Am very annoyed at the way mobile phone companies are trying to wriggle out of their responsibilities. mobile phone companies are trying to get out of repairing a faulty item giving only a 12 month warranty on a 24 month contract. I had a problem with Phones4U last week with a faulty mobile that is 15 months into a 24…

I've had terrible reception problems and have hardly been able to use the phone. Sometimes the screen doesn't respond to my touch despite service being available. I phoned 3…

Vodafone: grrrrr!
I was on a £20 per month contract with Vodafone, and some months after the end of the contract decided that, being happy with my handset and not using anywhere near £20 worth of calls/texts per month, it would make sense to go PAYG.

Quidco or Topcashback?
Who's more reliable for paying out on 12 month sim only deals? Just I'm going to take out a 12 month sim only deal with Vodafone and can't decide who's more reliable - Quidco or Topcashback?
