    Are all these people who are getting refurbs already on 02?

    May be a silly question, but am in the market for a new phone this month, and am not bothered over the brand new/refurb thing.....

    Yes, I'm on o2. Have been for about 6-7 years.

    Regarding the contract length - the refurbs for some reason are only available on 18 month contracts. The o2 man told me that.

    Anyone have any ideas on the best deal I could get? At the mo I have an Orange pay monthly sim, £20 a month for 600mins and unlimited texts. As far as I can see, the monthly contracts with the iPhone only have 500 texts which isn't enough and I don't need all those minutes. So thinking of buying the phone outright and using the sim card I have now... that seems to be more MSE than paying more over 24 or 18 months? Orange website has the 3GS 16GB for £440, and quidco says orange will give £30 back when buying a phone over £150, so that's got it down to £410. Any ideas? Thanks

    Just ordered an upgrade from o2:

    Free brand new 3gs 16 gig
    18m contract
    600 mins
    500 texts
    Unlimited data and wifi
    £31 per month

    Happy with that

    Quick update, it turns out that it was a refurb 16 gig. I did have my suspicions and even asked the operator if it was definitely new and not refurb. I guess she lied but I'm not going to bother taking them to task, the phone is immaculate and I can't be bothered with any hassle.

    Why don't you get cashback anymore from Quidco for the iphone? Have they stopped it? I only ask as I got mine last year, no problems and am looking to get another for my OH.
