    Ordered 2 from freemans at cost of £180 used CC after inputting the 20% discount code successfully and getting 10% off (auto applied on 1st order), wonder if Ill get the extra 20% as well on statement as it accepted the code. seems to be some people getting full discount others nothing, Im not fussed its a bargain anyway. Also I noticed that when I ordered for myself and accidentally put in the wrong postcode when creating account I then entered my address manually and it didnt ask for any more info and let me pay by card but when I ordered for a friend and put address in correctly it asked loads of questions about how long at current address etc and never appeared to give option to pay by card, also accepted the 20% code but not shown on confirmation so I expect he will get it on his statement! Great price for a very good phone

    bye hoo
  • Phoned up Freemans today to double check I was being sent the right phones and they are and have been disptached to me using CC.

    Would not give me any discounts when I ordered them though :confused:
  • Ordered online with freemans, got a conf email at £99.00 delivery in 9 days, no 20% discount though, will call them tomorrow to see if the discount should be applied but not holding out much hope, so I think I'll cancel that. Tried by phone with Grattan and she took the discount off so its £79 quid but she did say they were out of stock and might take about a month to get here, but I'm not in any rush. Thanks OP.

    Reading all the posts it seems as though ordering through Grattan using the discount code is more reliable as the 20% code with Freemans is not valid on mobiles and because of this not all of the discounts are being honoured?

    I've gone for Grattan but still awaiting my confirmation email.

    Pity the phone is pink but still a great bargain!

    Phoned the Credit Card line 0114 263 7077 and advisor asked me if I was a Gratton Employee - replied no adding that I wanted to pre pay an order, name and telephone number taken and I would receive a call back shortly....still waiting. In the meantime, rang 0845 7444333, opened an account, asked for a 71S 710L . The advisor replied 1 Samsung E370. I said no, the catalogue shows a Pink E900 at £99. Oh, she said, you want the pink one, no problem! I asked if I get the 20%discount and free post and packaging - of course was her reply be with me within 5 days as its a new account and has to be referenced checked.

    It is a cute phone, saw in The Link today at £199.

    Would luv to hear if it is unlocked as I am an Orange user. Have never unlocked a phone before so if it is unlocked just icing on the cake for me.

    THANK YOU ANTIVILLE ....what a post

  • I have just ordered one and got the 20% discount - however, the E900 Pink is out of stock (now there's a surprise!!!) and I was informed I am the 138th person on the waiting list. I'm not bothered about that though I'm not in any rush though. WHAT A GREAT FIND - THANKS FOR SHARING :j

  • When i phoned yesterday the lady at grattan said they have all been watching their screens in amazement. They put up 100 and they sold within seconds. She had NEVER seen anything like this and she has worked there years.
    She asked me did i know which internet site it was advertised on.

    eeerrrrrrr no...!!! :shhh:

    poor woman, she sounded very stressed. _pale_
