    Apart from the one line on the front page, where else does it confirm that the xbox 360 is included ??

    I'm just wondering if it is an error on the homepage...

    This would be an absolutely fanatastic deal if it were to be honoured but I agree with Daniel that this is probably just an error with the picture on the home page.

    If you go to the Pay Monthly page for Orange phones you will see that there are a range of offers with this phone: -
    Sony Ericsson K810i offers


    The 11 months free and the free Xbox 360 offers are listed separately but tthere is no combined offer with both of them. Might be worth a try anyway as if you take 11 months free over the 12 month contract (using Quidco of course) you can make £15 profit even if you don't get the Xbox 360.

    Yearly cost (£35 x 12) £420
    Minus 11 months free -£385
    Minus Quidco cashback -£50 (Quidco is only showing at £50 for me and not £60 as per the OP)

    Total -£15 (i.e. £15 profit)

    Many thanks to the OP but I am going to ponder on this one all day and when I get round to ordering it will be out of stock probably!;)
  • I went for it last night and have copied the page in case they claim foul. Getting any phone so cheap on Orange is pretty hard for reason at the moment. Even without the Xbox I think it's a good deal. Used Phones4U years ago and no worse than other High Street mobile shops. Only problem I had with them was trying to sell me insurance etc through whole contract. Mentally preparing myself for that. ;)

    Thanks for the heads up D e n i s e (even though it's £50 on Quidco as m_will rightly states).

    Its a typo and the IT section are on the case to change it. It should read you get either the 11 months free or an Xbox 360, but still a good deal with Quidco.
  • ive spoke to them this is an error and wont be honoured

    there are t&cs in place to cover as well as there is no mention on the receipt
  • I would never buy anything from a company with such moronic adverts.

    I bought several phones from them - the last one about 15 months ago. They were absolutely hopeless at processing cashbacks. Even recorded delivery doesn't work with them as they simply did not answer. I gave up afetr wasting a few hours.

    wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.
  • I think one reason for paucity of Orange deals is that if you've a contract for £30+ per month you can claim free basic 2Mbps Orange Broadband service on your landline.

    Can vouch that. And also phoneboxdirect which owes me 2 cashbacks!! (I have missed a full stop while completing the cashback form :D ).
