I was just looking at the website, and I think you only get 36,000 points if you sign up for the more expensive tariffs c. £40 - 50 a month.

I think for the tariff listed above the points range is between 9,000 and 17,000 depending on whether you go for a 12 or 18 month contract - or am I missing something?

Definately get the 36000 points on the deal I mentioned. I don't spend a huge amount at boots normally, but with a new born baby I can see £120 of free nappies coming my way (And I'll wait until they are on 2 x £16 and get a load in one go)

What to do with your points;

Could always buy a digital camera, or other electrical goods, or expensive perfume etc and sell on Ebay.

Or Christmas presents for 2006.

Thats my plan

I've just been looking around for a new contract phone. In fact, I'm gonna have to send back one that is due to arrive on tuesday

I'm going for this offer & then I'll get all my xmas pressies on the 3 for 2 gift sets from boots for xmas 2006.

Thing is, I'm gonna have to makes sure I dont buy anyone smellies this year 'cos thats what they're going to get next year :rolleyes:

i'd love to know this was confirmed as true...is there a number you could give me to call so i can double-check? not that i don't trust you - is just that boyf is on 02 so is only really worth my while if i can phone him...otherwise i can see myself getting bills which are more than £16!!
most annoying thing is he only remewed contract on 02 the other day and i could've got the points. grrrr.

thanks

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

How about Sony Ericcson T290i on O2 Leisure Time Plus on 12 month contract @£20/month = £240 with 36,000 points back?

Just taken up this offer. Best idea i've had in ages! :idea:

Don't need the phone at all, but would have spent the money in boots anyway, so this £120 profit is a nice little earner with free minutes and texts thrown in!!

Bargain :j

daft question i'm sure - does anyone know what times off peak covers on o2 and vodafone. i'm going to go for the deal at boots but not sure which network etc...
cheers

off-peak is usually 7pm-7am but check. think its the same on all networks!

ive ordered the samsung and got an e-mail saying that its on back order due to manufacturers delay and should be with me within 7 days ... lets hope so

Brilliant deal.

Does anyone have any tips for selling mobiles on eBay? I don't know whether my new phone will be locked to O2, and if so whether it's worth paying to unlock it.

I like the sound of the deal but im wondering can u buy one for the missus and one for myself as we both have mobiles in desperate need of upgrading ????
