    3 Mobile have it listed on tehir website now. Now many contract plans showing though and only one with unlimited interent for £35 a month.

    I think I'll be switching to T Mobile next month when my contract is up with 3.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    Is it likely that the sort of deals you can get through mobiles.co.uk will be replicated direct from the network providers?

    I can get the desire through mobiles.co.uk for £79.99 on a 24 month contract for £20 p.m. which suits me but when I go to the Vodafone website, the cheapest monthlyt plan I can see is around £30 with a free phone.

    I am unsure about ordering from mobiles.co.uk due to the number of negative comments I have seen.

    Btw, I know the t-mobile deals are the best value but signal is no good in my area according to their coverage checker - gutted!
  • well vodaphone contacted me today asking about my phone order??? !!!!!! i say, you turned me down on credit!!!
    they claim not, despite the email i have, apparently i can have 2 contract phones if i want!!!!
    so they offer me the htc desire, 2 yr contract 600 mins, unlim text and data for 30 a month.
    i point out that if i buy on the phone i will not get my 90 quid cash back from quidco. after saying no initially with a bit of haggling it looks like they will know a fiver a month of my bill for 18 mths. and i can order on monday when they have them in stock.
    (they will give me a call)
    so free htc desire, 24 mth contract 18mths @25 a month followed by 6 mths @30 a month. a result at last!!!

    how does anyone get a decent deal on t-mobile? I've called retentions twice now and have been quoted the new customer prices both times and they are unwilling to budge. Been with them 10 years, think it would count for something

    Same as you snit_girl... called retentions and quoted deals on MPD with they refused to match, quoted deals on their own website (and mentioned Quidco) which they refused to match... only deal they will give me is EXACTLY what is on their website.

    They obviously don't want my custom.

    Actually handed my 30 days notice in last week and then had a call back and they still wouldn't do anything.

    No need, the USB cable that comes with a blackberry fits it, as does the cable that came with myNokia E71 :)

    So I have 3 of these cables, I'll be fine:D (I just plug it into a usb port on my pc at work !)

    If anyone did that where i work - we would be pulled into a disciplinary!
    Using my phone to post - apologies in advance for any typos
