Does anyone here, or anyone close to anyone here work in a mobile telephone establishment?

    They're all over the place these days, it'd be easier to find someone who doesn't live near one.

    What kind of shops are you going in?

    Like the 02 shop/3 store? Or just independent little shops that offer you deals on loads of networks?

    Just buy a pay as you go. All phone shops are out to pull your pants down. IMO

    Yeah, that's why I'm getting 500 free anytime, any network minutes and 500 free texts a month for £20. I'm getting properly shafted there right enough.

    Lie to the other networks. Phone up o2 and say Orange offered you the above, and they'll beat it.

    Ah cool.

    If you take a deal out from one of them stores, remember that your contract is (initially at least) with them and not the network. So if they've offered you half price line rental or cash back, then they'd be the ones responsible for it, not 3 or 02. And I can assure you that Phones 4 U are masters of fucking things like that up.

    You might want to have a look on the website of the network you're interested in as well.

    Get a 3 contract and when it goes tits up you can write abusive emails to me. Add a sob story and I might consider adding tonnes and tonnes of free line rental on, cause I'm soft like that :thumb:
