iPhone SIM Only deals have become very popular in the past few months.  Apple’s annual launch of a new iPhone to a fanatical base of followers means many no longer want to be tied in to 18 or 24 month deals and get stuck with last season’s iPhone when there are cool new versions on the loose!

Maybe you’ve shelled out £500 for an iPhone direct from Apple or perhaps you’ve picked up a good used iPhone 3GS on eBay – either way iPhone specific SIM Only tariffs are ideal for you.  They offer cheaper monthly costs because you don’t have to pay back the cost of the phone itself and many of them only tie you in for one month.

Tips for getting the best iPhone SIM Only deal

  1. Coverage is key – make sure you check the 3G mobile coverage for a network before you sign up to a SIM Only deal.
  2. Go for 30 day notice contracts if you have any doubts about coverage or commitment – 12 month contracts offer better value but you’re locked into the payments.  In fact you could try a couple of one month contracts to test coverage before settling down with a new network on a longer term deal.
  3. Upgrading to the iPhone 4?  Why not recycle or sell your old iPhone?  You can get between £100 and £300 for old iPhones via mobile recycling companies or by advertising on eBay.
  4. Consider the inclusion of WiFi hotspot access in your SIM Only deal as this can offer more reliable, faster data connections in places like coffee shops and airports whilst also reducing your chance of exceeding your 3G data limit. Exceeding your limit can be costly…
