If you go to Oldham town centre, Woolworths have them on the shelves, and the independant computer shop (can't remember the name) opposite Home Bargains had them in stock. I just saw these in passing as we got one in April, didn't realise there was a big shortage on again. Will check other shops in town on Monday and post if there are any there.0 -
not to be too cynical, but the words "free" and "mobile tariffs" don't really combine. Tariffs are generally overpriced and longer contract terms. Some don't even allow you to claim your "free" award until you've passed 3 or 6 months of the term. Just be aware
Iamdeveb - i would have to disagree with you on that one this time, i took out a deal thru dialaphone with a free nintendo wii (guaranteed delivery within 28 days) @ £30 a month on a 12 month deal - (total cost £360) - i got £60.00 cashback thru quidco, £65 cashback to come thru dialaphone - sold the motorola krzr on ebay for £73.03 which means the wii has cost me £161.97!!
And ive got 200 mins and 200sms a month for absolutely zilch! - effectively!0 -

Did you have to chase them for the Wii or was it sent automatically ..... I have been think of doing so for a while now but has been worried whether I will have to chase them up. Its a good deal if everything works as it is meant to .......... ThxBerba0 -

i understand why you're cynical...
but if the phone is free, the wii is free, delivery is free and the tariff is far better than Pay as you go then i dont see an issue
from my limited knowledge dialaphone get commission of £410 if you sign up through them, from t-mobile. Online retailers have less overheads than high street retailers, so online mobile phone dealers can obviously give better deals.
so if they spend less than 50% of their commission on a gift (which arrives within 28days by the way, otherwise they are in breach of their contract) they are obviously going to get more customers than the high street.
next time you're in town go and have a look at a mobile phone shop under the t-mobile flext tariffs and ask the sales assistant if you can have a free wii, you'll be told to 'go forth'... then go online and get the same deal, same phone and same contract... with a free wii..
just common sense, with no con involved whatsoever
FYI.. you can also get a free 19" lcd TV.. free 80gb ipod.. free xbox360 and some are offering free flights to NYC

they have them in stock and wouldnt process your order if they didnt. they wait the 28 days to ensure you keep your phone after your 14 day cooling off period. 28 days is the max and last time i had a new contract (i.e. 12 months ago) i got a free psp delivered after 3 weeks. no chasing involved whatsoeverHating Hastings Direct!0 -

I've only just taken the deal out about 2 weeks ago, but had a text from them yesterday to confirm that the wii is going to be delivered on the 24th Oct. I'm very pleased with their communication so far.
Just looking at their website now and they must be out of stock of wii's themselves. Try giving them a call - you might be able to reserve the deal for when it gets back in stock.0 -
Anyone know of any Wii stock available around Tonbridge in Kent or around the City of London please?
Thanks.0 -
We picked up a Wii at Morrison's in Boroughbridge near York this evening, they've got loads in stock! We'd given up after searching all day and then saw in this forum that lots of Morrisons seems to have them. Rang round a few who had sold out first and then success!
Very Happy!
: D
I've just rang and they are completely out of stock:(:(:(0 -
Morrisons at kirkstall in leeds had loads yesterday.
The standard- 179.00 console and sports pack.
Say they always have stock.0
