its great on paper but if i can save a few hundred quid would be better or is it bite the bullet?
also 02 doesnt have the best phones. im on an iphone 4 and looking to go android like the HTC desire HD. but only available at Vodafone as car-phone warehouse cant do a bolt on My Europe extra.
Voda has the passport service but you take a 75pence hit every time you receive a call and then free for the hour. yeah great if you get a few calls a day but im 3 days in Sweden and i will get at least 10 calls whilst there (more from the wife) so 02 is up-to 1000 mins free on received per month. so these short calls wont cost me much.
its just that dilemma of what to do pay off tesco or get them to bill the business.
anyone have any experience.
really need some solid advice.
thanks all
