Passing through Bristol airport yesterday and Dixons travel were offering £50 off the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, all colours and capacities. They seemed to have plenty of stock and said it was available nationwide to all travellers.
Not for everyone but handy if you want one

Isn't this back to the argument of showing boarding pass info and these companies claiming the VAT 20%, 20% VAT off would give a price of £449 not £489, so they are making an additional £40 profit over the regular DSG/Carphone Warehouse price of £539 sim free.
And this is after been told to pass savings on to travellers.

Irony to your comment is, all the people on benefits/job seekers end up having phones like this

iPhone has had its day, tbh I'm glad as I wouldn't have tried other phones otherwise. I wouldn't go back to Apple now.

Am I missing something? isn't this supposed to be VAT free? seems to be less than 10% of the original price?

Still it's an good deal, 6s is a good phone.

They can only claim the vat back if it was a flight outside the EU.
Also when you enter the country with it, are you not supposed to declare it as there is a limit to tax free electronics.
So this price is available to all shoppers and as you aren't seen to not pay Vat you don't get stung with it either.
Also when Dixons was Tax Free. You always paid VAT but the prices appears to be the normal cost less the VAT.

I'm still shocked to this day, people actually pay nearly £500 for a phone with a poor battery. :disappointed:

Bad battery you say? My sister is getting nearly 9 hours of usage out of her 6s. That's more than the new Nexus 6p

Not sure about the battery, but I would never pay so much money for a phone with a crappy screen. 500£ for a 750p screen is insane.

i suspect hardly anyone who owns an iphone actually buy them off contract or any high priced phone for that matter and none of them have great batteries.

Be very careful which SIM you first use as using a foreign networks during your holiday could be very costly if the iPhone then auto-locks to that network.

How do you unlock following the autolock? Presumably via. network provider? If so, will they try to charge for it even though it's been bought simfree?
