Not sure if I'm working this out right as I have not seen this sort of deal before, just seen on phones 4u site a vodafone tariff which is £25 a month for 12 months with £200 auto cashback ? So far seen this deal on three phones a samsung j700 black and pink for us women and a t303 which looks quite nice,
Also on quidco you can get £50 for vodafone which makes the deal free does it not?
Please could someone give me some advice as I have heard some horrible stories on cashback but this seems to be upfront and not by redemption ?
Thankz

vodaphone either pay out or delay it for like 6 months, according to threads on here.
im personally glad i didnt switch to voda when they had the £150 cashback on the tocco, as loads of folks said how theirs 'declined'.
go way to suck folks into a contract!0 -
That, combined with the £50 from Quidco for a Phones4U contract on Vodafone, is quite a good deal. The only problem is the minutes/texts are actually rather pathetic (though, I do have 3 Phones4U contracts on the same vodafone tariff, just for the actual phone).0

Thankz for the super fast supply! Wouldn't this be paid out from the phones 4u company rather than vodafone ????0

Yep, by Phones4U. So if they go bankrupt within the next 30 days, you won't receive a penny. Most unlikely though.
I just bought the same deal on the T303 right now.0 -

No.
You pay voda £25 x 12 (£300).
All the money you get comes from phones4u (ie the £50 via quidco plus the £200 cashback). But that only comes to £250, so you don't get the deal free.
But ignore the post saying voda may delay paying out - voda won't be involved in paying you at all!0 -
Thanks quentin, so it's going to cost me £50 for the whole of the 12 months ? So for just over a pound a week I have a choice of getting 50 mins and 150 texts a month or 100 mins and 50 texts depending on which £25 tariff I choose + plus a nice new phone ?

Yes - (assuming phones4u pay up! If for any reason they don't, then you will still have to pay voda in full.)0

Thank you, I just got it via quidco so hopefully all goes well !!!!0
