Guest paddy_mcnulty Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I've been checking the t-mobile website but I can't find any mention of the Vario anywhere, just the Compact. I'm right in thinking that the Vario has the keyboard??? Is it not available anymore? and anyone know of any plans to release the version with Wi-Fi soon (or does the Vario have that? I can't rememeber...) I'm think of changing to T-mobile from Orange and want ot get the best phone I can. Also, I've noticed that people have been talking about T-mobile customer service and the cost of it. I've just been looking at Relax 35 + web'n'walk for c. ?32 pm (with 25% for life discount) and it says customer service calls are free (see attachment). Is this true? If so I'm off from Orange asap!

Guest travisb Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 It's out of stock online or via tele sales. Placed my order on 31st March, and still no joy. Sent another e-mail yesterday, as listening to the tune they play whilst you're on hold would drive anyone to suicide after too long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest redvers Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 The old Web n Walk plans had an option to save ?2 or ?3 a month and pay for calls to customer services, called self-serve. That is no longer an option! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sporkguy Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 I got an email from them yesterday, Dear Sir, We are expecting the delivery by next week but we can not gurantee availability. Kind regards T-Mobile Websales Some stores have them in stock I think, especially big-city stores. They'd better get some in soon or I may be opting for an SP5 on o2!

Guest travisb Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Mine arrived at home yesterday 2pm. No e-mail from T-Mob though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest petencl Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 No e-mail from T-Mob though! I get the impression they're a bit overwhelmed at the moment! No wonder, according to this article in MobileToday, Flext has taken 50% of sales in the non-direct retail channel. Pretty damn impressive if you ask me.

Guest travisb Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Actually their message was caught up by our corporate e-mail filter. When I released it, all I got was a blank message with the T-Mob logo, which was nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sat there like a prune expecting the rest of the email to download from the html source! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Just found a Vario in T-Mobile Gloucester! The very nice staff let me play with it for a while knowing full well I wasn't ready to switch provider yet. They were keen to know all about Mobiholics and Modaco too, with all the interest being shown in their services. Nice people :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be returning - and we won't be seeing the Vario II until June earliest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I asked the shop folk about the Vario II - no news on it at all and they weren't aware it had been let loose in Germany either. As usual - the forums seem to 'know' more than the retail outlets ever do. My contract doesn't run out til Jan 07 so I'm in no rush (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
