  • Hi Spikey
    I always think that if it's too good to be true, then it probably is!
    It does look tempting though. Where's the catch, whats the small print say.

    Before taking any deal make sure you do a thorough background search first:
    • Search on here
    • Google the website name (eg. themobs.com) then click "sites containing the term...." - look for complaints and reviews
    • Do a whois search on the domain to find the owner
    • Do a companies house search on the company's name (beware of newly registered companies, overdue accounts etc.)
    Like I say though, I would only consider cashback from Carphone Warehouse, The Link or e2save (part of Carphone Warehouse) - better safe than sorry. :)

    I knew I could always trust a Fellow West Yorky to help cheers.... so what great deals are there around...?

    None really :(.

    I decided a couple of months ago I would go for the next good, safe cashback deal I see from CPW, Link or e2save, and here I am still on PAYG.

    I was tempted by one last week here, but decided against it after reading comments calling it a "girl's phone" :rolleyes:.

    Well that phone is a bit ..... isn't it?

    If you wanted to then you could always go for the V3 razor pink...lol
