    From waht I read on this forum, they seems quite good in cashback although they used to take a long time to credit your account. Do a search on this forum. I am sure you will find other ref to it.

    e2save and mobileshop are the only two online retailers I currently recommend. Both are very reliable.

    However, I don't recommend e2save for O2 connections because they use CPWS (Carphone Warehouse Services) as the service provider. If you purchase via mobileshop you will be connected to O2 directly.

    And as lkoky states, you get the full 12 months free at mobileshop.

    Just curious, what is the donwside of having CPWS as your service provider instead of O2 directly (apart from the crappy CPW online billing system)?

    thx.

    Is that not reason enough?! Hehe.

    I'm putting a list together at the moment. Need a few things to be confirmed before I publish it.

    One fact I would like to confirm is whether you are more likely to get a better deal with O2 retentions compared to O2 CPWS retentions when going the upgrade route for your next contract. But I don't currently have any evidence to support this.
