JoeyB Posted 17 June 2008 Author Posted 17 June 2008 Have just got the Samsung. Have only been playing with it today so not checked out all its features but very, very impressed with it so far. If you do get it it's common knowledge it's a 'mare getting the battery cover off - I've known people spend up to 2 hours trying before giving in and having to take it to the shop (who've had the same problem!). There's definitely a knack - and I have it!!! Shout if you have probs and I'll enlighten you! enlighten me now not sure which one to go for. going to pop into town tomorrow and check out both phones then ring up O2 choose my phone and start playing with it on thurs Can you get facebook on the soul?
CKB Posted 17 June 2008 Posted 17 June 2008 Can you get facebook on the soul? I don't have a soul, but i am pretty sure most new phones will get you on facebook with no problem at all!
Ashley Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 3 Network is good. My girlfriend is in Ibiza at the minute and we've been texting each other and it's not cost nothing I have no add ons what so ever to my contract. Chuffed

Chuffed I was going to get that one the other day but it wouldn't let me because I wasn't 18! But I've found a much better one on Orange anyway for the same price so it's all good.

I got my 3 contract last year. 600Texts, 75 any time any network minutes not bad for £15 a month.

Jack Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 Orange - Unlimited texts, 100 minutes - £15 a month. How'd you manage that to get that ?
SamL Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 How'd you manage that to get that ? http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/paymonthly The plan is called Dolphin 15. It's pretty good although there are only 7 phones to choose from I think.

I bought a pay as you go phone with them a few years back, but was put off by the fact that they take your credit at the end of 30 days. I suppose you don't have that problem on contract though. Cheers mate No problemo.
blue blood Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 all this mobile shit is doing my head in. Inclusive this bolt on that video calling other. This phone that phone...FFS i think i am going to report all the companies to ofcom for being too confusing. i like the c902 or n95 black though i have not seen them in the flesh. so far o2 are offering the best non-haggled contracts on both c902; 02; online 35 = £35month/12 months = £420 + £50 for phone (400 mins + 1000 txts) - 02 online tariff n95 black; o2; online 35 = £40month/12 months = £480 + £0 for phone (600 mins + 1000 txts) - 02 online tariff although i didnt think much of the tmobile contracts and not had a look at virgin or orange yet or offers on the sites like mobileshop.com or played the companies against each other like Dom from dont get done get dom would do.
blue blood Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 oh yea and what the hell has a dolphin or a racoon got to do with a mobile phone?
SamL Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 oh yea and what the hell has a dolphin or a racoon got to do with a mobile phone? Valid point. It's just an advertising strategy I suppose. It also helps to distinguish between different plans.
Finchy Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 Anyone getting an iPhone 3G in July? 16 gb £159 - £35 a month 500 minutes and 600 texts I am hoping to get one on the 11th when it comes out, do you reckon there will be big ques like in America? Hope not

Hope not £35 x 18 month contract = £630 + 159 = £789 + additional costs.
Finchy Posted 18 June 2008 Posted 18 June 2008 £35 x 18 month contract = £630 + 159 = £789 + additional costs. Good point, but the reason i'm looking at an iPhone is becasue i wanted an iPod touch but then found out it was £269. My current Nokia 6500 Slide contract is £25 a month. So, £25 x 18 = £450 + £269 = £719. When i look at it that way i thought i might as well get the iPhone and have my iPod and Phone in one thing for £70 more, plus the iPhone contract is better than my current O2 one.
blue blood Posted 19 June 2008 Posted 19 June 2008 just rang orange as been with them since my first mobile about 10 years ago. without bartering they are offering; 1) c902 for free. that comes with 600 cross network mins and unlimited txts for £20 a month for 18 months = £360. The usual price for this phone/contract is £25 a month (online price) so total of £450....so i would be saving £90 on the contract 2) n95 black for free that comes with 600 cross network mins and unlimited txts for £30 a month for 18 months = £540. The usual price for this phone/contract is £30 a month + £50 for the phone so i would be saving £50 for the phone i think more savings are needed if orange want my money for another 18 months

Mine was coughing and spluttering after 6. I cancelled my orange contract the other day, but when I went through to cancellations they offered me basically any phone free and £15 off my £29 line rental. Not a bad deal, shame they don't have any decent phones in their range.
Jack Posted 24 June 2008 Posted 24 June 2008 which phone? Nokia 6500 slide, note special but it's decent.
Alexikokopops Posted 24 June 2008 Posted 24 June 2008 I've discovered that not only do I get unlimited everything for £25 (including mobile tv), but I can also upgrade for cheap after 10 months instead of the usual 12. And I can cancel anytime I want to. That's not happening for a long time though.
Master Fox Posted 24 June 2008 Posted 24 June 2008 I only realised i've been paying nearly £20 extra on my monthly bill for nearly 3 years. Fcukers.
