Is this a fair deal?

Profile closed — Tue, 22 Apr 2025 05:47:13 GMT

I’m currently on a 24 month contract ends in may 26. iPhone 14 lowest storage, unlimited data, calls and texts. £50.50 was £49 but April happened.
It’s probably just me but am i being ripped off seems a lot of money?
What’s your opinion?

Thanks in advance.

It's not a bad deal whatsoever, especially with Unlimited Data.

Looking at a 24-month combined price deal on an iPhone 15 (the current equivalent in the lineup since you've had your iPhone 14 for a year) Unlimited Essentials is £64 with £30 upfront.

Even an iPhone 14 is still £56 for an Unlimited Essentials Plus plan if taken today.

You've got a good amount of discount off the standard pricing it looks like.

Always looks more expensive when it's over 24 Months compared to the marketing you see which will typically be 36 Months.

@Profile closed But you got this almost 2 years ago and you was happy with it when you took it out, since then you’ve had 2 yearly price increases as well. The device was also £850 So even if you paid £50.50 over 24 months it’s only £1212. Take away £850 leaves £362 over 24 months for the airtime. ( plus any upfront cost )
