I visited my local Phones 4U today to see about a Nokia 6100.
At the moment i have 600 off peak mins + 50 texts free and i want a similar deal.
The closest they do now is 300 + 50 texts for the same as i'm paying now. This would be fine but they want £150 for the phone
Does anyone know where would be a good place to meet my needs? I would pay upto £50 for the phone!

You might want to say what your current monthly charge is, and what network you are on

Although i personally can provide you with a service that offers 601 free minutes per month and 51 text messages plus a free 6100 - at only GBP500PCM

That would be good Boro
It seems to me that Vodaphone are moving away from loads of free off peak mins in favour of x network/anytime mins and flippin daft picture messages I spend quite a bit of time on the phone to other Voda users in the evenings so i require plenty of off peak mins for under £20 a month.

I spoke to him briefly, the problem with off-peak contracts is there isnt alot of commission in it for the dealers. So that means the phones can be quite expensive.

Ive left it with him, hes gonna let me know monday

Best way might be to give Phones 4U 30 days notice to terminate contract. They will then myther you to death and offer you a crazy deal to keep your custom.
