As we all know that Apple iPhone has gone from being just available on 02 to being available on various networks and from January 14th it will be available also on Vodafone.

Most of us would expect with that amount of competition the prices would be plummeting and more and more great deals being offered in a bid to get you to sign a contract.

Strangely though that hasn’t actually happened if you take a passing glance at the different tariffs you will notice that they are very similar and even the up front costs of the handsets are almost identical.

What you will need to remember though is that all the operators are in the same boat so to speak. They all have to pay a large amount to Apple for the privilege of offering the iPhone and somehow they have all got to get that money back. If you have the time and the patience you will find some unique offers for instance Tesco has brought the monthly fee down to £20. Before you make your choice have a look at knowyourmobile.com which has more details of the different tariff’s available and the pro’s and the cons.
