I want to buy this phone on contract but it says 12 months free line rental at £35.00 per month for 12 months
12 months free line rental (equivalent after cashback)
£367.50 Cashback
£35x£12 = £420
cashback £367.50
£420-367.50= £52.50
Itemised billing for 12 months = £12
£52.50-£12
= £40.50
So how is that 12 months free line rental?

I think the first 3 months is £17.50 this is an offer from 3 of the first three months being half price line rental so
3x 17.50=52.50
9x 35 = 315
total 367.50
don't know about the itemised billing, is it compulsory? I'm with 3 and mines not0 -

Tappet Rattle is correct - here's the full detail of where all the money goes:

It's worth noting that PBD charge an admin fee of £2.50, ostensibly for credit checking you via a charge to your credit card.
