LG Optimus Black P970
I'm planning on purchasing a new LG Optimus Black P970 as it was my birthday last week so my Dad's offered to pay for some of it :j
Anyone spotted any good deals or know when this phone is coming out on O2 for example? The best i could get so far is 18 months on T Mobile for £30 per month which gets me 300 minutes, unlimited texts, email and internet. I know its out on Orange but their deals don't seem to measure up, do you reckon i could haggle with them to get it down a bit by saying i'll go to a competitor?

Orange and T-Mobile aren't really in competition with each other, so I don't think that'll help.
Might be worth weighing up the option of buying one SIM free (or PAYG) and getting the cheapest suitable SIM only deal?0 -
Was thinking about doing that but they run at between £380 and £450 and then it will be at least £20 per month on the top because its designed for internet and if i don't have that included in my SIM it will cost a fortune with me using it.
If i get a contract for 18 months it comes to about £545 ish overall, but lets say £380 (PAYG) plus £20 for 18 months is a lot more so i think a contract is a better deal overall.0 -
Between £390 and £450? You could get an Optimus 2X for less than that instead... pricing fail.
You're wrong about the SIM only deal price though, you can get internet tariffs for a tenner. (Mine is 250mins, ult. texts and ult. web for £10)0 -
