iPhone cooling off?

Upgraded to iPhone 4 finally yesterday - it asked for iTune 9.2 to activate?!? spent the next few hours on mobile broadband, but keeps stopping. So basically, this contract will cost me over £1000 in the next 2 years, and the phone doesn't work out of the box - plus I'm out of touch for a whole weekend. :mad:

Will try again later, need to make calls; but intend to take it back tomorrow morning. Do I get charged if I use the minutes, or internet?

read that Tesco charges alot for internet on cancelled contracts, no idea if Vodafone does the same.

thanks! :)

    I'm not sure exactly what problem you are describing - are you saying that the phone will not activate when connected to itunes?

    I can't get iTune downloaded. :( and naturally iPhone doesn't come with iTune on a disc. It was an upgraded in store, the sales person confirmed the 7 day cooling off.

    well the iphone is not faulty , find a wifi connection and download the itunes software
    7 day cooling off period does not apply to mobiles bought in store
