Guest john.-h Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 hi guys, it seems everyone is getting different deals when upgrading to the m3100, so i thought it might be a good idea for everyone to let us know what they have got on their upgrade.

Guest fox5150 Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Unfortunately, I was previously a very low user and so had to pay a bit for the phone, but my deal was amazing: Panther 45 (18 month contract) - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jimbouk Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Orange Direct is on 0800 079 0169 Video Calling Promo is 60 mins video per month (I think for three months).

Thanks for the info about Video Calling Promo. 100% about the 2000 extra minutes (not a typo!). That was one of the many deals that retentions were able to offer me when I phoned up to order the M3100. We worked through several deals starting at about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NikLP Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 The only thing the chap said about it was that the extra 2000 minutes will stop at the end of the 18 month contract - they're not for the life of the contract. Doesn't the contract end at the end of the 18 months anyway? If you renew isn't that a new contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Saif Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 something doesn't sound right there... 2k free minutes??? wow... I've gone for Panther 55 giving me 1400 mins 250 texts etc for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jimbouk Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Are these offpeak minutes or something? I used to have 1000 free evening and weekend minutes on my previous contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fox5150 Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Are these offpeak minutes or something? I used to have 1000 free evening and weekend minutes on my previous contract. The 2000 extra minutes are any time, any network, just the same as the 900 that come as standard on Panther 45. I also managed to wangle an extra 100 texts. To my understanding, the contract runs until you upgrade. If you choose to upgrade as soon as your contract is over, then yes you will start a new contract. For me, I didn't upgrade until month 25 of my previous contract, so in that case, the extra 2000 minutes would have finished at the end of month 18.

Guest Pondrew Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 M@rkC, just in case you weren't already aware, selling on MoDaCo should be kept to the Ebay section and must have a link to an auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ClintEastman Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 What's the cooling off period for a contract upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Saif Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 What's the cooling off period for a contract upgrade? 7 days... to order your return bag. then you get another 7 days in which to actually return the handset... then thats it... so.... what you thinking?

Yeah, I'm aware of the rules......it was (intended as) light-hearted, in a kind of "celebratory" manner, coz I'm getting an M3100. Maybe because I didn't have a smiley at the end of the line you assumed I'd turned into some covert dodgy phone dealer or something....or did you miss the "Psssstttt" at the start of the line?????? Hush my mouth :D Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pondrew Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 That's the prob. By posting along those lines folks invite pms making offers. Rules are rules so we gotta remove any 'anyone want to buy my...' posts that don't include an ebay link. Smiley or no! Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest M@rkC Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 what was your monthly spend like before?? Averages about 50-60 quid, sometimes up to 100 when the increase was mostly extra business usage... did you just keep pushing them for a better deal or was there another reason? My company is offering me a VF 1605 as part of a rollout (I'm in IT Support and will be looking after them), so I told O that I don't really wanna be on the corporate phone bill or carry two devices; I would much rather keep my own contract and recharge business usage. They offered the M3100 for nowt and I also talked myself into the Panther plan - the contents of which were entirely O's suggestion :D So now I wait....and wait.....anyone know when Orange are due more stock?
