    £516 for a 2 year old phone.. I don't think so!


    Quite correct this is an AWFUL "deal"

    I had to come back and ask why this was posted? It is really really bad.

    It seems to force you to have one data bolt on - £3 or above

    Was that an O2 Sim?

    Sorry, take the Bolt on then remove it once the phone is sent out to take it down to £15.50 :)

    If you're happy with the iPhone 3GS on it's current version of iOS, then fair do's, but Apple have already stated that it won't be supported for iOS 5.0 due out this Autumn. That version will only be supported on iPhone 4 and up.

    Well they've made a liar of me, I'm sure I read a direct quote from Steve Jobs that it wouldn't be supported, but the announcement at the WWDC yesterday stated it will be. Hey ho...
    Why pay more than you have to?

    Because it's the chepaest deal for an iphone 3GS at present and for some people it may be ideal.

    You get much of the functionality of iphone 4 (but not improved camera, video recording or enhanced processor speed).

    What would you suggest instead for c. £20 a month over 2 years??

    Hi All

    [SIZE=+0]My contract was coming to an end & I wanted the Iphone 4 -so I just upgraded my Vodaphone via [/SIZE]Mobile.co.uk via Quidco

    £35 per month tariff got me Free phone with 600 mins, Unlimited texts & 500 mb

    If I have read the deal correctly, I will get £120 cash back (though currently tracking at £35) & if I sell my phone back to Vodaphone, that's an additional £49

    All the above make it £28 quid a month, just £5 more than my current tariff .

    Now, the bizarre thing - just before I took this offer, Vodaphone rang me asking if they could keep me as a customer - I told them the above deal (not saying it was still via themselves) - to be offered a £29 phone & the same tariff but no cashback.

    Got me questioning how Mobiles.co.uk could offer such a deal - but there you go - hope it helps someone!

    it sounds great. my contract will end next month. it seems that i could do the same thing you did and ask a iphine4 for a cheap tariff.:beer:
  • Hi all - anyone with quidco experiance help me? I did the above deal with mobiles.co.uk - upgraded to iphone4, expected £120 cashback, but only got 50. Put in a claim, but its been rejected with the only reason that its tracked correctly? Whats my next move if I disagree? If it did track correctly, the £120 offer was very badly worded! Cheers
