Dial-a-Phone are offering a Free Mobile Phone and 12 months free line rental on 3's Network.
The Line Rental is paid by cashback every 3 months to you by Dial-a-Phone.
The phone I was offered was a Motorola C975, but a friend who i recommended for the same deal was contacted and offered a Siemens.
Many companies are offering similar deals these days (e.g. line rental via cashback) but rarley do they offer 100% line rental cashback and a FREE phone to go with it.
The trick. (you need to be a Money Saving Expert)
They hope you stay on for longer than the minimal term contract (in this case 12 months). JUST CANCEL AFTER 12 MONTHS
They hope that you might make additional calls after using up your free allowance. JUST USE UP YOUR FREE ALLOWANCE
THE DEAL
FREE Motorola C975 or similar
FREE Connection with : 3
Price Plan:
Talk & Text 600 (500mins anytime xnetwork, 100 texts)
Monthly Line Rental £30 (paid back via cashback)
No Rollover minutes
Call charges after inclusive allowance are 10p per min to landlines, 5p min to other 3 users, and 25p per min to other networks. Text Messages are 10p each.
They also sent me a FREE Digital Clock & a FREE Universal Phone Holder (for the car).
HOW THE CASHBACK WORKS
The first 3 months half price line rental will be credited to your 3 account. (£45).
The other £315 is claimed by £45 redemption after 3 months, a further £90 redemption after 6 months, £90 redemption after 9 months and a final redemption of £90 after month 12.
Cashback is redeemed by sending your latest bill via post (i.e. bill 3, 6, 9 or 12) to Dial a phones redemption centre.
YOU NEED TO OWN A CREDIT CARD TO OBTAIN THIS OFFER
***Edited to remove referral code, sorry to MSE users who have used this unwittingly because of my failure to read the post properly. All referral posts MUST be placed on the Referral Board, thank you Board Guide***
I forgot to mention they also provide FREE DELIVERY, unless you have it delivered on the weekend like ME, which cost an extra £5.
SO it has cost me £5 for 2 Motorola C975's (I got one for the misses), with 500 mins to use every month, anytime, on any network and 100 free texts every month for a WHOLE YEAR.
THATS WHAT I CALL A DEAL YOU CANT REFUSE...
The only way I can loose is if DIAL-A-PHONE goes bankrupt, which means i cant get my cashback.
So i did some reserch and Dial-a-phone is britains largest home delivery mobile phone supplier and has been going for 8 years plus.
No chance of them going bust within the next year i put my mortgage on it !

Sarah,
Thanks for that.
One point though, 0808x numbers are classed as freephone (not local rate) from landlines.0 -
Are you sure it's only a 12 month contract you sign up to?
On their web page they have the offer of free Nokia 6630 and 12 months free line rental.
But you are signing up to an 18 month contract with 3 - That means 6 months at £30 = £1800 -
sorry 0808 will be charged as a local rate from your mobile, FREE from a landline.
jferguson, this offer is for 12 months minimum, cancel anytime after that !
Dial-a-phone will confirm everything over the phone and you get to check your paperwork when it arrives, (only open sim card and phone box if happy with conditions) if your not happy for any other reason, send it back without opening the sim card or phone box.
Ive checkead all the paperwork and theres nothing hidden.
Also not mentioned above, Free insurance for 3 months £5.99 after that, (this can be cancelled at any time!)
I think ive covered everything.It doesnt cost anything to smile, yet when it occurs its priceless.0 -
no way to do this without a credit card?Waddle you do eh?0

A lot of companies now use credit/debit cards just to do a credit check on you. Most will not use them though and they will probably take the money via direct debit but check this with them.ricflairandy wrote:no way to do this without a credit card?
Be aware though, that should you fall behind with monthly payments (due to problems with DD or another reason) then they may make a withdrawal from your credit/debit card. I say may as it depends on the company and what is in their t&c.0 -
You can get the NEC e338 On Talk & Text 600 (3 Network) - 12 Month Term Costs Just £26 at Dial-a-Phone. That's £2.99 a month line rental and £10 online cashback from them.
You can get another £7 cashback on top of that however if you go through Linemypocket:

Otherwise to go to Dialaphone just paste the link below:

FREE Motorola C975 and 12 MONTHS FRE LINE RENTAL

but the text messages are only for 6 months. £6 per month for remaining 6 months.
and unfortunatley their website says the offer ends 14 June 2005 (tommorrow!)It doesnt cost anything to smile, yet when it occurs its priceless.0 -
Offer sound excellent. Anyone know if you can get a phone with Bluetooth for a similar deal (no bothered about camera etc.).It is not MY fault that I never learned to accept responsibility!0

This deal is not really something special - dialaphone had a better deal on their website for around 2 months -
£1.99 for 12 months but being able to order online means an extra £10 plus £40 from https://www.dialaphone.co.uk/theworks, plus you got free video package on that deal0 -
