Not posted a deal for a while so apologies if I've cocked up. Seems like a cracking deal to me. The phone seems to be selling for £350-£400 on its own so £258 over 12mths with calls, texts and dat thrown in makes it a bit of a no-brainer if you were looking at the P8 anyway.
It's on CPW's new iD Mobile service (runs on Three) and, unusually for a contract, is just for 12 months.

Some of you bunch of moaning, greedy and ungrateful bleeps!
You Moan about the slightest things wrong with the phone, saying its not as good as a £550 Samsung or iPhone, but then some of you still have the cheek to sell them on eBay for in-excess of £350!
The phone is practically free, you moan the networks not right, customer service is poor. You are paying £21 for a top of the range phone over 12 months, with a price plan that could easily be paying the same for over 24 months!
This website makes me want to scream at times, with the amount of ignorant people on here, who expect the best for nothing!

Just spoken to CPW customer service, apparently the mystic champagne model is solid 9ct gold, has 100 gb internal memory and is triple sim, mine is being delivered tomorrow by a nun on a donkey, can't wait.

I've had mine for a couple of days, was a bit worried coming from Cyanogenmod 11 on an SGS2, there wasn't really any need to be.
I unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM, rooted, installed busybox and then installed apex launcher.
After that, I removed all the useless apps, set a data limit (Install Activity Launcher from Play Store > Settings > Data Usage and set the limit) make sure to change the cycle to start on the first day of your billing period. If you long press on Data Usage you can add a shortcut to the homescreen.
Seems like a great deal, I have been looking at this phone at around £310 from one of the Amazon Europe sites. I was then planning on pairing with a Three unlimited data sim.
Although this is only 1gb it works out a good deal cheaper, it's just a shame the plans only offer up to 2gb as I would like at least 4gb! Seems bizzare to pay for this contract on top of Three but I might end up doing that.
I think there's also £10 Quidco that can be had with this.
Would love to try one of these phones out before buying but may pre-order this and if I don't like it return within 14 days.

Crackers, isn't it? I suppose if you have a partner/trusted friend you could always give the plan to them?

Will the phone be locked?

Yeah, that's really good question. Is there anyone to answer? If it is locked, wondering fee?

This phone will be unlocked to use any compatible Nano SIM for whichever network provider you wish to choose.

Thank you for making us aware of this deal. Amazingly cheap, I went for the £21.50 deal and I'll call up if I like the network to make it 2gb or higher.

I'm going to jump on this if Three will get their back sides in gear and send my bleeding PAC code across. 30minutes of arguing that this is an upgrade and better deal than what they offer me now and the guy just had none of it.
Edit: Finally managed to process the order through. Now on to finding a case for it.

What? Since when have you had to prove you've found a better deal to get your PAC code?

I have just ordered a black one. I am going to try to contact ID Mobile to discuss possibility of upgrading the contract.
Thanks OP!

If I'm reading it right online, this will be the 64gb model wont it? Everywhere says the white and black are premium colours and offer 64gb rather than the standard 16 of the grey and gold. Hopefully they honour this. I've taken a print screen of the deal anyway for the inevitable argument that will happen at the end of 12months when they turn around and say the deal was 24months if I don't take it.

Taken from iD Mobile website:
"Memory
Internal Memory: 16/64 GB, 3 GB RAM
Expandable memory: microSD, up to 128"
I wouldn't count on it being 64gb... but worst case you can return it within 14 days of receipt free of charge.

Applied a dark theme (http://www.huaweithemes.cf/2015/04/ota-black-all-dark-theme-for-emui-30.html) and it's pretty much there.
