gam3r said:Sorry to hi-jack your thread mate, but i was wondering. The offers which are like 3.99 per month line rental + free phone for a 12month period, can you cancel the contract after 12 months and keep the phone?
Tomsk said:You should think of these deals like the interest free deals in shops.
If you really want or need the special offer item, then go for it.
But remember that the item on offer will usually be cheaper (sometimes, a lot cheaper) to buy in 12 or 18 months time.
Spamalot said:The phones is yours to keep, yes! There are some great offers to be had. Best I have found atm is an W800i (I dont like it but masses do!) for £20 for the whole year and the phone (worth aorund £150) plus mins!
gam3r said:where could i find such deals? could you point me to a site? thanks and sorry
goody_106 said:here we go an example from a quick search:
Phone - Sony W8101
Free Gift - Sony PSP Giga pack
Contract - Orange Canary 30
Minutes - 200 minutes plus 50 to orange off peak per month
Texts - 575 per month
18 Month Contract
£30 per month
now to me that seems a good deal ?
im sure the majority of you have contract phones where the bills are more than £30 a month ?

lol, its not for me!Spamalot said:Are you joking, you still want it.
Spamalot said:So that work out at £30 *18= £540 for the W810i and a psp giga pack.
Or
you could get this (you will have to cut a paste the link)
Thats (7 * £1.99) + (5 * £30) = £169.93
Explain how your is the better deal when your paying £370.07 for a PSP giga pack?

yes exactly you have to keep a contract for a minimum of 12 months anyway so the extra they will make would be the 6 months at £30 which is a total of £180 more than a normal £30 a month contractspirit said:you do understand that that isn't a proper comparison, as its 18month vs 12months...
So u paying that "370.07" for PSP and 6months which equates to 190.07 for the PSP
however, you have to keep your phone for longer..which is how they make more money
