Unlimited data meaning a crap 500mb?

I want orange, but not on a crap rate and a 24 month contract.

Another option for this:

£200 cashback for ALL 12 month SIM Only £25+ tariffs From £8.33 after Quidco cashback for 1200 mins / unlimited texts!

So £8.33 * 12 = £100

+ HTC Desire sim Free £390

= £490 + only 12 months.

thats what I have just done.

Also phone is unbranded and unlocked = resell higher.

Looks good. Where did you get the phone for that price?

Also, is it £200 off if you get a £20 pm sim with £5 unlimited data bolt on?

I called Orange up last week asking about this, and since they've not put the phone fully through their own testing yet, they declined to comment on the availability of this phone.

Plus Orange are renowned for branding their phones to death so i'm unsure why they would make exceptions this time round?

...Plus, 2 month contract? no thank you :)
 
just got the email this morning as well.
And I tried login to my account just now.
And what a surprise!

I clearly payed £95 for the 15pm 100min 100text
for some reason they bumped me up to

Pay monthly 15 (24 months) £12.77
Your plan includes:
300 texts
Your minutes and texts are from the UK to UK mobile networks and numbers beginning 01, 02 and 03 (excluding Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man).
300 minutes
Your minutes and texts are from the UK to UK mobile networks and numbers beginning 01, 02 and 03 (excluding Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man).
Contract ends 26/03/2012

for the price of £55 for the handset (after the casbback)

Now I'm hoping the connectivity is decent enough otherwise it must go back within 7 days

I got a call from t-mobile today as there was a problem with my order, after sorting it out she said it would be dispatched today and would 'most likely but no promises' arrive tomorrow between 0800-1300 by royal mail special delivery.

So fingers crossed!

People who have had there Desires delivered today from T-Mobile are saying there is no branding of any sort on the phone and they are unlocked, so far looks like they are as they would be from HTC.

no branding on it I can confirm it
not sure about unlocked though
 
Phone received this morning at 8.50 direct from T-Mobile. Can confirm that the phone has no T-Mobile branding and that it has a 4GB Micro SD installed.

May well be unlocked as the box it standard HTC - indeed the label states HTC Bravo with no mention of T-Mobile. Just 3 hours to wait while it charges.....

Edit - just read elsewhere that it has the T-Mobile splash screen, so it may well be locked

anyone know a good decent screen protector?

Most people recommend Zagg invisibile shield. I tried that on another phone and had that horrible 'orange peel' effect (where you see lines all over the screen) - the best one i've used is called 'BodyGuardz'. Harder to find though.

Ok Guys here we go....

First impressions are It's Pink! :(

There is no T-Mobile Branding on the case :)

You only get a 4GB Memory Card not 8GB as some reported

So far while it is charging there only seems to be T-Mobile branding on the lock screen (see pic)

T-Mobile customer services I can not knock at all, got put straight through no long holds like with Orange or o2. Got my Orange number ported over but won't be active untill 31st March! In that time I only get 13min and 13text on my T-mobile SIM untill the numbers swap.
