For the sake of argument we use Cris as an example, he says his £20 a month contract is actually worth £40 compared to the new tariff. So that's £360 difference over next 18 months.

So the cost of the line rental for another 18 months @ £20 a month plus £600 for a new iPhone is £960. Take out a new contract at £40 a month and get a 32GB iPhone for £209 which works out at £929.

How is that cheaper?
