  • I'm on the orange £25 1000text deal, got a free samsung d600 the week it came out, plus they offered me £100 trade in, but i didnt really want it........

    they're good, but im changing in a couple of months since their coverage doesnt seem great, plus i want to get some picture messages free, and some GPRS if i can..............
  • i'm on 02, paying £25 a month for 1000 xnet offpeak minutes + 100 txts.
    got a free nokia 7370 with it too.

    I got a free (refurb) LG u880 and it works out as FREE for 12 months; its chequeback, yes but you only have to send a certain bill at certain weeks.

    any chance of a link that deal looks good
  • You have to be pretty organised to know which bill is what and make sure you send the bill off (I send by Special delivery now) on time to the company to get your chequeback, so read the T+C's carefully.

    I got mine from https://www.coolnewmobile.com
    Although best place to find mobile deals is https://www.reestitmutton.co.uk
    Also you can normally get decent cashback from https://www.quidco.com so try that :)

  • Is it possible with these packages to keep your current pay as you go phone?
  • I'm on Orange Racoon i think but it's through the Link and so with a chequeback type offer i'll pay £17.50 for the first 15 months then £35 in the last three and i've got a gorgeous Sony Ericsson w810i for free, 500 xnet minutes and 500 texts!! pretty good deal to me.
