Is that much better than the deal some have got on Orange?

well excluding the Tesco credit card bit, 35 club card points a months is a rebate of £0.35 isnt it?

Orange do a 600 min and a 1200 min tariff, no 900 mins.
The 600 mins/500 texts/ unlimited data is £34.26 a month for 18 months, and the phone is £87

Thats the nearest comparison I can find.

As for the 35 points a month, thats almost insulting lol.

But still an ok deal. Never gonna be that different.

They do 900 mins on a 24 month contract, and tesco are offering this at £34.26 per month(well this is what the guy has printed off for us).......which is o.k for me as wifey usually does about 750mins a month.

Still 300mins more per/month than we were quoted from orange....and they wanted £187.00 for the 3GS phone on an 18 month contract.

Sorry, just looked at Orange again, your right. £184 on a 18month, £87 on a 24 month. That is indeed a good chunk of extra minutes.
One thing to consider though....
Will all the mintutes be used?
The choice really is 300 extra mins or the best 3G coverage in the UK.
If you are not going to use the talk time allowance, I would go with Orange.

Tesco's is with O2 not Orange

Tesco Mobile Network customers to get the iPhone


Tesco Mobile through its joint venture partnership with O2 is pleased to announce that it will shortly introduce iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in Tesco Phone Shops and online through Tesco Direct in the UK.
Taken from their website. Tesco Mobile runs on the O2 network

About Tesco Mobile
Tesco Mobile is the easy way to talk and text for less because we make it simple to understand and easy to save. We've teamed up with O2 which means the Tesco Mobile network covers 99% of the UK population.
Orange reportedly have the best 3G network in the country.

Not checked myself, but you can check here.

Personally I still find 3G coverage patchy at best
