Tesco Mobile Now Offers Unlimited iPhone Contract For £45 P/M

Tesco Mobile has clearly demonstrated its intention of becoming a major iPhone reseller by announcing that it will be offering unlimited iPhone contracts for as little as £45 per month on a two year contract, down from the original £60.

Users can choose between a 8GB iPhone 3G and a 16GB iPhone 3GS (ed : really, it doesn't make sense to go for the former) plus get unlimited minutes, texts, web and WiFi; the 32GB version is available for an additional £79.

Alternatively, you can get 250 minutes and unlimited texts and internet for £12 on a short 12 months contract. You will have to pay £222 for the 8GB version, £320 for the 16GB model and £407 for the 32GB edition.

For those looking for more minutes can go for the £35 per month and enjoy 750 minutes and pay less for the three aforementioned handsets upfront (that's £100, £200 and £275 respectively).

Strangely enough, Tesco Mobile doesn't have any 18-months contract as it is the norm across the industry and only one 24-month one. Furthermore, sticking to a 24 month contract now means that you won't be able to get a new iPhone until spring 2011.

Still, Tesco's unlimited offer is the best one on the market significantly undercutting O2's (£60), Vodafone's (£75) and Orange (£75).

Tesco announced its iPhone offers back in December 2009 and you can find the latest prices here.
