    I just took out a contract with Orange for my daughter. They are out of stock on the Sanfransico so I took the Samsung Monte not as good a phone but the deal I took is good.

    50 mins/unlimited texts/250mb data a month. £10.21 a month went through quidco and will get £150.00 cashback hopefully. It is a two year contract but with the cashback it works out I will be paying £3.96 a month.

    Found the deal on HUKD anf thought it was worth it as long as I get my cashback.

    Be aware the unlimited texts will be 3,000 and check if receipts for texts are sent as my daughter got stung with Orange due to a receipt for every text. You can phone and cancel this.

    So OneStopPhoneShop seem to be out of stock now as I can no longer find the product. Mobile.co.uk say it's in stock at £79.90 but after ordering it I got an email saying they have no stock.

    Anybody know where has the San Francisco in stock at the lowest price?

    To answer my own question I've just managed to get one from Argos for £89.99 including £10 top-up. Not online, but there were a few in stock near me (Cardiff). White ones too which is a bit different.

    Urr... tell a lie. Argos still require a £10 top-up in addition to the 'free' £10.

    As far as I know, everywhere CHEAP is out of stock, leaving Argos & Orange as the only options...
  • Carphone Warehouse still have them in online £79.95 + £10 top up. got mine delivered next day last week.

    Sorry, when I have clicked into it they are out of stock.

    I read on HUKD that there is some confusion over this with some stores doing it one way and others another

    I thought Orange £69 + £10 topup (for existing customers only) was the cheapest - is there anywhere cheaper?

    just got the £7.50 t mobile sim deal with the free internet booster.
    any advice on a reliable/ cheapish wi-fi / 3G phone out there on payg . alot seem to go for the orange san fransisco( would have to unlock and this is as expensive as i want to go) or is there better phones. only realy need it to do simple internet browsing at best. what phone do you think suits my needs .any advice greatly appreciated .
    update... went for the san fransisco as teco doing a fairly good deal and also used the £10 teco direct voucher making this an even better deal.

    if you are already Orange PAYG customer. Just call their CS to buy a OSF for £79. thats including a tenner top-up. Like someone already said then slip in a giffgaff sim. hassle free and you will be able to cancel the contract anytime you want.

    did anyone get this £10 top up? i paid the 79 but just phoned orange saying i didnt get my £10 top up n they said i wasnt due to get one? was sure the guy said i was due a top up

    You were lucky not to be asked to pay £10-20 topup extra in the store:
