    the flash sale price on vodafone network only includes 250mb of data per month - thats not a lot for an iphone's needs.

    An 8GB iPhone isn't worth the money either. It'll be 5/6GB usable only after iOS8 takes up more space than iOS7 did.

    It looks to be the 32GB version in yellow for £18.50/month.

    I didn't think anyone wanted the iPhone 5c. iPhone enthusiasts would go for the iPhone 6 or 6 Plus....and if they aren't bothered if it's an iPhone there is much better value with Android phones.

    I don't think people will be taking this up in large numbers...but let me be proven wrong. It's on Vodaphone with 300 minutes, unlimited texts and 250MB data per month no upfront cost saving £100 over the previous price.
    :footie:
    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    Not too bad then. I'd urge buyers to beware though, as the 16GB and 32GB versions were discontinued by Apple some months back, so the only larger versions still around will be the ones that were still left in stock. Explains it being the yellow in this case, as if I recall correctly, that was the least popular colour variant.

    Warranty only begins on activation so it's not really an issue. Some phones (like the Galaxy S4 still being sold) can have sat in a warehouse for a year before being sold. It has very little effect on the phone or even on the battery.

    Not in terms of warranty, in terms of the possibility of someone ending up with an 8GB phone, which isn't expandable via memory card.

    Sorry, should have made that clearer.
