Galaxy Note 3
Hello everybody,
I posted this thread to ask if anybody has this phone on contract. I had the original Galaxy Note 1 and absolutely loved it so now when my current contract ends I would like to get a Galaxy Note 3.
May I ask on average what you guys are paying for this phone and what tariff you are getting? Ideally I would like the phone with:
500+ Minutes
Unlimited Texts
Unlimited Internet
About £20 per month.
My father has been with 3 for over 7 years now, and I for about 2 years. His contract doesn't end soon but could he get a decent retention deal if he says I have a Three contract too? I know it won't exactly be retentions as he still has a while to go on his current contract.
I look forward to your replies! :money:

That's a pretty good monthly tariff without a phone. You'll probably need to pay closer to £40 a month or buy the phone upfront.0

Aah
So there is no way I'll get a tariff like that with that phone? Do you think it is worth a try having my dad ask for a deal as he has been with them for 7 years now.0 -
No harm in asking but there can't be any profit in it for them at £20 a month. The Note 3 is pretty expensive on it's own.0

I bought my Note 3 Nov 2013 for £550 PAYG. i top up £15 on 3. I dont think you will get Note 3 for £20 a month. but no harm in asking

I have just been looking at note 3 deals today as my phone is about to die. I use giff gaff currently though cause o2 is the best network for where I live. I noticed giff gaff are doing it for 20 a month plus goody bag. So it probably depends how much interenet you really use but I am on their 7.50 goody bag normally so that looks like a good deal to me.
I am still trying to decide which phone to get though as I have an old htc but the note 3 does look good to me.[STRIKE]Original Mortgage 07/07 £160000 LTV 100% [/STRIKE]Remortgaged 10/13 £118000 LTV 84%

I shall try, on HUKD the phone by itself has gone down to around £399 so hopefully I get a decent deal.I have just been looking at note 3 deals today as my phone is about to die.

Hey, yep the Galaxy Note 3 looks fantastic! On GiffGaff however, to get the tariff I want I'd have to pay 35 per month!0 -

Note 4 due in the summer .
Samsung Numero Uno, J.K. Shin. Speaking to Kbench, Chen confirmed there would indeed be a new Note this summer – “of course, in the fall, [there will be] a new model Galaxy Note. This will come out.”0 -

HI Yeah that seemed good to me as it is 20 a month plus the 7.50 for a goody bag and you can always change the goody bag as needed over the next 24 months rather than being tied to one.
Oh I just saw that is with 9.7% apr as well though, hmm I assumed it was 0%. Maybe I'll just buy one from ebay instead then.[STRIKE]Original Mortgage 07/07 £160000 LTV 100% [/STRIKE]Remortgaged 10/13 £118000 LTV 84%
