Cheap but chic?

ellas9602

I need to buy a phone for DD16 TODAY. It has to be pretty cool but cheap as poss(I'm thinking sony ericson). I'm thinking about PAY&GO but would consider a contract at the right price (& without all the chequeback stuff-I can't be trusted)
Are there any good offers out there today? - I also use quidco....

Thanks for reading

Thanks Alan:beer:
I didn't want to pay that much to be honest!
I've just been looking at a chequeback offer...How hard are they?
I was looking at CPW Sony E W200 something or other. It's 5.99 a month and I get £60 cash back through quidco, effectively making the total cost about £11??? Have I got that right??
Thanks so much for reading, I'm rubbish at stuff like this

I have never used a chequeback offer so I couldn't comment, sorry. I also couldn't find the offer on the CPW site.

What is your upper limit for a PAYG

how does the free one work bargainhunter?

the w200i doesn't seem like a very nice handset, especially for a girl. the 0.3mp camera is shocking!

this samsung might be nice for a girl thought the w200 has a far better spec

There is a way of getting a £20 discount on orange PAGY mobiles that has been posted on the site before

Thanks chaps
she had one of the white sony ones but 'lost it' it cost us around £200 so Im not going out of my way to make sure she has an all singing all dancing one.
It's her birthday tomorrow but she's already had main prezzie (festival tickets last month) so this is an extra.
I LOVE that samsung one, but she's not very girlie!
At the moment shes using a battered old borrowed one from a friend. If the sony one would truly just cost £11 without much hassle I think I'd be happy with that.
are there any catches with the chequeback thing, quidco and have I got it right that £11ish would be the total?
(and yes...My stepdaughter is spoilt rotten..by her father ::mad: )

If you want something very basic but looks quite good you could look at this from woolworths

Under £15 not online but you could check your local store
