    just out of interest, has anyone been denied one of these on the basis of a credit check? they referred my application to the network and seem to have cancelled my order. which is weird, because no other network i've had a contract with has found any problem with my credit check (including orange, in the past)... never missed a payment or anything.

    what really rubs it in is that a friend of mine took out TWO orange contracts recently, and he is literally thousands of pounds in debt, including to other networks, with debt collectors after him and everything. i'm not all that bothered as i was in two minds about ordering another cashback phone anyway, but it is a bit weird nonetheless. ho hum.

    I am glad that you got your D600, because I have just got off the phone from e2save to be told that my son won't be getting his phone because they don't have any stock to fulfill their orders.

    Anyone who has had the email regarding a delay, won't be getting the phone, as they are not expecting any more in.

    Grrr, this better not be the case. I'm about sick of so called bargains never turning up. This would be the third this year.

    Nikon Coolpix 5200 from Apple, Audigy 4 soundcard from PC world, and now this?

    I'm going to write a very firm letter if they tell me I can't have this phone and I suggest others do the same; don't let them win.

    You got 2 phones ? but ordered 1 ?

    Yes, but i think i may have overlooked something when i ordered. I was in such a hurry (in case they went out of stock) that i missed adding on the 30 text per month add on, so i went back to the begining and started again. I think i must have left the original order in the basket too.

    So, no, i didn't get a free phone, i got what i ordered.

    pretty much same story here. Already have an Orange contract, passed with no probs and all bills paid by D/D on time. However when I tried to order this deal a few days back, e2save sent me a text saying to ring customer service, I'd been denied!

    Funnily enough the orange contract I already have was also purchased from e2save

    To top it off though, I was unemployed when I got my Orange contract back in Nov. Now employed and they've declined me! somethings not right

    Disappointing to hear all the troubles. I personally think they have made a serious mistake with the D600 clearance, and will now any try any method to backtrack on orders.

    When I phoned e2save, they started offering me different phones to the D600 before I had even given them my order number. This raised my suspicions straight away.

    I've just phoned E2save as I'm having problems with another delivery of a different phone :mad: and they told me that the D600 Clearance phones will not be available for a month.

    Useless

    I have just received the Sony Eric. W550i (Silver), which I was offered instead of the D600 for my son. This is not on clearance, just 12 months free line rental, on cashback. I have also received my Nokia 6230i in black, which is what I wanted, but had been told would be silver! I presume the Nokia is unlocked as there is no orange branding on it, but I would not know, as I am not very clued in on these matters.

    try a sim from another phone in it and see if it work - ie you have a signal - can make calls - that should show if its onlocked! :)
