New mobile contract - Does no-one want my business ??

[bigmouk]

Found the talkplan i want (T-Mobile Everyone Off-Peak 750 - £20 a month) and the phone i want (Nokia N80).

T-Mobile - Rang them, dont have the N80 and probably wont be getting it ?

Orange - Rang them, only retail shops do the off peak plans now so cant help ? + dont have one on OVP either.

O2 - Rang them, only can do off-peak 1000 - £25 (N80 - £100), wont price match talk plans (i.e the t-mobile plan) ?

Vodaphone - Didnt bother ringing.

All the phone calls lasted < 2mins and each one sounded like they really couldnt be arsed.

Suprised no one wanted to do me a deal.

Wrong forum (now moved)

The talk plan you want probably wont get you a free n80 as its a low spend contract.

Tmobile WONT be doing the n80

N80 is a £400+ bit of hardware.

Try e2save or one of those cheapo sites

Not after the phone for free, i know i need to pay for that. Its just a phone for at home rather than using the BT phone.

Had a mooch on some other sites to no avail. Looks like it will have to be the o2 1000 mins 18 month contract.

can you not get it on a more expensive contract for a bit & then drop down to a lower one ?

sod getting in 18 month contract, although most like T - mob & 02 etc seem to be pushing them at the min. Plus some contracts exclude upgrades.

Could be a good idea, im sure most have cracked on to this though and specify you stay on a plan for x months or something.

got my n80 for free with vodafone. £40 a month, 500 minutes 250 texts

 

[bigmouk]

Just purely for off peak calls at home though. If i got a £40 a month plan the phone would actually cost me £240 (£20 a month more) instead of £100 one off payment.

Nothing is free because you pay for it in your contract.
