London, UK “ 1 May 2008: T-Mobile today announces its simplified range of new contract options, with Solo and Combi joining Flext. The plans reflect changes in the behaviour of mobile phone users, build on the success of the current range, and offer customers greater value and choice.

 

Solo appeals to the growing SIM only market “ providing just a SIM card along with a market-leading set of inclusive minutes and texts (at 330 a month) on a 30-day rolling contract. Customers are able to keep their existing phone and number “ and enjoy 1400 minutes and 500 texts for just £30 a month.

 

For those customers looking for a simple monthly plan combined with a fixed number of minutes and texts, T-Mobile has created Combi “its best package deal. This new tariff provides a straightforward, highly competitive range of minute and text allowances along with a choice of handsets on an 18-month contract.

 

Flext completes the simplified contract range “ and continues to be a highly popular price plan, offering a unique, flexible monthly allowance that can be used the way customers want.

 

Vanessa Potts, Head of Post Pay, T-Mobile, said: We’ve listened to what our customers want from their mobile provider, and that’s simplicity and greater value. Whether you want the simplicity of knowing you have the most minutes from a SIM only contract, or just better value than any another operator “ T-Mobile has got it all.

 

Potts continues: We want our customers to get more “ whether that’s minutes, value or the best service. Our new contract portfolio offers this, and ensures that customers are able to get the plan that fits their requirements and more.

 

Solo, Combi and Flext are available to new and existing customers from 1st May at T-Mobile stores and online at www.t-mobile.co.uk. U-Fix, Family and MyFaves tariffs are still available.
