Sky mobile up their prices

Posted 28th Feb 2023

I’m buying an iPhone 14 and haven’t upgraded in a while and will get an iPhone 14

From sky mobile it’s £41 a month for 24 months then dropping by about £7 for the following 12

Is it better to buy from apple direct on interest free for 39.95 for 24 months and get a sim only for about £8 for the data I need

I’ve seen online and all the talk about price increases has me worried , at least with apple it’ll be fixed whereas sky have said they won’t up the data plan but I can’t find any info on their device plans

Any advice welcome

Just look at your own figures and it’s a no-brainier. Going with Sky in the first 24 months you will spend about £100 less. In the next 12 months you will spend approx £300 more. As long as you are happy to keep the phone for 3 years then the maths tells the story. (edited)

Worth pointing Tesco Mobile out as an option. If you do a Clubcard deal your prices are fixed for the duration of the contract. £36.99 A month for 6GB or £37.99 A month for 12GB On a 36 month plan. But you can adjust the length to suit your needs better, as well as having the option to upgrade at any time.

I hadn’t considered tesco but was hoping for the 256 gig model which is a bit more many thanks

Sky mobile device plan is fixed. All you’re doing is paying off the cost of the handset interest free over 3 years

Have they stated that anywhere that prices won’t go up ? I only found that data plans won’t increase, also I thought a bit of interest was applied as it seemed more expensive than direct from apple

Any price increases are only for the airtime plan, not the device plan
