I've had a look at mobiles.co.uk and e2save, where their deals seem too good to be true ie: they replicate the same deals that were happening a few years back with shops selling contracts on the cheap(ie:35/month, but 20 month cashback by redemption), and then they shut up shop after they got enough people on the deal and buyers were still left paying £35/month(costly!)

My contract finishes on April 30th, and I've had a look here:
http://omio.e2save.com/mobile-phone/contract/htc/HTC-Wildfire.html?tariffcode=D30TEJAN09

I think the deal Im looking for will probably be best off on T-Mobile on the £15.32 offer with 300 minutes, 300 texts and "unlimited" data(probably 1GB) with the mobile. I already have a mobile phone, so that will probably be sold off(if of course this site is safe to use) and they give 7 months free by redemption(every three months, after 6 months)

Again, is it safe? If it is, then I've got a cheap contract for a couple of years :) Or can any one else recommend another deal at a cheaper cost?

    The main thing to ask yourself is can you afford the £30 per month if you have problems with the cashback? Dont forget to go through QUIDCO as they offer £46 Cash Back in addition to any E2Save Cash Back.
    I am NOT a mortgage & insurance adviser - or anything to do with finance, that was put on by the new system I dont know why?!
  • I have used both these companies without any problems. I have always had my cashback refunded. You just have to remember to send your claim in within the correct period.
  • I've used e2save 2 or 3 times over the years and have never had any problems with them paying out - although you do have to remember to claim within the timescale.

    Think they are owned by The Carphone Warehouse.
  • BMP are as reliable (or not) as E2S, but it's really up to you to make sure you meet all the requirements.
    I have used both of the above in the past, as well as OneStopPhoneShop, and never lost out. But then I send all claim paperwork a.s.a.p., registered, and with Royal Mail consequential loss insurance.
