I dont know about cash back, But I have used them in the past for sims and other things, And have had no problems.
it would be nice to know if someone has bought one of there phones and had the cash back straight away, As I have seen that they do a lot of phones with cash back and I have allways wonderd if it was worth it.
Peace and Love.

Many different opinions! Some advantages (not in any order) is:
+On most occasions you get a "new" phone.
+You get free calls/texts for about a year.
+You get paid for taking out that deal (i.e signing up through cashback sites like Quidco)
+If you through established and reputable companies then there is a chance that your more than likely to get all your cashback (assuming you have followed their T&Cs to the last letter) than all those who may go bankrupt (hard to tell unless you work for them).
+You can get extra money if you sell the handset.
Some disadvantages (not in any order):
-You have to remember when to claim your cashback everytime and make sure you send off your claim in time so that the company your dealing with will receive it in time for it to be processed otherwise you could lose the whole lot.
-Some companies can be very pedantic and may not pay out your cashback in some cases even though you have followed all their T&Cs.
-If the company goes bust then you will have lost the chance to get all your cashbacks.
-Taking out lots of these cashbacks deal may not be advisable as a credit check may be done when the network/company decides on whether they will allow you to have the contract which will dampen your credit rating. This might be particularly important if you plan to take out/purchase something big/expensive or something on finance in the near future.0 -
