Changing you rmind

Hey guys,

Did a quick search for 'cancel' but a million posts came to mind.

I've just returned from Phones4u, and if i'm honest it was a really good experience, usually I'd avoid them like the plague, however a friend recommended 1 store in particular where the staff were less pushy than usual.

I was looking for a different contract as the upgrade costs offered by Tmobile were ridiculous.

The guy who served me was running through the tarrifs, checking my useage etc, and there was one tarrif in particular that looked pretty good on Vodafone, unfortunately I failed the credit check - god knows why!

The only other tarrif available was a Tmobile tarrif similar to the Tmobile one am on now, but with £100 cashback, which works out cheaper in the long term... So I signed up for this, spanking new phone, and off I travel.

However, 500 yards down the road, a new tmobile store has opened, and the tarrif price is the same (Flext35), no cashback, but free evening and weekend calls...

Now I feel I may have jumped the gun too soon, whilst i'm not overly disappointed with my new deal, I cant help wondering whether those evening and weekend calls might be useful for free...

Is there any way I can just go back to Phones4u and say I've changed my mind... I thought there was a cooling off period though not sure it applies in this case

Go straight back and make sure the shop is full before you go in and ask to "change your mind". Practice saying this in a louder than normal voice.

Next time buy off the net - you definitely get a cooling off period, and use a cashback site for a bonus.

I get yer point, though if the £100 cashback comes through then it'll be more than what quidco was offering... working out the figures the deal doesn't break down too bad anyway, I wasn't using the full allowance each month so the cashback will offset some of the monthly charge, plus the phone's pretty nifty too....
