    It was posted in another thread that people had been offered a £2.99 a month contract after their initial 12 months was up from T-mobile, therefore not having to pay commision to shops and get to keep customers.

    Additionally since the network is not paying for a phone and getting paid for the contract upfront thus there being no clawback the deal would be sweeter for the agent thus a better deal for the customer..possibly
    I shouldn't be surprised if the network IS paying for a phone, but the retailer is separating phone and SIM and selling the phones on separately as SIM free - rather lucrative, probably.

    not really having a dig at you . you seem to be so sensitive, just trying to clarify a few of your statements. cannot recall u mentioning 'post' anywhere.
    It's becoming boring to see that actually you are, and couldn't even be bothered to see the word 'post' in the first post. If you're not interested forget it. Yus has put this information here in good faith and a number of people seem to need to pick holes in it.

    It has been possible to get cheap paid ahead or cashback rental deals for 10 years or so, so there is no need to sceptically compare this to one recent company failure.
