But for £50 a month i got an iPhone 8 64gb free Spotify for a year and a ps4

Sounds like you got some really cool stuff. Although, I don't think I'd ever spend 50 a month on a phone. I'd rather purchase the PS4 outright and get something different. To each their own though. I've never spent more than roughly a tenner a month on my phone, and purchased phones outright/done giffgaffs phone loan option (aka, just pay for the phone and you're not held to anything else so you can leave/choose a different phone etc).

How long do you have your contract for?

I only go with a contract because it helps me figure out my month a lot better on the basis I don't have to worry about being down x amount but my contract is 14 months I think it was.

That's fair, although pay as you go bundle deals work exactly the same in the payment sense. They can be set to automatically come out every month. You don't have to go into a store and top up anymore (though that option still exists).
14 months isn't too bad! I assume you could renew if you chose to?

Pay as you go is much better than phone contracts in my opinion, much easier to buy the phone outright then top up whenever you need to by just buying a 30 or 60 day top up for half the price.

A 30 or 60 day top up? I've not heard of that. I've always done bundle deals since they became a thing. You also rarely have to buy a phone outright these days. Most companies are offering payment plans to pay off phones.

Here's an example: Giffgaff can let you get an iPhone 7, 32GB (any colour in stock), and pay 21 pounds a month for 2 years (keep in mind, that's just payment for the phone, you can choose to go to another network anytime as long as you continue to pay for the phone/pay all of it off), then anywhere from 5-25 pounds depending on what you want for data etc. AKA Less than 30 pounds a month for an iPhone 7 and you're not prevented from swapping to another network.

Oh right you can do that also, but in ireland its much more common to buy a phone outright then you can choose a top up deal depending on the carrier, like mine I could top up as little as a fiver or as much as 30 and get 2 weeks unlimited calls and texts with however much data for a fiver and with say 30 euro I could get 30 days unlimited calls, texts and 15gb data, but the plans are always changing and some carriers do better deals of course.
