Anyone got a cashback deal from Phones4u online?

I was wondering how reliable phones 4 u are at paying up cashback, I've read that a lot of people have had problems with cashback deals and wanted to know peoples personal experience of phones 4 u

This is because I have just seen online Samsung G600 Clearance 10 months free on 12 month contract on Vodafone 40 plan. Total cost £80.00 for year. Quidco give you £60 so thats a mere £20 for the year, clearance phone or not sounds like a bargain to me!

    You can get the G600 for 12 months free on M2YD who are part of Phones4u

    Just read the threads on this site and hotukdeals before you decide to take up the offer.

    I have a contract with M2YD but have not had to claim yet, although I did get my Quidco cash quickly.

    I would recommend Phones4u, I am 3/4 way into 12 month contract and have had first 3 cashback claims with no hassles, phonecalls , makes a refreshing change. I will definately be looking for another deal with them.

    p4u are the dogs bo!!acks when it comes to cashback deals. Very easy to understand cashback forms and they are quick. My last 2 cashback payments have come within a week of sending the claim off.

    Mr Dunstone and his rabble of $*it at e2save and onestop could learn a thing or two from p4u and mobiles2yourdoor.

    Thank you for replies

    G600 at M2YD appears to be out of stock, but at least it will give me a bit more time to think

    Has anyone had any past dealings with M2YD, good or bad?

    Yes used them last year, I have made 2 claims and not had any problems similar to what the $"it bags at e2save gave me (automatic cashback was a month late and claimed they did not receive last cashback claim).

    Yes, I am 7 months (and 2 x £ 96.25 cashback claims) into an Orange contract with them. No problems whatsoever, there's a period of 60 days when each claim can be submitted, and so far the cashback cheques have taken only a week. Much much better than the online cashback deals we've had from the Carphone Warehouse ...theirs are very tricky, and hard to decipher when and what needs sending in, plus slow to pay out.

    Thanks for the info but your hyperlinks to "this site" and "Hotukdeals" are not working
