Cool New Mobile

Has anyone ever used https://www.coolnewmobile.co.uk as I was wondering whether they are legit and what they are like with cashback claims.

The "About Us" section of the site states that

We joined forces with 4U (Dextra Solutions) back in 2003.

Is "4U" the same as Phones4U?

Also, Quidco are offering £35 cashback for contract sales if thats any help. If Quidco has them listed as one of their merchants, would this mean that they are legit?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I took out a contract with them in Dec 05, I have not sent a cashback claim yet as it is not yet time to do so.

Their website is similar to phoneboxdirect. Also their contact deals are similar to them too.

When cashback sites offers these merchants, there is no guarantee that they are legit (almost all are). It could be just another way for the merchants to get more customers, knowing that people (customers) may take out deal (contract) if they are somehow paid (via a cashback site) to take out a contract. For reputable businesses they would suffer more from the damages caused, rather than gaining more customers if they did not offer legit deals, especially established companies.
