At https://www.greatuniversal.com they are selling the 02 XM for only £99.99. It's available at the 02 shop online for £229.99! On the Great Universal website it says at the bottom the price Was £199.99, Now £179.99, Save £20. But at the side and when you add it to your basket it says £99.99. I've not bought one of these myself so I'm not sure weather it's a type error but i have taken it all the way to the checkout and it was still 99.99

  • I think the same phone is on Argos at £129.95 plus delivery.

    So, £199 would be a bit steep but still Great Universal does look like a good deal.

    even better deal if you are a first time customer as you get 20% off your first order - making it around £80 instead

    How do you get the discount, do you mean cash back?
    Kind Regards

    just placed an order couldnt find the 20% off code it says if it sent a catalogue it would be on the order form so i have tried the gift code instead of £15 off, probably wont get it at that price but worth a try:beer:

    Off topic i know, but ..
    legally they should give it to you for £99.99, as advertised.
    I know you've got a low post count (so probably new to the forums), but just because an online retailer advertises something at a said price, they do not need to honour it, (whsmiths dvd's (futurama boxset rings a bell), among many other mis-prices i'm sure others could remember if needed).

    Nice spot though, i'm looking for a new mobile this week actually, might tempt me!

    The 20% off comes off your account automatically if its your first order - i think you need to apply for a credit account though - its advertised on their home page

    You get 4% cashback if you go through quidco . Not a lot but every little helps.
    If you always do what you've always done...
    you'll always get what you've always gotten
  • If you do a general search for mobile phones it shows at £99...so I guess it's right.
