Is This Too Good To Be True?

Ive just noticed these...

*Line rental will revert to �29 per month after 1/2 price period.

*18 month agreement.

So i guess its not a very good offer?

Where did you see this?
In the UK?

Hey,

This actually looks quite good. It says 10 months half price line rental to.

Hmmm, gonna look further into it.

it only says PLUS 8 months half price rental - FREE then the rest of the 10 months �29.99 + vat and so on which comes up to �33.00 and �33x10mnths=�330 + �9x8mnths=�72 > this is the first 8mnths half price...

which would be �402. Isnt that right? So is this still a good deal???

Not really no, especially if you look on Ebay and see them for sale for about �400.

Shame, gotta keep looking.

What kind of maths is this? You are getting PHONE SERVICE for that money. If you buy an unlocked phone for 400 quid, you still have to pay for phone service on top of that.

Also, there are acyallu many other tarrifs avilable for this phone including several 12 months ones where it is still "free". take a look at the drop-donw menu on the side.

I'd say the bigger problem is that its T-mobile. Poeple in London seem to say that their signal is not so great - they operate on 1800 not 900mhz I think.

mobilerepublic/onestopphoneshop do not have a very good reputation. I doubt they even have them in stock.

I have just ordered my phone through Vodafone UK. I am told that i will have the phone in my hand by Tuesday. I will be paying �40 per month, Phone Free, 500 Cross network min free, �12 Free Data outside the Vodafone live website each month and 100 text messages and 50 video min.

I think it is a good deal as a lot better then im currently paying through O2.

http://www.vodafone-i.co.uk/live/3g_phones.html I called them as im Porting my number from O2. I asked when will the phone be released and they said they are getting shipments in over the weekend and that they can process my order now. So the phone will be in Vodafone shops on monday if you dont want to wait the extra day.

This deal i belive is only avaliable over the website. Give them a call and find out on 0800-068-6570
