Quidco is awesome, its basically free money, just takes a little research before buying anything online.

The combination of that and Hot Deal websites saves me a fair bit of cash, though I spend more as I can't resist a bargain, so they get the money out of me one way or another.

Would an iPhone work in an O2 sim i.e. a non iPhone O2 sim.
I have an O2 business phone see.

Does it still need to be jailbroken etc/

but anyone who sprung for one of the former iterations within the last month will receive an "Ultimate Price Promise" £100 refund voucher

so those who are crying because they've bought one recently, all is well

Bought mine from the Apple store online

It all happens behind the scenes via cookies. I always delete all cookies/temporary data, go to quidco, log in, follow the link to the shop and then shop as normal.

Once you've made your purchase it takes a while (upto a day or two) for your quidco to track, then depending on the shop it can take upto a month or two for it to be validated, sent to quidco and then you can pay it into your bank account.

Hmmmm seems a bit of a gamble, what happens if you delete your cookies?

trescodrucey is your £100 quidco for the iphone confirm or just tracking status only?

 

[Ripper]

Just phoned the apple store. He said they can't confirm anything until tomorrow, but that they "usually have something in place" for people like me who only recently purchased the phone.

Gotta be joking :/ Only bought it two weeks ago

I think if you have bought it within the last month you get the £100 back.

After seeing this, I am seriously considering getting one of the 8Gb iPhones tomorrow. As I don't use the internet much on my phone, I may check the footy scores when I'm out and about, would I really be affected by putting my current O2 contract SIM in and loosing out on the whole EDGE malarky? My only other concern, is that Apple may in the future bring out a firmware that makes Jailbreaking impossible, thus rendering the phone useless, would this just be case of not upgrading once this happens?

 

[Ol!ver]

Does this £100 price promise for existing users include those bought direct from Apple then?

i dont think so, from what ive read its a CPW/02 only deal.

OMG my friend from uni told me this on Monday, his sister is high up in CPW over here in NI.

Was going to post it here but forgot

o_O

Waiting for the 3G Version tho.

 

[Nymins]

So do you need to take out the 18 month contract for the £169 price? Reading the article posted above (http://www.trustedreviews.com/apple/news/2008/04/15/O2-Slashes-iPhone-Price-To-169/p1) made me think that you needed to?

 

[Ripper]

no

 

[randal]

I was worried about that too, but I think it'll be a case of walk in and purchase take home and jailbreak... or register with o2 if you wanted to do that.
