    Does the phone come with the credit on it or could I use the credit on my existing Virgin mobile.

    Comes with £1 credit and a further £2 when you register the sim. So you get £13 in total.

    Send this into Tesco's for recycling once you've used the £10 credit, and get £12 worth of Tesco Clubcard points!!!!

    Effectively £12 of points for a £7.95 spend after quidco! Plus £10 free calls thrown in!

    lol....so its a profitable thing? :rotfl: now thats a DEAL! great!!
  • Wow - can't believe that deal. Done the deed and feeling very smug, cheers OP many, many thanks!:j
  • Don't forget you can get £10 back if you trade-in your old (working) mobile. See here:

    So after Quidco & Trade-in, you are technically getting £2.05 to buy this phone ;) !
  • Just ordered mine :) The best deal is to:

    1) buy via Quidco
    2) use the phone credit up
    3) recycle via Tesco Clubcard recycle, receive 300 points that equates to £12 in Deals.

    Money saved £4 plus the free phone calls :)

    I read that if you buy online, the credit comes on the sim that comes with the phone. Somebody else said in another thread that they got a voucher when they bought in a shop.

    I bought a phone online for my daughter recently, and it's irritating that to use the credit you have to swap the sims.

    Don't forget the £5 quidco!! .......

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this: There’s an article on the main site you might like to read that gives more information on this subject.

    i ordered one yesterday and happy to see the £5 quidco has tracked. im thinking of getting another and would i be correct in saying i should still get another £5 back via quidco. not sure if they only pay on one order and not multiple orders

    Indeed you should. I went via Topcashback and that tracked very quickly. Perhaps buy through TCB?

    Also - There are still some 500 point envelopes kicking about (on ebay). I understand 500 (instead of now 300) is honoured. Might be worth it. Personally if CPW will give me £10 that's great (I've got a few old phones to trade).
