    Do you have a link for the order tracking page on CPW?

    Thanks

    Has anyone any experience of using Redten Internet it seems they have a free laptop with unlimited internet for £17.99..........i tried to get the aol one because i am out of contract now but in my area it is £29.99 so alot more and a two year contract.....any feedback on redten would be much appreciated as i am seriously considering changing from aol to them thanks:confused: (just read t and c looks like its a 3 year contract) not so keen now..


    Hi, I looked into this abit and the issue I had with it is that the comp or laptop only legally belongs to you after the 3 year period. Essentially you are taking out a credit agreement with another company then paying it back over the 3 years. I'm fairly certain there is a long thread about this company on moneysavers if you do a search.

    You do know that the router remains AOL's property until the contract ends, right? If you break the contract in any way, they'll want everything back (including the laptop).
