Heard the rumours about iPhones getting cheaper or free? Well, it is getting cheaper but only with a new 24 month contract…

We’re proud to announce a new way of getting your hands on one of the most popular phones ever, the iPhone 3G. From 3 April, you’ll be able to get the iPhone on a 24 month contract and pay even less for the phone when you first buy it.

The new 24 month contracts give you the same benefits as our 18 month contracts, but you’ll be able to get the 8GB iPhone for free on our £34.26 tariff and the 16GB iPhone for free on our £44.05 tariff.

Here’s how the tariffs break down:
