Yes this phone is available in the club card exchange so you should be able to use your vouchers to get it.

You need to have exchanged them already though as the exchange has finnished ...and then use them up by tonight

IME the battery is just fine unless you are new to smartphones so unaware of the need to charge up more than with non-smartphones. There are also many free apps to help minimise battery use. I personally use Easy Battery but that's not saying it's the best. Works for me.

hi
thought I'd jump on to tihs deal, I've had conflicting answers from tesco stores:

but I this is where I think it stands today
the £15 off mobiles in tescos on a £30 min spend in store groceries now does not incoude the Huawei ascend G300, as one of the phones offered in this deal: that's according to Tesco customer services, this offer of £15 off runds until 30/9

There is another offer of no minimum spend , running from 9/9/12 to 16/9/12, the huawei g300 is £80, reduced from £100, thats the deal, the £15 vouchers do not apply to this handset. Other guff on tihs phone: no more than 2 handsets per customer, blah blah


This phone is not available online its a instore offer only.
CS werent exactly clear, but thats the latest I have got on this.

If anyone has any more up to date news , please share.
all in all, lack of communication between cs and stores, I think that offer of getting it for £65 is over, at least for the moment......

Dunno about the store you are using but they are sooo wrong

In my local store the G300 has official Tesco sticker on it:

"£80 or £65 with £30 groceries" actually stuck on the phones

I think your store is just guessing - and guessing wrong - or try another store - or run it through self-serve check out and bail out if it doesn't go thru at £65

Only thing thats over is the glitch that meant you dont need to spend £30 to get the discount (someone bought 2 phones and 2 cans coke for £131 ish) - recent feedback suggests its no longer glitched so you have to spend £30 to get the disc

Quentin

You can still get it from isme for around £69 +£4 delivery (£6 cashback too via tcb = £67).

Use code 293GV (£30 off £99 price)

(Expires 30/9/12.)

i dont mind spending the £30 - after all we need our weekly foodshop and though I prefer other supermarkets I could put up with tesco.
But I was told this by 2 different CS advisors asI was ringing around trying to find out if any store had the phone and asking how much it was.

I'm just trying to avoid a wasted trip to the store that actually has it in stock- not that near to me. they were reserving it for me until store closes tonight- didnt make it though so may try tomorrow.

When I rang the store I said I didnt want to pay the £80, due to being on a tight budget etc, and they said they scanned it and it wasnt showing up in the £15 off deal
So then rang CS again, they confirmed the deal on that phone was now "no other purchase necessary", "shelf ticket price includes reduction" new price is £80, reduced from £100, (£20 off original price)
I then got another number for tesco CS online, thry told me £80 deal , but said it was reduced from £110, so even better off than the £15 voucher deal! ( I kid you not)
I pointed out that the reduced to £80 from £110 wasnot actually better than getting the phoen for £65 in the £15, didnt really g o down that well


Confused, yep



Incidentally do you mind telling me which store still has the yellow sticker on it? thanks

I am totally new to smartphones. This is my first one & I think that's why I'm getting frustrated with it.

Has anyone tried to download CWM Recovery Installer?

I always use my mobile as wake up alarm and charge it overnight every night and lasts all day
