best free min contract deal needed urgently

ritchie

Hi I need to buy a contract phone with as min xcross network mins as free. Not a large phone but something small and easy to use with a camera. I heard three network do some offers.

Anyone suggest any good offers around? Is it best to buy from website or phone and negiotate a deal?

Hi Ritchie,

I've just been looking for the same thing, and think I've found it on https://www.carphonewarehouse.com. It's the Nokia 6630 free on a choice of two tariffs with 3, both of which are 3's Talk and Text 600 package (500 anytime Xnet mins, + 100 texts.)

1st tariff) £9.99 for 12 months (12 month contract)
2nd tariff) £2.99 for 12months, then £30 for 6 months (an 18 month contract)

I'm choosing the 12 month contract because it actually works out cheaper. Only thing is, I'm a 3 customer already, at the end of my first contract, and I'm going to have to sign up as a new customer to get the deal. This means my mobile no. will have to change; not a problem for those on other networks.

From experience, and as a lot of people have noted, 3 is a rubbish network for coverage (my calls have often cut off for no reason); plus my LG handset died twice already this year. However, this tariff is way better than any other I've seen, so I'm going for 3 again.

Fingers crossed,

S :A

there is a way you can keep your number by porting over to another payg network (virgin i think is best) then port it back over in a week or so. if you serch for this it is in this site somewhere

Tariff: 3 Talk and Text 600

Superb offer - Nokia 6630 with 11 months FREE - clearance stock

Sign up online and you get an extra £10 cashback. I also linked through Quidco and get a further £15 back - so this deal should cost me £5 for 12 months 500 mins per month plus 100 texts per month with a phone that seems to be selling for arounf £120 - £200 on ebay.

You can also change the tariff after 6 months to a lower priced one (they go as low as £15 per month) in this way you can actually make up to £85 in the year if my sums are correct !!


Got mine yesterday and it is a great phone

The LG8020 works out only £2.99 a month with cash back from E2save not the smallest of phones but well worth the money with 500 min and 100 texts

Offer has closed on that tariff, and they have started sending out used phones as new without the bluetooth handsfree on the 9 month free and free bluetooth offer they gave me
