3 samsung offer - weekend only

continualdiamond

Thought i'd share the offer i got today whilst in my local 3 shop when i was browsing for mobile phones.

It's a samsung galaxy portal i5700 on a 24 month contract on the internet texter 500 tariff.

500 minutes (per month)
Unlimited texts
Unlimited Internet
Free Skype™ calls
Free Windows Live™ Messenger
Unlimited voicemail
Unlimited Three-to-Three minutes

For £20, was £25. You also get spotify free for 2 months.

As an added bonus to get your sale, your 3rd bill will only be £5 (at least thats they gave me). I was also offered to purchase a dongle for £3, normally £30, which i did and will probably sell on to make some cash.

It was only on for this weekend, or so they say.

The phone comes in white, with a green casing for the back, so you can swap it over, or comes in red/black i think. I went for the green/white.

Bit wary of the coverage but they reassured me the coverage had improved and after all i get 14 days to return the phone if i want. My OH also works for a company that delivers mobile phone equipment to masks around the country, so i took his advice as well when he said the 3 contract was the biggest one they were deliverying.

Deal might not be for everyone, but suited myself, as this is my 1st mobile on contract having decided to give up PAYG.

One of my mates had this mobile on O2 and after 3 replacements as the mobile was keep crashing for no reason, he then bought a htc desire rather....just a heads up.

fairly good deal but the phone has not got solid reviews, you could sell it and buy another phone? but it doesn't really seem worth it in the long run. id say keep looking.

Well so far i am impressed with the phone. It's not going to have soild reviews if people don't try them though to be fair. I picked up a HTC (dummy) one in the store and hated the feel of it, felt really cheap.

We'll see how i get on with it, have 14 days anyway to change my mind.

its a great deal for the money but to be honest i would never have a samsung again - i had the tocco and have had no end of problems and i have heard nothing but had things about samsung phones!!

Be careful, if you bought from the store I don't think you have 14 days to return as you've had a chance to try the phone out instore. Also if you've had a play with the handset you may have broken the conditions of return.

I've also been looking at the galaxy and it looks like a really good phone. I'm looking for a non-contract version but not many about.
