Battle for the cheapest monthly tariff

Update - Now available in two colours; black or hazlenut. 3 launched Britain’s first £9 plan on 23rd December. Customers can get a free Sony Ericsson G502 (was previously a free K660i) with a mix of 100 minutes or texts per month for just £8.81 line rental.
It’s being advertised as £9 a month to fit in with their pricing of other tariffs, which are based on old VAT rates. But with VAT now reduced to 15%, line rental is actually £8.81. So, even better vlaue for money.
Now, The Carphone Warehouse Group is preparing to launch a similar deal on T-Mobile. For £8.99 per month users will get a free phone with 100 minutes and 100 texts per month on an 18 month contract. It’s not yet known what handsets will be available or whether the £8.99 will include VAT at 15%.

Hi Indira
There are various tariffs that will allow you to get unlimited texts and at least 600 minutes but the best way to see these is to choose the handset you want and then you the search options on that page.
