Free LG KF600 VENUS & Free 32" LCD HDTV or HP 530 Laptop when you take a pay monthly contract with orange through eBuyer :) It's £30 a month, but I've seen these TVs for around £300 so not a bad deal. Also, don't forget orange wednesdays which could provide even more savings :)

    £30 a month for 18 months with a so called FREE tv.
    The tv is so well known I cant even find it on the web.
    £30 times 18 = £540 (is that the bargain?)

    Well if you frequent eBuyer you would have heard about the TV. It has good reviews and I've seen it in action and is a good tv. You can read more about it here http://www.ebuyer.com/product/136349 and it is selling for around £294.99. Take away the price of the TV, and you're actually paying £245.01 for a phone and 18 months of talk time which works out to approx £13.6 a month

    I never claimed it was a bargain, just posted it out here in case someone is on the lookout for a tv or laptop and required a phone contract as well this could work very well IMO

    The actual phone LG KF600 happens to be selling on Phones4u for 15 months free on o2 with more minutes and costing £30 a month - i.e. £90.
    Minus Quidco £60 means £30 for the phone and line rental and I should know I got it for bro last week :-)

    So still a rubbish rip off deal on ebuyer!

    Not a great deal to be honest! 300 mins for £30 is not great!! I was on T-Mobile flext for £35 a month and actually got £180 to use on either minutes or txts, that is a much better deal!

    I am currently on Orange £45 a month and I get 900 mins and unlimited texts (I believe unlimited being up to 3,000 a month) with this deal I also got a free phone (Samsung, when I got it back in December was about £200 to buy, later sold it on ebay for £90 in June) downgraded to my old Nokia. Also got a Playstation 3 free with this contract..

    Shop around if you are looking for free deals try the Carphone Warehouse this is where I found my contract deal!

    Plus if you take out their insurance which is roughly £25 every 3 months, you can cancel your contract half way through, obviously if you have a freebie - such as a tv or playstation you would have to give this back, but if you just want a cheap contract and dont want to be commited for 18 months its a good option to take out their insurance, as you only have to stay with the contract for 9 months rather than 18.
