kind-of-free virgin phone

If anyone has been on virgin for a while, did you know that you automatically collect what is known as red reward points. 10 pounds worth for every 100 pound spent. I had 30 pounds off price of a phone, so i could of got a free phone. BUT it gets better - if you go for a more expensive phone you can get 30 pounds of credit free as well.

See my logic.

motorola l6 phone with free 30 credit, costs 60 quid but minus the 30 quid in rewards points and now only cost me 30 pounds which i am getting back in airtime.

To put simply i have brought 30 pounds airtime and got 60 pound phone for free to sell on ebay !

Nice. Check out your points on the web or virgin shop.
And dont just get a cheap phone, you may be better off adding money like i did and getting airtime for free. Cheaper phones only had 10 pounds free.
