Cheapest Path To iPhone 13??
Discussion
I'm sort of set on an iPhone 13. Current phone is a Huawei P20 that is now 3 3/4 years old, working great but the charging port is giving me serious grief.
£10 a month on IDMobile gets me 20GB that rolls over.
What would be the cheapest way to get a 128GB 13??
Looking for approx 20+GB a month. I'm guessing buying outright won't be the cheapest. IDMobile do a reasonable upgrade that I'm tempted by.

Looks like the cheapest deal will be with IDMobile ... £79 upfront / £35.99/mth for either 20gb or 50gb data (£943ish): https://www.mobiles.co.uk/apple-iphone-13?sort=tot...
Or buy outright for £779 and keep your current deal (£899 total)
Not a 13, but I recently bought a 12 for my daughter. In the end the cheapest way to buy it was just to buy it outright and go on a PAYG sim. I think Carphone Warehouse were the cheapest for a contract, but as they own ID Mobile which piggy backs off Three I wouldn't personally want to use them as the signal is rubbish here.
Plus I like not being tied to a contract.

Got a 12 for my daughter as well at Xmas. We went contract with O2, no upfront and £30/mth for a 100Gb/mth over 24 mths Plus I like not being tied to a contract.
Most of the comparison sites (uswitch, etc) let you sort by total cost although no great deals at the moment. Around £950 total for a 24 month contract.
You could just keep your current ID mobile deal going and buy the phone from Apple, they do 24 months at 0%. Then you're free to switch your mobile service whenever you like if something better comes along.

Most likely dust and fluff in the charging port, a common fault. Clean that sucker out. £10 a month on IDMobile gets me 20GB that rolls over.

In fairness, some carriers are not ‘in contract’ as such.Plus I like not being tied to a contract.
You pay for the handset interest free over the contract length
The sim card is separate.
Have a 256gb 12 pro max which is £43 ish a month direct from apple after I traded in my iPhone X.
30gb 24 month sim only from Vodaphone is £13 ish a month.
Same phone, same contract direct from Vodaphone was £85 a month. I did get the discount / benefit of trading in the X but that wasn't for the £700+ I saved over 2 years.
Apple finance is through Barclays so your phone bill goes out in two payments, one to Barclays / Apple for the phone and one to Vodaphone for the SIM card. Really easy to do!

I tend to base them all over two years so it up over a grand eventually.Looks like the cheapest deal will be with IDMobile ... £79 upfront / £35.99/mth for either 20gb or 50gb data (£943ish): https://www.mobiles.co.uk/apple-iphone-13?sort=tot...

Three have it a bit cheaper, £183 upfront, 31p/m for 100gb of data works out at £927 over 2 years.

When I got one for my wife, direct from Apple was the cheapest method along with her existing sim-only deal from Sky.
If you want to pay monthly, you can buy from Apple with 2 years' 0% interest.
Yeah, I did this, like it as it is a way to keep my credit rating and it doesnt cost any more.If you want to pay monthly, you can buy from Apple with 2 years' 0% interest.
