cpw/e2save/OSPS cashback contracts

hi,

does anyone know if there is a maximum number of cashback contracts that you can get with these retailers?

ie: is there a limit of only one/two cashback contracts that you cna have with them?

i want to get a contract for my sis as her birthday present this year, but i cannot see any mention of the TC online?

    All you can do is try and see if you are successful.

    From time to time they do quote a limit per customer, though it is not always enforced.

    Doubt it if you are getting the contract from cpw.

    First port it to another network.

    Then when the port is completed, port it again back to o2.

    Sometimes the network will decline apps.
    I tried to get two phones on the same contract (e2save & O2) and O2 blocked one.
    I had to apply again in my wife's name.

    I've always avoided porting a number as I think that increases the risk of them
    not paying out!

    One in one month; two in three; three in six; four in 12. Only one on Virgin. Subject to network acceptance/mix. But sometimes I get lucky!

    Ok..I managed to get a phone from OSPS.

    Spoke to a really polite guy (which is a change as, i made 4 calls to them and spoke to 4 different people..who gave me an impression that they couldnt care less) who processed everything for me and told me that everything has gone thru fine :D

    last question: does anyone knoe if its really a new policy of OSPS to charge £8 for administration?

    i was told i will be charged £8 for admin, and be sent a virgin PAYG sim for free, but it will appear on my bill as:

    Admin: £ 5
    Virgin PAYG sim: £ 3
    total: £ 8
    the guy said that the £3 for the sim is really part of the £8 i should pay for the admin charge???

    Does this sound right?

    I think if you process an order online there's no charge, but if you speak to a CS/Sales person they charge an admin/del fee. Last year I was charged del of £3.99 for a contract offer that you could only have by phoning CS. I complained and got it refunded as I was not told on the phone that I would be charged it.
