Now on HUKD people are saying they charge £1.50 per month for paper billing, so you need to register with talkmobile and turn that off.

EDIT It says here that's not the case and you have to ask if you DO want paper billing. I haven't had a bill yet so we'll see http://www.talkmobile.co.uk/my-account/paymonthly.html

So, if I understand this right, you have to send in a paper bill if you want to claim the cashback offer. But you have to pay £1.50 pm for the paper bill? Bit cheeky of them.

Can't you just print them off:

I've signed up for this deal last week!
Ordered 11/7 and got the phone 12/7.
But have to wait for the number to be ported to talkmobile, which is today. The Samsung Galaxy Y is not a great phone tho. The screen resolution is poor.

I got a talkmobile cashback deal with mobile.co.uk last july and got all the cheques from them. I normally email the bill in PDF format to mobile.co.uk and received reply within a week. cheques were issued within a month. I even once sent in the bill one month early and they rejected the claim but I sent in the following month and got paid.

I've just called CW to cancel Phone care ( call 02087538111 instead of 0870 number) and managed to cancel TMTI online.

Given that you can pay £7.50 a month for a SIM only contract with these mins etc and if you get the redemption its basically free for both the contract and the phone. No pleasing some folk

It's not a great phone though. The review I saw suggested that it was designed for kids. That's fine for a young person with delicate fingers, but for an old person like me with podgy fingers I need something a big bigger and easier to use.

If you want a better phone than the galaxy Y then choose a better phone. There's not as much back in redemptions though, but it's still a good deal.

Like I said before, maybe best to go for the Y due to the better redemption, recycle it for £32 and buy the Huawei G300 for £100 (easily the best £100 android on the market, check out the reviews). Including the additional cost of the phone (£68) over the 24 months, the redemption and Quidco/TCB cashback the whole deal works out at just £2.20/mth. An absolute bargain.

I bet there is something in the T&Cs which stop them accepting print-outs. Probably won't have the tariff name on or something silly.

Maybe you should read them before making wrong assumptions.
