    That sounds like a really good deal. How did you manage to get that deal? Did you have high mobile bills recently? My contract is up soon so I am looking at gettting a similar deal in terms of minutes and texts.
  • Have just been offered a Blackberry Bold with 600 mins, unlimited text, unlimited internet and the Blackberry add-on (which is £10 a month) on a 12 month contract for £45 a month.

    Is that a good deal?

    Probobly the same tariff at 30/35/40, depending on if you go over your payments at all.

    Vodafone Passport covers most european countries. Say for example you went to Spain you could call back to the UK (Landline/Mobile) for upto 1 hour and only pay a 75 pence connection charge.

    I.e. Connection to the UK = 75p.. no charge upto an hour.

    Thank you for this. I don't even really know what I like about this Omnia as I got the vodafone magazine from instore and I looked at the back bit where it compares all the phones and it looks like that G600 that I have now has more than the Omnia. Is this correct? Or is there a better phone than this??
    Thanks Again for your help.

    The Omnia is a Windows Mobile device which has been ripped apart and turned commercial...

    Basically, it's a Business touchscreen PDA which samsung has changed into an "every person" phone.

    I've had it on trial and to be honest, the general functionality of the phone is good but the touchscreen is un-responsive and texting is awful.

    If you want a phone with a billion and 5 additional features and are comfortable with touchscreen.. it's a good phone.

    If you want a phone to be a phone.. it's not.

    Meh call up and find out, you won't get something insanely cheap, tho.. and you may have to put money towards the phone.

    Online New Connections are only offering the N96 free of charge on £45 per month deals on an 18 month contract.

    Side note: received one today, the phone is very, very, very good. However for some reason the memory in the handset showed at 14gb available.. I assume this is due to the software taking up 2 or something.. so i'd ask for a 2GB card to go with it.

    Over the last three months, or even longer, I've been going significantly over my contract limits, causing bills in excess of £55.

    I'm after the C905, on a £30~ contract, with unlimited texts and a fair few minutes. (internet perhaps).

    What chance do I stand?

    Thanks.

    Any views on this one?
