edit - i would also like to ask about mobiles2yourdoor cashback as well now. thanks in advance :)

Hi All,

hope your having a nice easter break.

got a question on my mind.

my contract is due next month and i'm looking for a upgrade.

my current contract is through e2save (£1.99) 600min 500txt. Cashback has been fine so far. Last cheque took 3 months to come though as it was 'lost in the post'. I had to call many times but thank god for the no 0870 numbers.

i am only using 350m and 350 txt though.

i have seen some nice deal on phones4u and mobiles2yourdoor, but was wondering what their cashback system is in comparison to e2save.

orignially i wanted this deal but with more minutes (there was one with more minutes but its gone now, i'm hoping they update after the long weekend)

from e2save i was looking at this contract

from mobiles2your door i was looking at this contract
http://www.mobiles2yourdoor.co.uk/contract_offer_details.asp?ItemKey=161072&MPItemKey=177813

indeed i will buy through quidco and sell the phone on to minimize my month cost :D

thanks in advance for your help!

    Why don't you read all the various threads on both companies? The answers are all there.

    They already have - many times over for those who care to search and read.
  • Unless you can get a lot of cashback that means you pay next to nothing per month, why not look at getting a retention deal? You can get them without free phones and get cashback instead, and I've heard of people paying less than £2 a month! With a load of minutes and texts!

  • Yep, but then if you get £150 credit in your accout, that makes it a lot cheaper again!

    I just called up and got the same offer!

    I think I just got the deal of the century on my mobile.

    200m 400txt unlimited o2 to o2 calls.

    18 month contract....

    £10 a month....(£180)

    15 months free...(£150)

    Average monthly cost....

    £1.666666666667!


    I thought my last cash back was cheap at £1.99 (600m 500txt, but only ever use 350 of each)


    SO HAPPY


    thanks for the heads up, it made me call back.



    yesterday i was offered £150 off as well, but on a £15 a month contract so it was still more expensive than a cashback deal.



    tried to switch unlimited o2 calls with internet but they wouldnt budge :P
