dial a phone contract
i wanted new contract,
looked on dial a phone, see the htc wild fire
£12.50 a month with £225 in redemption payments, so the eqivalant to £5.63 a month.
free phone
free delivery
they will give £45 6 months, 10th month, 13th month, 15th month, 19th month, n so on for 24 month contarct
based on my figures you only pay £120 for the 24 month contract in total, and get unlimited text, and 100 mins per month
and free htc wildfire android phone.
my question is
is this genuine. or is there a catch somewhere.
how can they do a contract where they wouldnt make any money

They have plenty of deals like that - they are genuine.
They (or network) make money when a percentage of people fail to make claims.
They are reliable with cashbacks as long as you keep to the conditions.
I think I can see the deal you are looking at - it reads "12.50 a month 90 months" - hmmm - a little extra zero me thinks.0 -
i read that you have to send the monthly bill to them a few weeks before cashback is payed is that true0

The catch would be if you didn't claim all your cashbacks!!!
But these deals are easily possible if you put the effort in.
This looks a great deal, but it's showing 90 months. lol
It may be a glitch, but over 24 months I would go for it.
Dialaphone are part of the P4U group, so genuine.

You would also get £35.35 back if you go via Topcashback, extra value and would reduce your overall cost.

They supply with you with the bills required and the dates between which they must receive the bill. As long as they receive the bill within the range of dates, you get your money. Specifically its 60 days you have per claim to make a claim (i.e. bill date + 60 days).0

Can't quite work out how they get to £5.63 and with the error on their site, I would wait till they rectify it or confirm with them what the offer is before ordering anything.
Another retailer has a similar sort offer (costing virtually the same with same phone) but it has internet too and for 18 months.0 -
This is a "glitch"!!!!!!!!!
It should be 9 x 12.50 + 15 x £15 p/m = £337.50/24 = £14.06 p/m.
I wonder how they would deal with this??

Just like they did with their last error earlier this year - when the masses placed orders for deals where the customer would end up with money in pocket and with £300+ phones free. In short - not accept the order.0 -
E2save have it on 9 months free, a better deal (without the glitch).

Best deal I found was with the retailer that cannot be mentioned on here - It was for 18 months with t-mobile - 100 mins, 100 texts and 500MB internet (12 month free) - got it for me bro.

If you do go for this deal dazz, take screenshots of everything, but like OneADays says, it will more likely be cancelled.
Is the 12 months free deal still available OAD??
Yes it is: You need to check out Mobiles.co.uk website. lol
