    Im on 3 at the moment and the reason i want to change is the shocking reception where i am, and its beginning to get ennoying so i am changing, the problem is that orange and vodaphone have pretty much the same reception! :(
  • HTC hero on t-mobile (called g2 touch) is being offered at between £21.50 pm to £30 pm depending on who answers your phone call

    After ringing a good few times managed to get the operator to offer me:
    HTC Hero/G2 Touch free
    800 mins
    500 texts
    unlimited internet
    £22.50 p/month / 18 month contract
    Cost = £405
    Plus recommend a friend for £25 high street vouchers
    Total cost for comparison = £380 :rotfl:


    Good Luck!!

    P.S. 0800 956 2208 is their sales team number
  • Again similar to above,

    I got free handset,
    200 mins,
    unlimited texts,
    unlimited internet,
    £22 per month (at moment its actually £21.52)
    18 contract,

    again ive lowered the overall cost by using recommend a friend and getting £25 high street vouchers,

    T-mobile have impresssed me so far with their CS, but they may just be because i used to be with three !!

  • Can anyone tell me whether the £21.50 includes VAT or is it excluding VAT ??

    Reading the post after that, I would say it definitely includes VAT as it's going up from £21.52 to £22 when the VAT goes back up to 17.5% in January.

    Have to say you guys were lucky in getting that, no matter how hard i tried they wouldn't budge from £30pm. annoyingly i rang up as a new customer and i got a better deal, spoke to upgrade dept and cancelations dept and they claimed that the original sales person got it wrong. I spoke to 3 people in the the T-Mobile sales dept getting the same deal each tiome yet upgrades and cancelation claim it didn't exist. Needless to say i've now gone over to orange

    Thats a very good deal as the phone itself still retails for 350 quid SIM only.
