iPad Contract FAQs

What should I do before I sign up for an iPad 2 Contract deal?

You absolutely must be confident that the 3g mobile coverage in the area you are going to use your iPad is good enough before you sign up to a 24 month contract.  You don’t want to make a very expensive mistake and pay for a contract that you can’t use! Check your mobile coverage here.

Will I get WiFi hotspot access with my iPad on Contract?

You can get WiFi hotspot access as part of your contract with some mobile networks which means you could use WiFi hotspots in coffee shops, airports, pubs, shopping centres and stations to connect to the internet.  WiFi access is often faster, more reliable and gives better indoor coverage than 3G access.  It may also be excluded from your monthly data allowance too.

What is an iPad 2 on Contract deal?

Similar to a mobile phone deal, an iPad on Contract deal is a combination of a subsidised iPad with a mobile network contract, although you cannot of course use an iPad to make phones calls.  The monthly charge covers 3G access to the mobile operator’s network which will allow you to connect to the internet on your iPad whilst you are away from WiFi access.
