Nothing here....but can you please tell me more about the coming phone concept? I'm getting a new phone for my birthday which will free up my old one.....do I just need to get a new sim card for it ?(payu as you go or something?) And if so, do I literally just pay as you go or do I need to pay line rental or anything?

thanks, and hope your caller calls back with good news

Hi

You need to make sure that your old phone isn't locked to a particular network ie orange, vodafone etc. Then just buy a payg sim. Often you can get them for free, there is a thread on the forum board about which one you might be locked with. You can get phones unlocked but it will cost. You dont need to pay line rental if your just putting in a sim, as long as your old phone isn't stuck to a line rental contract already, just put sim in and go.

I have a seperate one, because i dont like to have any marketing calls etc on my work/friends phone. Also you know straight away that only comping people are calling although it might just be telemarketing, no matter how careful you are with the tick boxes:rotfl:
Hope that helps. PM if you need to ask anything else.
No call back yet so prob telesales.
Thanks for your good wishes and to other posters for their helpful replies and good wishes too.:)

I got a marketing call from eon too I just pointed out that I do NOT enter comps where it is specified that I get a marketing call to be eligible to enter.

Hope yours is a win and that they call you back.

Hi everyone !!

I've joined the site just now to add this post.

My brother in law had Thomas Sanderson shutters fitted in his new house in October and when we went to visit him over xmas we liked them so much he recommended us for a quote. Half an hour before the salesperson was due i started doing some digging. See this thread and started reading..OMG why am i bothering i thought ? I was expecting a young guy in a cheap suit giving it large and telling me he has to ring his manager to get it cheaper etc etc..(just like the double glazing firms).Anyway to cut a long story short the bloke turns up very nice bloke about 55 very nice,very polite no pressure,gave us a quote and left. The price never changed and got suddenly cheaper to get the sale,none of that. He was here 90 minutes and left. He told us how to get it 10% cheaper by taking finance and paying it off early which would of saved us a packet. This was about a month ago and i've had one call since from his manager just to say that the January deal was to finish and if i wanted it at the price quoted i would have to act asap.
And...No i do not work for them !! Honest !! I work for BT Openreach so slag me off about that if you like !!
If you are getting a quote ask them to quote you for UPVC as they look exactly the same and are 35% cheaper than wood. We were going to have UPVC in the bedrooms and wood downstairs to save but the quote was about £2200 and we decided it was too dear in the end.
My brother in law paid £3000 for 3 large shutter for windows for his house. Might get Hilarys in as my dads friends daughter had them and was impressed although apparently they screw into your windows to fix them on a bay window which i don't like the sound of. I did ask the saleperson if Thomas Sanderson did this and he said i'd have to order and sort it out with the fitter when they come to measure up properly which i thought was stupid having to place an order before i found out.

Hope this helps

Joe

I got a call about an hour ago on my comping phone "have you been involved in an accident........"

I always swear at the recorded message, for some reason it makes me feel much better :mad:
