Quite a good deal from CPW (IMO)!

The Carphone Warehouse has the SE 550i (reconditioned) on O2 200 with 10 months at 99p on a 12 month contract.
10 X 99p + 2 x £30.99 (incl itemised billing) = £71.88
Go through Quidco for extra £30 cashback = £41.88 (£3.49 monthly)

    That looks just what i'm after!!! I got nokia 7600 last june from cpw 500 mins & 100 txts per month for £2.99 for 12 month contract so i am looking for something in & around that!! Friends who had the same deal as myself got phoned by cpw regarding renewal & best they got offered was new nokia but for £15 per month!! But then again they're not moneysavers like myself!!!

    ... and often they have a handset trade-in offer as well for £15 or £20 if you can find the old manual and charger - last year I sent then a Motorola that was so old I needed a larger Jiffy bag for the box, and I'm not throwing away the Nokia 5110 that the screen has intermittently faded

    i ordered a phone from CPW (the 7360 recon'd deal) yesterday morning and its taking a while to get through to be processed. My status is still on 'we've recieved your order and will process it soon'

    although it does say it takes 2-3 days for it to be processed.

    Blah! Online tracking says that due to the high volume of orders at the moment, they cannot guarantee next day delivery. But they're still highlighting their "Next day delivery" Guarantee on the main site!

    I had a look at this offer and it does look extremely good. Only thing is on the cashback information it says cashback is guaranteed on all new phones but as this phone is reconditione, would the cashback still be guaranteed?

    The terms for cashback are the same for reconditioned phones - submit claims within 60 days of receipt of 4th, 8th and 12 month bills. O2 bills are clearly numbered each month, as well.
    The only thing to watch out for is that the phone may be supplied less than one month before the 1st bill is supplied and the inclusive mins/texts are pro rata.
    Woohoo! My order has been processed and is ready for dispatch!

    Just to say my phone arrived at 3pm today and the blister pack included everything! SE headphones and jack, SE CD, data cable and orange, white and silver covers.
    Calls and text counters set at zero and phone seems to be in pristine condition.
