    hm, have i missed something on that?
    cuz what it looks like to me is £0.49 per month, for 12 months (ie £5.88 for the whole 1yr contract), for 500 anynetwork anytime mins and 100 txts each month, with a free Motorola C975 AND a free Nokia 1100?

    surely theres a catch or i'm reading it totally wrong?
    i see theres 3 months free insurance which i assume u have to cancel or get automatically billed, but what else?
    anyone delt with these guys before? thoughts?

    While I am hearing some bad reports on 3's phones was tempted by the carphonewarehouse 6680 offer on their front page £9.99 11 months (I suspect this is an 18 month contract).

    I reckon Nokia would be a good phone so if the reception is Ok where I live and work (West Midlands/BLack Country) be worth it. However when I try and open the terms and conditions on the site it shows me a blank window :confused:

    anyone know anything about this or do I have to phone them direct?

    got a mail from them promptly saying cashback is claimed every 3 months, by sending the bill. See below the letter i got (not sure exactly whe nt o send the bill)
    Information on cash back


    The money that is discounted by the network is discounted automatically from
    your bills. All remaining cash back is paid to you by us on redemption
    basis. This involves applications that are sent to us each quarter. The
    first application is to be made at month 3, the remaining applications are
    made after the 6th month bill is paid and then again when the 9th month bill
    is paid and the same again at month 12. Where the offer states that there is
    extra cash to be claimed other than that is placed against the discounted
    line rental, such as an extra £10 on an offer, it will be paid on the last
    application that is made at the end of the contract. The redemption vouchers
    are sent out with the handset (along with a welcome letter).

    Successful applications require that all bills are to be paid in full and by
    direct debit. Include 1 of the vouchers sent to you with your phone for each 3 monthly claim. These should be sent to us by Royal Mail recorded delivery to arrive within 7 days of the relevant bill being paid (and not when the bill is received by the customer). The vouchers should also be accompanied by the original bill for the relevant period

    Having successfully applied for cash back customers will receive a cheque
    for the full amount made out to the account holder and sent to the Three
    billing address within 30 days of the application being received.

    Thank you for your enquiry/order.
