Just received an email from Quidco. This deal is the headliner - the Apollo is the named phone!

I talked to T-mobile today around noon and the guy said they were hoping to have more Apollos in later this week although he couldn't guarantee anything.

He also said they send the phones via a courier called UK Mail which apparently is not the same as Royal Mail. However you can request that your phone be sent via Royal Mail instead. It will still need to be signed for and generally takes a day longer to arrive that way, but for me it will be worth it because my nearest post office is much, much closer to my house than any courier sorting office.

I ordered the vivaz but reading this thread has got me a bit worried I've ordered a naff phone!

Most people prefer the Android OS, the Vivaz runs Symbian...

See what you think when you get it, you might not even be bothered by operating system differences

Same here, the "local" sorting office is about 10 miles away and I missed it today. Says they'll try tomororw but I'll miss it then too.

What will happen then, can they not just resend it via royal mail?

A quick warning. On your delivery report it will say £4.16 delivery. Make sure that on your 1st bill you get it removed as its free delivery when you order online

I ordered the vivaz too as it said android on their advert on T-mobile site. Have heard people are swapping these for the LG phone instead.

Android obviously has loads of apps, how does the Ovi app market compare, anyone??

I ordered the Vivaz believing it to be Android - not really techy I'm afraid, and thought since it was advertised as Android then it was ! Just rang them and the guy I spoke to said he was unaware of any errors and that if I'd used the phone I couldn't send it back. I told him about the website advert but of course T-Mobile have changed that now; I suppose it's still a reasonable deal, but even so I can't help but feel I've been duped by them. Don't suppose anyone has got a sreengrab of the original advert where it stated the Vivaz was Android ?

In the past I have had this problem as apparently it is a default setting (or they are trying it on). When my bill arrives I usually ring them up and without a fuss it is removed.

It's still on Google cache (probably not for long):
