I have an ee contract with an iphone 12 mini which is about to expire. The phone is a basic one and the battery is at 89%. I dont really use much of its capability which is why I got the mini.
I am a fairly light user, but I go to Europe 5 or 6 times a year and pay an extra £10 for roaming each time. I am sure I have wasted some money. I dont want any hassle of worrying I will run out and/or accidentally run up an extras bill if something arises. I would rather pay a little more to avoid this concern.
ee offer a sim only "all rounder sim" with 26mb which is £32pm incl VAT for 2 years. I assume ee really want to sell me a phone rather than just a sim, but they offer an iphone 15 on a similar contract for nearly £60..
I quite like the idea of a bigger screen this time round which might make me use it for so much more eg reluctantly accepting that apps have to run my life and could make it better.
There is so much info out there about sim only contracts and people offering competing deals with or without phones. I dont mind spending a couple of quid extra every month but dont want to feel a fool and be stuck with the wrong thing for 2 years.
I am confused and need someone to tell me what to do. Keep the old phone, get a sim only with ee or someone else. Or get a new phone (with or without ee, which contract and which phone?). Must be apple. Lovely day.
