Best Deal on 3 , any advice ?

Hi there

i am in month 10 of my 12 contract and 3 have offered to upgrade me a month early as i have had many problem with my phone nokia 6280.

my current contract us

direct video and talk and text 100

750 mins
150 txt
50 video mins
50 multimedia messages
£ 5 downloads per month
cost £ 30.00 per month

i want the k800i this is the deal they will give me

talk and text 900

750 mins
150 txts
cost £40.00 pound per mnth

to offer my the phone for free i would have to go on the above price plan which is £ 10 more each month, with less extras, they said the will give me the 1st 6 mnths of the 12 mnth contact for £20 pound then £ 40 pound for last 6.

has any one had a better offer from them ? is it worth waiting till next month when i can tell them i want to leave, and they might give me a better deal ?

many thanks for any help

  • Try your local Phones4u store.

    I just popped into my local one today to see what new phones are about as my contract with 3 runs out in about 6 weeks time. After talking to the salesman they offered me a K800i on O2 600 18 months for £35 per month (500 mins + 100 Texts) with 6 months for £4.99. They also said they would pay out the last 2 months of my 3 contract. They will also buy me out of the new contract after 14 months.
    I told the salesman that I'd have to shop around first, and he told me to come to him last as he'd try to match almost any offer I could find ;)



    Oh I almost forgot. They always offer you 2 or 3 months free insurance with your phone. For this you sign up to the insurance DD and they give you the money for the 2 or 3 months on the spot. All you have to do is cancel the insurance when you get home, saving yourself another £20-£30:rotfl:
  • try this one mate, direct from 3 (its an 18 month contract mind you)
