    eciate it if you set out what you need and they won't waste your time.

    If you tell them you want a BB Torch @ £25 per month and need £150+ in cashback it will be a very short and simple conversation - its not possible.




    Hope this helps!

    Every time i go in to phones you for, it starts off with what i want and they always try and over sell and put me on something higher i wanted a n97 (Big mistake) for £20 a month he tried getting me up to £40/£45 a month going on for ages how it would be a better deal!

    1st go on ebay and find ANY old N-Range phone... N70, N73(you can get 1 for about £10) as long as it turns on your fine.... They MUST trade in your N range phone for £100 as long as your contract meets a level... Normally £25pm on 24th deals or £30 on 18mth.

    How recent is this? My N97 only shows as £38 on envirofone, will they still cough up £100 for it?
    Basically, I want an iPad 2 so want to get as much cash off them as possible, don't care about the phone/deal I have to take particularly. worked there myself a while back, so I know all about taking insurance and cancelling and overstating the need to pay off old contract...
    Online is advertising £375 without any trade-in... so surely I ought to be able to wangle a good £450 instore with a trade-in?
    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    Arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon: no matter how good you are at chess, its just going to knock over the pieces and strut around like its victorious.
