Which site is best for FREE TV's, Wii's, & Laptops ?

Hi all...

Me and my better half's Vodafone 12 month contracts end in Jan and Ive just started doing the research to find the best mobile phone website which has the lowest 12 month contracts which offer free gifts.

Ive been searching the web for free gift offers and http://www.buymobilephones.net/ & http://www.a1comms.co.uk/index.ihtml (theyre both owned by the same firm) seem to offer the lowest monthly contract costs in relation to the gift offered and the length of contract.

We're looking at getting a TV, and either a Wii or a laptop.

The current best 12 month-contract offers Ive found are;

FREE 32" HiDef TV & free Nokia 6210 handset @ £30 a month

or...

£69.99 for a 37" HiDef TV & free Nokia 6210 handset @ £35 a month.

The cheapest Wii Sports offer is a FREE console & a free Nokia 2610 @ £25 a month.

The best laptop deals are either a FREE HP or Acer laptop & a free Nokia 6210 @ £30 a month (which seems better value than the cheaper shop-priced Wii) .

Also, according to Quidco we would receive an extra £20 per contract in cashback, and, according to the BMP & A1 sites we could also claim one £20 referral commission - if this is right I could get another £60 cashback ???

The Nokia 6210 handset is rubbish - we will continue using our HTC TyTn II's and probably sell the Nokia's on eBay.

So, these are the best deals Ive found to date - do you know of another site with better deals ?

TIA,

M.

    Hi, don't know if anyone offering better deals but I have found them great to deal with. They have been 100% reliable when claiming cashbacks and free gifts, just make sure you follow there instructions closely.Some other firms seem to wriggle out of paying. At present I am chasing E2Save through the county courts for payment.You may find the firms that offer the best deals and not the most reliable.
  • I was going to use E2save but glad I've read this one. Looks like A1 are giving the better offer for the Wii I'm looking at. How are they to deal with though. Saving that towards the end of my previous E2save deal they started playing up with the cashbacks

    Thanks

    Me again...

    Both the sites listed at the beginning of this post are now offering the Wii Sports for £25 a month over 12 months via T-Mobile with a free Nokia 6210, but now with £35 CASHBACK as well !

    I'm hoping that by the end of Jan 09 the 37" TV offer will have improved too.

    Ideally, I'd like the 2 mobile phone contracts to total around £50ish a month over 12 months and get a free 37" TV & a Wii Sports, but to get this deal I will have to negotiate, I'd happily let them keep the handsets and cash-back in order to achieve the £50 a month goal - fingers crossed they're open to some haggling :)

    In the mean time - have any forum members found better offers from other sites ?

    Doh, they've upped there prices (for the Christmas rush ???).

    A 32" TV now costs £19.99 on a 12 month contract @ £29.37 pm.

    A 37" TV is now £89.99 over 12 months @ £34.25.

    The laptop deal looks the same though.

    Have any of you found better deals ?
