EE's wallet-busting 'Complete' tariffs come with a 50GB data allowance
EE split its pay-monthly plans into two tiers a couple of years ago, offering "double-speed" data and the highest allowances to anyone willing to shell out for its pricey "Extra" tariffs. Naturally, 4G contracts have become increasingly more affordable since, leaving Brewsters everywhere with pockets ablaze. Not to worry, as EE has quietly introduced new "Complete" tariffs crafted for high rollers that get through data as quickly as they get through cash. Like EE's Extra plans, opting for a Complete package affords you unlimited calls and texts, as well as "double-speed" data. But only on a Complete tariff will you find a 50GB monthly data allowance, inclusive international and 084/087 calling minutes, picture messages and the option to upgrade your handset early, one year into the 24-month contract. As you've probably gathered, these plans are just a little on the expensive side.
Complete plans aren't available with every handset bundle currently, but it makes sense that EE would offer them with flagships specifically. They start at an eye-watering £80 per month after all, which you'd hope would entitle you to something flashier than a Harrier Mini. But don't think you're walking away with a free phone, you cheapskates. Just to labour the point, a 128GB iPhone 6S Plus will cost you £85 per month on EE's Complete tariff, and that's with a £100 upfront payment. To be fair, EE isn't the only carrier in the business of money-is-no-object contracts. Vodafone, especially, has a few cringe-inducing options of its own: a two-year 128GB iPhone 6S Plus contract with a 25GB data allowance is £70 per month with a £109 downpayment. How the other half live, eh?
