Consumer deal for business?
Does anyone know if any of the mobile phone companies are willing to let a business sign up for a consumer deal? I want an iPhone 4 for my business, but I make very few voice calls and so it is a waste of money to be locked into a business contract under which I am paying for 100 minutes or more per month. I just don't…

Does sending in mobile to 'mobile buyers' form legal contract?
I just sold a phone to Money4mymobile and was given a very generous offer (much higher then other places). I just wanted to know whether sending in that phone to them forms a contract or can they decide that their offer was too much and then reduce it?

Just wondering if there is anything I can do about this? I've had an iPhone 3GS for nearly a year now, so it's currently still within warranty but not for much longer.

Cashback deals.
Hi Guys and Girls, I need a bit of advice on what to do if you were in my situation. I was on a giffgaff contract spending less than £10 a month on a 3 year old and pretty battered iPhone.

I'm looking to buy an HTC Wildfire to use on my exisiting O2 contract. Has anyone seen any good deals on the HTC Wildfire SIM free or PAYG? The best I can find is £179.97 on Tesco Direct, but it's the white model and i'd prefer black. Has anyone seen anything better?

O2 Nokia 6700 problems
Unfortunately I got a 6700 on a new contract a few months ago as it's the only offer retentions would give for a price that I was willing to pay. Ever since then I've had nothing but problems with it. It crashes and shuts down during almost every phonecall, regularly when sending texts and sometimes even when it is just…

Blackberry Bold 9700
Hello, I am thinking of getting this phone from ebay from a person who has a good rating (over 2000 ratings at 99%) and it would be a face to face transaction.

Is there a cut off after which companies cannot correct an error in your contract?
A bit of a long one this, necessarily so alas... I am with Vodafone; in June 09 they illegally put me on an 18 month SIM-ONLY contract (I was at that point 8 months out of my original contract with them). This was done in spite of my explicit instructions to the contrary. In July they finally sorted this out and told me…
