    The information shared on here is very accurate and without too much effort, I've been offered what a lot of people have also been, namely:

    18 month contract
    150 mins
    500 text
    unlimited internet
    Passport

    Choice of the following phones (based on my current one being the SE K850i and I'm not going less that it's 5mp camera)

    SE C902 Red or Black (Would want the C905!)
    Nokia N96
    Samsung Tocco

    There were a couple of others but they were pink and to use they guys own phrase.........didn't think it matched my eyes!!

    I've not made my mind up yet but he's given me his email address and set up the basics on my account, ready for me to decide what I want to do and he then finished by saying.......have a look at the phones you really want and we'll sort it for you.

    Oh and the cost per month - standard price is £24.47 but he'll do it for £12.50 all in.

    Anyone else think this is a fair deal, cause I do!

    A little update on my progress.....

    After a bit of batting backwards and forwards, I'm currently in the final stage of accepting:

    Samsung Tocco Ultra
    150 mins
    500 text
    unlimited internet
    passport
    (think I've asked for some MMS as well!)

    Just waiting on the phone coming into stock and that's it!

    On the back of this, I've asked for the same deal for my wife, who's using £10 a month on an Orange PAYG - was initially refused as this is retentions but pushed the point of being called every other month, telling me that as a "valued" customer who pays on time etc, do I want a second line on the same basis............so have thrown that in and looks like my good lady is getting a SE C902 (Red) for Mothers' Day!

    When you consider they'll do a Sim Only deal of 100 mins and 500 text for £10 a month - feel I'm getting a fair deal, so I'm happy.

    Also, the above has been done via email, so should it "suddenly" go wrong, I've got copies of what has been agreed :j

    I have the Nokia E65 and the SE910i on the one account with Family and friends I am paying £34 pcm for 250 mins and 100 texts 12 month contract. Now these are coming up for renewal. I would be quite happy with the same deal. Couple of new phones, could be same phones but diferent colour!!! Whats the chances folks. Seems very few 12 months contracts now.

    Thats a great deal!

    I'm after the Ultra and when I phoned she said they couldn't give me an idea of any retention deal until they get more info on the phone, and they didn't even know the handset cost yet!

    How long is the contract for? And am I right from reading your previous post that this is £12.50 p/m??

    Thanks =)

    im not sure if this has been covered yet. apologies if it has

    if i sign up to the vodafone sim only deal for 3 or 4 months (and take advantage of quidco giving £30 cash back) and then call to cancel the deal (as you can give 1 months notice at any time) and tell them im cancelling as i need a handset, are they likely to offer me a decent deal or will they just tell me to !!!!!! off?

    18 months - hence the reason to push for the most recently released phone for me (My wife isn't a gadget's person like me!!)
