    I phoned up carphone warehouse, and they actually tell you if they've received your statement and are processing your cheque (which they are!)

    total sweetness! This is the 2nd freebie phone I'm currently on from carphonewarehouse

    :j I always get my son and myself a free phone each in december and try to get the best deals such as free line rental as you still have to pay the VAT which you don't get back, so it makes a great xmas pressie and you spread the cost over 12 months, then reap in the cashback. hope this is helpfull to anyone. T:xmastree: merry xmas
    Is that true then, do you still have to pay VAT on a 12 month free line rental? Am I right in thinking then that these phones aren't totally free?
    e2save state prices include vat at checkout....

    I have no idea about this VAT business, I've always got 100% of the money back and not had to pay VAT

    I've always had my money back in full. I've never heard of not getting the VAT back.
  • Please please please can someone help me.

    I purchased the nokia 2100 phone in april and according to my online account, i have 3 bills - may, july and august. Can i just get confirmation that on receipt of the 4th one, i print out all four bills and send it to the address with a corresponding, name, signature note etc?

    I'm just a bit anxious as I've never purchased from CPW before.

    You just send in the fourth bill which you received since you have had the phone. No need to send all of them in, just the photocopied or printed 4th one via recorded delivery.
  • Thankyou :)
