    why?!

    What could possibly go wrong?


    probably because they have ordered one and now with the flood of orders it will probably flag up a error on the website
    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear
    Our thoughts are ever with you,Though you have passed away.And those who loved you dearly,
    Are thinking of you today.

    Could they take the right price from your card as they have your details?

    Then you will have to pay postage to return it and wait ages for a refund?

    Went for it as well. Now watch someone post it at HotukDeals as well and all hell will break loose, they'll spot the error and send out cancellation e-mails by lunch time.

    Oh cynical me:D

    In their T&C, it does say that they can change price at any time, but the price advertised at the time your order is processed is the price you pay...or similar.

    It's a giveaway phone anyway. Most companies give it away with contracts, some even with 'pay as you go' deals, as long as you top up a tenner.

    I've got a Sony phone and it's rubbish. But it is free, you might be able to sell it!
