upgrade offer-orange(cpw)

robbies_gal

ive jsut had a a call from cpw for orange offering me and upgrade-ive just got out of contract

she went stright into saying we can give u a htc wildfire for 25 pounds a month 500mb 300 mins unlimited texts but 24 month contract

i didnt say yes as she was going on and i said id like to think about it

ive got an iphone 3gs at the moment

i dont know whther to take the phone and go into another contract but just sell it off

any thoughts?

is this any better than their current deals or is she jsut trying to pull a fast one

Exhortation

I'd expect at least a Desire for that price and if a Wildfire is their opening offer then that's what I'd be pushing for. Also, if you're happy with the 3GS then I'd push them to see what deals they have on a 4.

thanks exhortation-they just bombard you dont they when theyre trying to sell something

i did say is that the only phone u have for free she said no but this is the best one-and the iphone 4 would only be free on a 40 pounds tariff

dont think shes doing me any special deals maybe i should ring retentions myself as cpw rang me

my husband has just told me he wants the galaxy s

wot do u think my chances are of getting that?

You would need to push quite hard but you might get the Galaxy S which is much better than the Wildfire, the Wildfire is going to be out as a pay as you go handset shortly and is not a premium handset like the Galaxy.
Also because you are with Orange you are not tied to CPW, Phones 4 U or Orange direct can do your upgrade for you.

In fact checking out P4U website they are doing the Galaxy S for £27.50 on an 18 month contract thats on new contracts but I think they can do the same for upgrades if you call them.

No1 son has just had an upgrade (P4U). £25. 18m. 300m, 3000 txt, 500MB, HTC Desire. Says this phone is much much better than his old iPhone and mine (3GS).
I have to say - it does look nice, very slim. GPS on it is quite amazing! Links to contacts on facebook too.

thanks everyone if the galaxy is that cheap on p4u i'll tel orange that to try and get it

Exhortation

Sometimes it's worth just taking a wander along your local high street. I was back in my home town recently and all the phone shops had "Manager's Specials" boards outside.
