    Of course it didn't arrive! I made sure I was in, but when there was no show I contacted phoneboxdirect to ask where it was. I was told there was a problem with my address.

    Surely they would contact me if there was a problem and they advirtise next day delivery, and the confirmation email had come through to my email account... of course not!

    I haven't got mine yet as I had to get it sent to my old address which my card is registered to (my parents - I'm lliving away from home as a student) and as my folks are away this week and I haven't had chance to go pick it up, I don't know if it has been delivered or if it is waiting for me at the post office depot.

    Similar situation with my gf in that it had to be delivered to the address where her card is registered (her dad's). However she's spoken to him and it was delivered on Tuesday but she's not had time to get it yet.

    I think I'll phone Phonebox Direct to check that my phone has been delivered, either to a neighbour or to the post depot.

    The phone is in absolutely mint condition, cant tell the difference from brand new, the lcd screen protective film still on.
    i think they can just put another screen protector on when they refurbish it :confused:

    Just to add that I have just rang Phonebox Direct and they told me it was dispatched and that it's at the local postal depot. I'll pick it up when I've got chance.

    I did a 'search' here and all seems fine regarding cashback.

    All the details are in the T+C. All of it is very straightforward with no ambiguity like a lot of other places.

    When you buy the phone, an e-mail is sent with a reference and a link to the cashback in pdf form, which I've already saved and printed out a load of copies.

    I've also ordered this. I think for the first 3 months, 3 automatically give you half price line rental from the off. So for the first 3 months you are only paying £17.50 for the first 3 months, and £35 for the rest. Bear in mind, the cashback may take up to £28 days for them to process.

    Thats not so bad then. Are you sure about the 17.50 for the first 3 months?

    Do phonebox direct stick to thier cashback?
