Orange additional handsets - minimum contract time?

I’ve only just noticed that Orange offer “Talkshare” whereby you can add an extra handset to your contract account (and share the mins). This is £14.50 a month. Does anyone know anything about this? Is there a minimum period to which you have to keep this on your contract?

I’ve noticed a lot of internet shops offer these, and am considering purchasing this and simply selling the handset for a bit of profit (need to pay the bills!). Even if it’s a 12 month minimum contract (total of £174 for the year) I should be able to make some profit on that.

Onestopphoneshop even offer cashback deals on some of the handsets (which are free)!

    You'll probably find better deals on a separate contract, like more minutes

    Not really interested in the mins, just want to make a bit of money to pay off some really high bills I've had recentley.

    I've just seen that OSPS offer a c500 + headset for FREE + £160 cashback, which would make at least £100 profit for the year.

    I'm just still wondering how long I have to keep the talksharer for.

    just as long as you don't over-estimate the value of the phone ...
