I'm thinking of getting a contract phone from them using cashback payments but I have no idea how stable the company is.

On that theme, is there any way to get one's money back if a company such as this goes bust? (credit card paying, industry backup etc.)

Any help welcome

    I'm also thinking of using them but am wary of the cashback failing - their domain name has been registered for less than 12 months.

    They claim to be affiliated with 4u: 'We joined forces with 4U ltd back in 2003 to bring you service, quality and pricing that until then had been impossible.', and to be part of Caudwell Communications: 'Cool New Mobile are trading partners of Caudwell Communications, the £2 billion turnover mobile and fixed line telephony group, established since 1987. Caudwell employs over 5,000 staff worldwide and has serviced the mobile and fixed line needs of literally millions of customers. With such a pedigree you can be assured of a high quality and totally secure service.'
