Mobile phone deals with a free iPad

Are you craving an Apple iPad, but think you can’t afford one?

There’s no need to hand over upwards of £500 to a high-street retailer for a brand new iPad, because we’re going to tell you how you could walk away with one for free as part of your next mobile phone deal.

Get an iPad for £99.

How much will I need to spend?

Something that sounds too good to be true isn’t always, contrary to the famous saying. You really can get a free Apple iPad as part of your next mobile phone deal.

Don’t believe us? Let’s do the maths:

• Most “free iPad plus mobile phone” deals include a free 32GB wi-fi iPad (retail value £510) and a free low-end Nokia mobile phone
• Most such deals cost around £35 per month and last for 24 months, meaning the total cost to you will be £840
• Subtract the iPad’s retail value and you’re left with the total cost of the mobile phone portion of your deal - around £330, which works out to around £14 each month.

The deal would also likely include:

• A free mobile phone - not normally a smartphone but something mid-ranged such as the Nokia 1800
• Upwards of 1,000 talk minutes
• At least 500 monthly texts
• A monthly mobile internet allowance of around 1GB.

Similar deals bought without an iPad would probably cost you upwards of £20-25 per month, so £35 per month - around 50% of which accounts for the actual mobile phone package - is good value, however you look at it.

Ways to make your deal go further

Mobile phone deals including a free iPad also make financial sense if:

• You plan to pass the iPad on as a gift
• You need a mobile phone deal for your partner or child.

The most important thing is to examine both parts of the deal - the mobile phone element and the iPad.

Always ask yourself if this is the right mobile phone for your needs/or the needs of the family member you plan to pass it to. For example, is the mixture of calls, texts and data right? Is this the wi-fi iPad right for for you - do you actually need the 3G iPad?
