3510i free for approx 18month

JGal

dialaphone are doing an on-line only "as new" (presumably the phones that have been returned within 14 days) 3510i on vodafone 1000 off pk mins + 50 txt + free itemized bill / £17.70 month - free for 12 month (redemption in stages to air time account), now with an extra £60 cash back (to air time account at month 6) plus the usual extra £10 for an on line order.

So as I see it, at the end of month 12 you submit a claim for your last air-time "cash back" of £70, which may take 2 month to appear on your bill, (but the extra you get at month 6 is enough to cover this). So when you get that last £70 credit, this will take another 4 month plus whats remaining of the £60 to use up. So approx 18/19 months for nowt.

I have seem people say that they've convinced their airtime provider to transfer any air-time credit back to them at the end of the minimum contract period.

Horses for courses - All this is assuming an off peak, occasional text user who applies for all credit and is satisfied with this type of phone.

Note : I disclose a referal link exists.

correction : £17.50 / month standard

I asked for this last week, but was told none left in stock but "You have been approved by Three" and they tried to sell me a much inferior contract.

You will have paid £17.50 per month for the first 5 months and you will very likely not be able to reclaim any credit on your account so, in essence, it's not free - it'll probably cost you £87.50. Not bad, but better deals currently exist with newer handsets (brand new, not refurb) from the likes of One Stop Phone Shop & Mobileshop (have a look at the cashbacks available on Orange's OVP Relax 100/200 tariffs with e.g. any of the followng handsets: Nokia 2650, Nokia 3300, Motorola V545).

RM Thats if you can find any phones that OSPS have in stock. Ordered nokia 2650 for other half last Sunday. All went through OK but no delivery. No word from OSPS. Checked order "waiting for delivery to wharehouse". Sent them an email - true to the normal OSPS "service" no reply.
