O2 launches new Rolling Plan - a hybrid between Pay As You Go and paying monthly

If you’ve been thinking about changing your network provider, but want a little more flexibility in your contract - O2 have just launched Rolling Plan, the commitment free contract.

Rolling Plan gives extra flexibility and opportunity to pay monthly for your data and minutes - but without committing to a lengthy contract for up to two years.

This brand new hybrid between Pay As You Go and Pay Monthly, provides a contract-free option to get data, texts and those all important minutes for catching up with friends and family.

So how does it work? Well customers will be able to set up recurring payments, which effectively top up their phone for them every month - without the hassle of needing to do it manually!

Rolling Plan is available now for new or existing customers, and includes even more data and international minutes than other O2 prepay options, with deals announced for the launch starting at 25GB for just £10 a month.

Customers will also get the benefits of being an O2 customer, including access to Priority, which gives exclusive access to the hottest events at O2 venues as well as a range of deals and offers, and free roaming in the EU.

Data rollover will also be available on the Rolling Plan, so that customers can rollover any unused data over into the next month.

How good is that?

Customers can also change data and international minute allowances to suit their needs and usage, or cancel the plan at any time - providing peace of mind to those wanting to mould their phone plan around their lifestyle and budget month to month.

Similarly, if customers use all their data allowance early, they’ll be able to buy a new monthly plan to start at any time, allowing them to switch their package when it suits them.

Gareth Turpin, Chief Commercial Officer at Virgin Media O2 said: “At the time of a cost-of-living crisis we know some people are looking for more flexibility, which is why we’ve created Rolling Plan. For those not wanting to commit to a fixed-term contract or having to top up a Pay As You Go SIM each month, these plans allow customers to only pay for the data and minutes they need in a way that suits them best. It’s the ultimate hassle-free mobile plan for those that just want to keep things basic.”

So what do you think? Are you more likely to switch to O2’s new Rolling Plan contact over PAYG or a costly monthly contract? Or are you happy with what you pay at the moment? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
