hi,
i am about to place an order for a new contract (online).
is it best to purchase it on credit card or debit card?
i would be doing a direct debit as requested by network.
thanks,

It doesn't make any difference, assuming the purchase price is under £100.
If it *is* over £100, then credit card is better as you are protected if the handset is duff and the supplier fails to replace it.
The sale of the handset and the network service contract are separate and hence buying the phone by card doesn't help in the event of any problems with the service.0 -
thanks for reply MarkyMarkD,
the handset is £0.00 as its free on higher tariff.
i am just asking whats best in order of giving my payment details.
thanks,0
