Boots mobile phones - £72 Free advantage points

sproo

Hi rattla,
Can you tell me how you worked out the prices for :

Sagem MYX5-2 on T-Mobile Relax 100 tariff (100 cross network anytime minutes, free voicemail 10p calls at all time, 25p to other networks) cost £276, get £360 points :
(£84 "profit")

as it costs £21 per month for 18 months with 6 months 1/2 price rental. I work this out to be in total £315 giving £45 profit but not £84. probably me being silly!

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of the larger branches stock Ipods and digital cameras for which you can redeem your points. You can phone 08456 090 055 (local rate) and ask them if something you want is in stock at the nearest (large) branch to you.

0845 is NOT local rate,i.e.60p per hour evenings & weekends from a BT landline and considerably more if using a mobile, use 0115 9506111,this,if using BT option1 is 5.5p per hour evenings and weekends and can be free depending on what tarrif you are on.

Call is marked Lo-call and Local Rate on my phone bill (from BT).

Well they are misleading you, look on the home phones board there is plenty of disscussion about these numbers, also check this site, it is related to MSE

Am I right in thinking that you can also earn 4.5% whatever that means if you go via Quidco ? But 4.5% of what? As you don't actually pay anything immediately to Boots- you actually pay monthly to the service provider, is the 4.5% amounting to anything??

Hi, You are actually looking at the wrong tariff. They have an 18 month tariff for £21 a month or a 12 month tariff for £23 a month. The first works out at £378 for 18 months, but the 12 months only totals £276.

Has anyone ordered one of these phones?

When you go through the order process, there is space for a Promotion Code !!! has anyone managed to use a code sucessfully??

I have tried a few boots codes but to no avail !!

I am sooooooo impressed. But has anyone found a tariff with free texts as well as peak free minutes? Wouldn't want too many but I mainly text with the occasional call. And without sounding silly what happens at the end of the minimum contract? Does the rental go sky high or do you cancel and start a new one?

I must admit when I made the original post I was sceptical.


Anyway my Motorola V220 came yesturday - very nice phone.rang to check the conditions and got a bonus because on the site it says 250texts a month and 1000 minutes a month on landline or to other vodaphone uses. Anyway talking to the customer services lady today and she told me the 1000 off peak minutes (6pm to 6am ) was across all networks. WOW

ideal for my daughter whose text mad but extra bonus it being across any network.

I couldnt get any promotional codes to work
