    Just had my call from retentions, my deal is:

    Nokia Lumia
    300 mins
    Unlimited texts
    500mb data
    100 picture messages
    24 month contract

    £20.50 a month.

    Possibly could have got more if I haggled but I'll never go over those figures so £20 sounds fair to me :)

    Hi...

    Its odd, but as we upgrade at the same time we tend to bump into one another on here, anyways...

    Just to let you know about the Sensation XL.

    From the reviews I've read, its a great phone apart from the screen, sure its big, but the resolution/clarity is disappointing apparently, which is a shame, 'cos the other specs are impressive. Just letting you know.

    The following site is the best for independent reviews and customer feedback IMO - http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/ .

    Just found this Sensation XE deal on Vodafone via Dial a Phone - http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/phone/HTC_Sensation_XE_with_Beats_Audio%E2%84%A2/search.aspx?product=HTC_Sensation_XE_with_Beats_Audio™ - some good offers there !!!!

    HTH,

    M.

    Yeah same time every 18 months or so

    Thanks for the links. Its either XL or XE just deciding

    I assume you know that you can root a standard Sensation and boost the processor to 1.5gig, that's all the XE is, a rooted standard Sensation with posh head phones.

    Im also considering the Samsung Galaxy S2 now, it's on par with the Sensation, and slightly cheaper I think. I saw one, and the HTC, in a shop....the build quality seems OK, but not as sturdy or tactile as the HTC, though once you put it in a case it would be fine.

    Hello,

    I have recently been contacted by the Vodafone loyalty team who offered me a 2nd line in addition to my existing contract. I have been with Vodafone for over 4 years and am considering taking out the 2nd contract. I have been offered a discounted contract – normally £26.00 discounted to £20.50 and the Galaxy S II free of charge. I would like to go for it but as it is my 2nd contract I would not like to go over £18.00. There are a few deals out there which offer £17-£18 deals (can be found via MSE). I only need 300 ish minutes, 600txts and 500gb data.

    Can you please let me know if you can come up with such deal?

    Thank you

    That's a very good price IMO, and the Galaxy S2 is a good handset... is it an 18 or 24 month contract???, if it's 18 bite there arm off.

    Definitely need to hold out. You can get slightly fewer minutes (250), but with unlim txts and unlim data with no contract for £10 on a Giff Gaff sim.

    Just had another call now up to

    bt openzone wifi

    £10.25 per month inc vat

    Seems like a better deal than the GiffGaff £10 box , 250 mins, unltd texts and unltd internet, apart from 12 month contract...........

    Having read some of the Voda complaints it seems i should get this in writing first!!!!
