Swap tariffs. If you are on a contract mobile deal then the chances are that your are receiving free texts and calls of some kind. However, the chances also suggest that your are not using all of them up every month.
So what are you doing paying extra money for a contract that you are not benefiting from? Instead, take a look at your actual monthly usage of texts and calls. Then have a look at the contracts currently on offer and see if you can find one that better suits your needs. You are bound to be able to find a cheaper deal if you currently use less than half of your monthly allowance.
PAYG. Pay as you go is an increasingly popular tariff plan these days as people try and tighten their belts to make their way through the recession. Whether or not to switch to this plan really depends on your individual phone usage.
If you are someone who uses their phone only occasionally, then there is no point spending money on a contract that offers you hundreds and hundreds of free text messages and calls. You will have to buy your own mobile handset to use a pay as you go deal however.
You only pay for what you need, can top up as much as you see fit, when you see fit, and many providers now offer their PAYG customers free texts and minutes too.
Many of us have experienced the horror of returning home from a lovely relaxing trip in the sun only to find our mobile phone bill has skyrocketed through the roof. You are sure you only made a couple of calls. But you did not anticipate the huge call charges, or the fact that you were being charged for receiving texts and calls too.
In the meantime, call and text rates vary from country to country, with countries outside of Europe increasing in cost rather dramatically. So do not get caught out, and before you fly talk to your provider about any special holiday deals they may offer.
More good news is that nowadays travel SIMs are also available that offer savings of up to 80 per cent on calls from mobiles overseas. Just pop the SIM into your phone, which you may have to have unlocked first, and you will receive calls for free and your own call and text rates will be reduced.
