Carphone Warehouse Iphone
Hi new to the forum was wondering anyone could shed some light to a jobless student :<
I've purchased a iphone 3g from cpw hoping to use it one day when it is able to unlock, so instead i jailbreak it just for the music, video and app but had gone wrong. I had accidently activated the sim card without passing the acitavtion from itune and that 30 pound a month is to much for me since im kinda jobless this moment and won't be able to afford to pay it. Atm im in the 14days cool down, are there any way to cancel it? i only used 2min of the contract and had repacked the iphone to it's original state

I didnt know you could buy the 3G phone and NOT take out a subscription, like the original IPhone? I thought everybody who bought a phone had to take out a subscription?0

Something is very very fishy about this post.
Scope you are right. It is IMPOSSIBLE to buy (from carphone warehouse) a new iphone without a contract which would involve credit checks.
If the OP isn't being honest about how he got it then I wouldn't want to help too much!
You really wouldn't have been able to get it without having a credit check passed first. All very fishy...[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The internet is a great way to get on the net."

you just need to choose any tariff, they don't charge you the tarif untill you activate your sim so you only pay for the phone but i accidently activated it. It's the same procedure as the old one but at my hand im kinda in tight situation > .<
ermm you are require to do credit check but i didn't have the much money on my bank, i did it online0 -
You are credit checked and activated instore, it isn't done via iTunes at home anymore, everything is done in store and once home you connect to iTunes to back up, restore and run.0

Not for me because i had order it online, neither do apple store. I'm still on cool down since i purchase recently, if anyone could actually help me out >. < can i cancel the contract as i still in CD but arn't to sure bout the 2min call time i used on the sim0
