How To Find The Right Mobile Phone Tariff To Save Yourself Money

British people have been overspending on their mobile phone contracts by a shocking 194 a year based on recent surveys

. Those of us who are shrew are probably thinking of ways to save some of that overspend. Well these are some helpful hints on saving cash when it comes to choosing a tariff.

Knowing What You Use

Common sense to some but a large majority don't realise the amount of minutes, free texts or the amount of data that is allowed by their contract, much less how much they themselves are using.

Before getting a tariff that is totally wrong for you, sit down and work out how many texts you send a day on average and how many minutes you use calling a day.

Whether you currently have a smartphone with internet access or not will determine if you need to check how much data you use. Those who have a phone without internet won't have to worry. However if you do have internet access you should be able to get an application from the app store that your phone uses. That app should be able to calculate how much data you are using a month/week/day.

There are also online data calculators available which will give you an approximate idea of how much you use but it is much better to use an application on your phone for a full month so that there is an accurate measurement.

Have an Idea of the Phone You Want

If you know what phone you want it will make choosing a tariff that suits your needs best so much easier, the phone's capabilities are already known to you. Choosing the aesthetic of the phone over the technology, on the day you are buying it might make it so you have less choice when selecting your mobile phone tariff. This is because some tariff options are only available to certain phones or on certain networks.

Don't be Afraid of Other Networks

Once you are aware of the phone you are after, you can start looking into the tariffs that are available to you and suit your needs. Looking at other networks will help to give you an idea as to what the best mobile phone deal is for you. When looking for the best tariff for certain phones, being loyal to brands and networks will not always get you what you need in a tariff.

Find Online Help

Online deals are there to help you to compare mobile phones from a number of brands, networks and tariffs. It is made much easier when you have brought your list of possible phones down to one.

There are currently over 7 million mobile phone deals that are offered across the UK. This astronomical number is that size because of the amount of smartphones with internet access available which create new deal combinations.
