Sorry forgot to mention :
Im only looking to get a 12 month contract, I dont want to pay more than £40 quid a month (but am willing to pay £45 if theres a good deal etc.)
Ideally I would liek sumit with at least 400 minutes and 100 texts, preferably 500 /600 minutes and 100 txts
Im not too bothered about the phone.. because i already have a fone.. i would like to remain on Three network.. because of the phone which i have is on Three at the moment and i like the services they offer
Many Thanks in advance, jag0 -

Hey Jagveer,
E2save are part of the carphone warehouse company, so they are quite reliable. Choose the Talk and Text 900 (12 month contract) which is about half way down. It gives you 750 anytime minutes and 150 texts with 7 months half price rental, so your average line rental would be £28.33 a month. Its up to you what you can do with the free Nokia 6280 as you said you already have a phone...maybe flog it on ebay?Its better to close your mouth and appear stupid, than to open it and remove all doubt...:p0 -
whoa, lol chcked sum stuff out there.. nice deals
but shud i trust E2save lol !!? .. im sure there was a thread earlier about them not returning cashback etc.
Btw how much do u reckon I could sell that fone for
or maybe i shud keep it.. i have a motorola A1000 atm0 -

E2save are top of the list for the compaines which pay up for cashback. I am also on a E2save cashback, and so far they have been great. As for the phone, I would keep the Nokia 6280 as it a new phone, and sell the Motorola A100 on ebay...but its up to you...Its better to close your mouth and appear stupid, than to open it and remove all doubt...:p0 -
this deal dont look 2 bad either.. less minutes etc. but is N70 better than the 6280 ?

look at it this way, you know roughly how much you want to spend, and roughly how many minutes/texts you want.... if you're prepared to pay £40 per month then that should be sufficient, the cashbacks after that are a bonus, if you were prepared to pay £40 per month anyway, and you miss a deadline for a cashback, you should still be happy with the deal.. However, plan it right, and you'll be quids in!!
Personally I'm forever recommending Tmobiles FlexT tarrif, am paying £30 a month and last month I made an exact even split of 600 minutes and 600 texts. What does desuade some people is the 18month contracts, but compared to the £100+ bills I was getting, am still gonna be quids in the long term. Dont fear places like e2save, or dialaphone, they've been around a while, and if you follow the process and cover yer back with the cashback deals, then you'll be fine, there's probably hundreds of people on here with positive stories about these places...£4988 Lloyds TSB Mastercard
£400 O/D Lloyds TSB
£2650 Lloyds TSB Loan
£5070 Black Horse Finance
Skint, but I have a plan.... an MSE Plan!!!0
