Best cashback service ... e2save or thephonespot??? Also, clearance or not ???
Right, i think that I've narrowed it down to getting my phone between these two ... but my next decision is whether I should go for e2save or thephonespot...
Both are part of the CPW, so I should imagine they will both be pretty good. But with the phonespot, they are offering more back from quidco, so am tempted to go with them. The offers for the phone I'm looking for are both exactly the same. So it's a case of which offers better cashback terms, and who pays up better?
e2save is a big name, but I hadn't heard of the phonespot until I'd done a search in google for the phone.
I'd imagine that as long as I followed the contract to the dot, then there should be no problem. But I'd like people's opinions on this please...
Also, the other thing that I was wondering, is whether to go for a clearance phone, or not? With the clearance phone, I get a lot better deal (an extra 3 months half price), but then is it worth the risk not getting everything with the phone? The phone I'm after was the Nokia N73, so if anyone has any experience, then I'd appreciate that
And finally, I live in Leics, and there is an E2Save outlet in Loughborough, which I have seen while drive past it. So I was wondering if that was where the cashbacks were sent? Or whether they were sent elsewhere? As I was thinking that at least I would be able to deliver the cashback in person, and ensure that they could sign to say it was received etc... But is that just a sales department?
Any further info would be great
Thanks a lot.

never heard of thephonespot, would suggest stay clear, e2save has a good and long standing reputation with the backing of cpw so its less likely to go bust.ummm...0

as I said, thephonespot is part of the CPW too ...0

Now to decide whether clearance or not???0 -
Can anyone give me any pointers on this one? Anyone had a clearance phone from e2save, cpw or phonespot? What was it like? Did it come with everything?
Cheers
I got a clearence E900 from e2save, virtually brand new when I opened it up with everything in tact. Just got my first cashback aswell - no problems.0 -
I always get clearance phones as its the best deal around and it had everything included. Had 2 of these deals from e2save and one order on the way.0

i prefer the phone spots ts &cs cos it says that u need to submit ur bills for cashback within 45 days rather than 30 days.
I had a problem when i didnt recieve one of my phone bils so had to wait for a reprint. the extra time meant that i could still claim the cashback.
Also they take copies of bills...dunno if e2save take copies...but all other companies ive had cashback contracts with only take originals.0 -
e2save take copies.0
