hi guys

Ideally i'd like the new prada phone on contract but ive seen cashback deals on e2save.com where you can get line rental for as little as £5 per month on clearance phones although you do have to claim money back, you get free phone. So i was thinking of getting this and selling the free phone plus my old one and buy a prada on ebay. Is this the best way do you think? ive seen a prada free on contract that is £30 a month which would be so much easier.

Also im on o2 pay as you go and want to keep my number is it a problem to port over to o2 contract?

Also which is best network? tempted by orange because of free cinema tickets but i dont mind which i go on.

Thanks Laura

    The phones and line rental are greatly discounted for a reason - the phone isn't worth much and you aren't likely to get a lot for it.

    I'd go for the Prada for £30 a month rather than buy one from ebay; for starters you'll get a 12 month warranty, you know that the phone's legit (not reported lost or stolen) and you'll get a full 12 month warranty.. I for one would not use ebay to buy phones because I'd have no idea where the seller bought the phone from or how it was obtained. Call me sceptical, but I like to be on the safe side of (most) things :p

    In terms of "perks" I'd personally recommend Orange because as well as 2 for 1 cinema tickets, you also get magic numbers if you go on an 18 month contract, where you can nominate up to 3 Orange numbers and calls to these won't be included in your monthly allowance. Great if someone you phone a lot is on Orange :) As far as coverage goes, it depends on where you live. No network has 100% coverage in the UK so it's best to check if you'll get signal where you live before you sign on the dotted line.
