    I dont think they will take it back as it was done instore but i do know phones 4u will tell you anything to get a sale, they tried to sell me a contract for a samsung soul when i was looking for a n95 8gb and offered me 18 months on a £35 tariff and £50 automatic cashback saying that was the best offer i would get even online and i would be mad to pass it up yet on thier website i think the cashback was £175 plus you could go via quidco and get another £60 so always best to do your homework before buying from phones 4u.
    The more i save the more i can spend:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    If you buy online you're covered by 14 day distance selling regulations so you will be allowed to return a contract, but if you buy from a shop I'm not sure what the policies are on returns

    You usually have a couple weeks to change your mind don't you? Check it out, and if so take it back then buy from the internet :)
    Just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you are a mistake.
  • Why didn't you check the Web shop first?

    I would take it back and tell them that you want them to match what they themselves are offering on their website.
