Guest hunyango_uk Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 if you are looking for a cheap c500 on pay as you go, try looking this site first: http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/offerdetails_w...=OR120M183&ID=1 8 months line rental free, 25£ 0r 30£ after.
Guest celica1.8st Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 Or you could try www.onestopphoneshop.co.uk 9 months line rental free and double minutes for the first 6 months, Free phone - then £25/month for remaining months. Can't understand why anyone would buy PAYG, when you can get the phone free, plus basically all your calls free (for a medium user) then just pay for your texts. Whereas PAYG would be £175 for the phone, then you have to pay for all your calls and all your texts. - Seems bonkers to me! Even if you don't use the free minutes it's still cheaper to buy the contract one. It would even be cheaper to buy the contract, chuck the simcard in the bin and put a PAYG card in the phone (cheaper than normal PAYG that is - Contract is still cheaper)!!
Guest hunyango_uk Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 i strongly agree with that celica, it's the cheapest and most practical that you can get . except for one, can you post the exact site of the site that says 9 months free rental. thanks.
Guest filao Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 www.mobilesuk.net Last time I looked you could get 100 x-network mins and 100 texts for £11.50 a month (this is with the phone being free) and I can tell you from experience that their customer service is second to none
Guest stretchy Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 i strongly agree with that celica, it's the cheapest and most practical that you can get . except for one, can you post the exact site of the site that says 9 months free rental. thanks. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The offer has now changed, I got mine in January when the deal was 9 months free line rental refund, It has now changed to 12 months half price line rental, Still better than PAYG! check the url for details. http://www.onestopphoneshop.co.uk/deal.php?D=half Stretchy
Guest hunyango_uk Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 (edited) i got my spv c500 on orange netwok last year, i feel bad when i just saw all the offer now for c500. it's a lot cheaper now, waaaaaaaaaaah!!!! imagine, 8 months line rental free. #-o Edited March 1, 2005 by hunyango_uk
Guest Rui_Costa Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 i pay £7 line rental a month for 6mnth with 400xnet any time mins. after 6mnth then can pay £30 for same deal or £15 for about 40ish minutes free. worked out (line rental for a year) at £2 more than the PAYG price. keeping in mind i was gonna get the PAYG for £140. was a real eye opener. people on PAYG - wanting a new phone should seriously look at these contracts. only thing is i've heard things about companies offering these deals with refund cheques and not playing up???? lets hope my lot pay up!
Guest hunyango_uk Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 (edited) got that right rui!!! practicality is the word. Edited March 2, 2005 by hunyango_uk
Guest celica1.8st Posted March 8, 2005 Report Posted March 8, 2005 yes looks like they've changed the offer at onestopphoneshop I got mine mid Feb so it looks like I was just in time! Thought the offer was too good to make them money! The biggest problem I have found with it is they sign you up for tons of services that you don't want - you then have to cancel them or end up paying for them. I have to write two letters to cancel: telephone support - £5.99 insurance - £5.99 I then have to cancel all the free trials with Orange that they have signed me up for :D They don't mind you canceling, but they make more money if you forget!
Guest Confucious Posted March 8, 2005 Report Posted March 8, 2005 I have heard of problems with rebates but every other time I've had to claim a rebate I've had no problem. Got my A1000 from onestop so I hope they pay up when it comes time. The reasons people buy PAYG are usually: a) too young to get a contract / bad credit history. :D not in the UK

I got a C500 on OVP200 tariff from them mid January with 11 months :shock: free line rental via cashback
