Phone + 'free' laptop

myrtle_2

Anyone had a good deal for this lately? Can't decide as there is much choice, ideally a 'free' phone & 'free' laptop would be good!

Problem being the free laptop isnt free! You can usually get the same phone and package on a much lower monthly rental so in effect you are just paying for the laptop monthly.

The laptop is not free you pay for it in the increased mobile bundle charges.

Someone has to pay for these free laptops before they are distributed, and they dont hand them out just because they feel like being nice.

another vote for "get a cheap contract" and then buy your own laptop

the cost of the free laptop is factored into the cost of the whole package and they are also normally tying you in for at least 24 months ( and those you posted rely on you sticking to strict cashback redemption times and conditions)

Try buymobilephones.net they seem to have good deals- I've used them before and they were quick with the phone and free gift!

£25 x 24 = ~£600
Phone:£30
Laptop:£300
£10 a month SIM:£240
Same Price(infact slightly cheaper), but if you go with say 02's £10 a month simplicity then you get
-300 minutes
-Unlimited Txts
-Unlimited Landline Calls or Unlimited 02-02 calls

Hope I helped,
