    Don't ignore deals on sites like mobiles.co.uk. I know that they have historically had a bad press, but I've got an HTC Wildfire and my wife's got a Samsung Europa where we will pay about £6 a month each over the 24 month contract (300 mins, unlimited texts and 500GB per month). You basically pay the full £25 per month to Orange (or whoever) and then claim cashback after 6,9, 12, 15 and 18 months. I did my firs claim last month and it was very easy (online web form) and the cheques came quickly. I did a lot of research before I took these deals, but am very pleased with the value as it basically gives you a smart phone for a cheap monthly price. I would assure you that I have no affiliation with them whatsoever and am a cynical consumer generally!

    It was my thread originally - I have no idea why it has gone (I haven't been told why it was removed?) - thought it was a good deal and others agreed ??????

    It works out £4.38 pm over the 2 years after cashback.

    You got one booster for extra calls or unlimited

    If you want to be with Orange, I'd say either go for the SanFran or get the Galaxy Apollo from Orange (at least then you could upgrade the Android version). I'm with O2 and I was too lazy to get the SanFran & unlock it :rotfl:

    Thanks for posting originally. Very strange why it has disappeared, it isn't even in the gone but forgotten.

    Why would it pack up? I did notice you could get an extended warranty on the phone but didn't check the price. You have the phone guaranteed for a year, so if you are looking on the bad side and it did only last a year then it still only works out at £8.76 a month. i.e. £4.38 x 2, so it still seems a good deal then. Just leave a little bit of credit on your payg for orange wednesdays.

    I got the unlimited landline calls booster to give me the extra minutes as most of my calls are to landlines so hoepfully 100 mins will last me.
