I never thought i'd say this... but plan to get a phone for my oldest starting secondary in sept.
We won't be doing iphone or similar, but what is acceptable for yr 7 kids - do they usually have old leftover brick phone or do parents tend to splash out on something better? Is a basic smartfone a must? We are pretty skint these days so it'll need to be a cheap option.
Contract or payg? Safety/being able to contact is (my) main reason for agreeing to it - but if payg is there a danger that when you need to contact the credit's run out? But am i right thinking even cheap contract can unintentionally run up big bills?
