1st Post so please take it easy. Lost my phone over the weekend. Called into my local Three store in Belfast to buy a new 1 and was told that the Three store in Banbridge outlets sell ALL handsets (apart from Apple) with 30% off. This is the only store in the UK currently doing this.
This brought my new Samsung s8 down from £690 to £483.
The only issue is that you must be a Three customer already. This is easily bypassed by getting a PAYG sim and cancelling a few weeks later. The manager in store confirmed this.
Lowest price I found in UK was Amazon at £525.
Suspect they may deliver if you order over the phone but haven't confirmed.
Deal now confirmed as IN STORE ONLY at Banbridge Outlet in Northern Ireland. - KingCampo
Deal only available in one store in UK - BAINBRIDGE OUTLET in NORTHERN IRELAND. - vassy1

Stop moaning not everyone like you has no job and post deals all day. Be grateful he's posted it and has even mentioned it's his first post so go easy. Just because you lost your chance of getting it you want to make a rant over it.
Oh and before you complain about a late deal posted have a look at your own deal you posted about coke on offer back in march at 10:27pm when everyone's sleeping! Think before your speak

I read one comment that the price quoted to them at this store was not discounted.. Therefore I stand by what I said.
If Three indeed made this deal official and its still running then this is a good deal for NI. As far as I can read on this deal only 1 person has benefited from this deal at this store.
wolfyjam
21 Jun 172#134
Im afraid your information is only partially correct.
As this is store is situated in an outlet village this offer NEVER ends.
This offer is for 30% off on ANY android phone if you buy the handset only, not if you start a contract.
The offer for an additional £50 discount is valid only if you start a new contract in store with an android phone.
As discussed earlier in the thread, we now know that this is for IN STORE only.
Fair enough to be annoyed that this is for 1 store only but you cant deny that this is a complete bargain for the 1.8million people in Northern Ireland.

EE have 20% off all instore contracts in Belfast too. It says on the post exclusive to Northern Ireland
jrandrews72

I read the whole thread and the OP. As I said this is for 1 shop only. Confirmed in the thread that this is in store only. Also confirmed that the offer is no longer valid, proven by the person stating the price they were quoted and also the web site offer showing only a £50 discount.
I have the correct information and my assessment of this post is still valid.
Even if I lived 10 miles from the store I would not change my opinion of this deal.

As AbandonedTrolley said, O2.
Or, do the maths and realise that buying the OnePlus 3T or 5 outright and having a Sim Only deal (every network does them, some a lot better than others) will save you money in the long run, as well as far greater flexibility.
You could budget the £20-25 a month you'll be saving in line rental in a 'handset pot' which you dip into whenever you want to upgrade/change your handset. You're not a slave of the networks and their timings, then. And the resale value of your phone can even help you chop and change every 6 months if you're clever about selling on the old one.

Just to clarify, this is only available in the Banbridge Outlet store. 30% off any handset with a min £10 PAYG sim, excluding Apple products. There wont be a chance of delivery as its an instore deal only. This deal has always been available from this particular store. One caveat I would say however is that they wont hold an awful lot of stock on many phones and I would say they would prefer to keep a few instock specifically for customer upgrades and new contracts. If you have any questions ask away.

They've gotta recoup some of their losses from the exploding Note 7s..
These seem less 'explodey', which is good.
As for those asking 'why only one store' - when a store is located within an 'outlet village' shopping complex, it must sell it's goods at a discount of the RRP. The point of the stores is normally end-of-line or seconds, but with electricals that's harder to maintain unless you have a good stock of refurbished equipment.
So retailers get great rent deals, on a busy retail estate, but have to take some hits on their margin to do so.
It's actually stipulated in the lease contract, so failure to offer discounts means they get kicked off the site.
Carphone Warehouse stores on McArthur Glen outlet villages sell refurbished handsets (where possible) from Geek Squad and offer a blanket 10% off accessories vs. 'normal' stores. You can still buy a 'new' handset on a contract, etc. though.
(Source: I used to work for Carphone Warehouse, looking after store sites and doing store refurbishments)

If this deal is legit then it's amazing. I find it weird that Three would choose a location for a store where they would lose that much money on every phone they sell that's not Apple though... maybe the rent is super low and it balances out or something. Not voting either way until tomorrow when I'll ring them and see if this is legit :smile:

I was informed by the manager that as the store is in an Outlet Village they have to provide reductions on their stock. This has been available since the store opened but they obviously don't widely publicise it as they would be losing so much money. This WILL be honoured. I guarantee it
Opening post
This brought my new Samsung s8 down from £690 to £483.
The only issue is that you must be a Three customer already. This is easily bypassed by getting a PAYG sim and cancelling a few weeks later. The manager in store confirmed this.
Lowest price I found in UK was Amazon at £525.
Suspect they may deliver if you order over the phone but haven't confirmed.
Deal now confirmed as IN STORE ONLY at Banbridge Outlet in Northern Ireland.

If Three indeed made this deal official and its still running then this is a good deal for NI. As far as I can read on this deal only 1 person has benefited from this deal at this store.
As this is store is situated in an outlet village this offer NEVER ends.
This offer is for 30% off on ANY android phone if you buy the handset only, not if you start a contract.
The offer for an additional £50 discount is valid only if you start a new contract in store with an android phone.
As discussed earlier in the thread, we now know that this is for IN STORE only.
Fair enough to be annoyed that this is for 1 store only but you cant deny that this is a complete bargain for the 1.8million people in Northern Ireland.
I have the correct information and my assessment of this post is still valid.
Even if I lived 10 miles from the store I would not change my opinion of this deal.
or only for today? thank you
Just put "instore" in the search and you'll see what I mean! It just doesn't make any sense?!
Oh, and you have to have a cow to swop...you may have to do a bit of climbing...and slay a giant!
Do you think I'll get hottest deal of the day?
God forbid if any NI resident wants to buy furniture or fridge from cheap websites

Note: "Not valid with any other offer of promotion in-store."
Site baffles me at times, hottest deal of the day yet only the op has confirmed they have got the deal. Bonkers!
Whilst I appreciate I could phone them up to enquire about it, I'm sure the store has received a fair amount of phone calls today from peeps asking similar questions.
Thanks in advance!
It's now been confirmed, therefore adding the info in first post saves a lot of wasted time for most people.
Or, do the maths and realise that buying the OnePlus 3T or 5 outright and having a Sim Only deal (every network does them, some a lot better than others) will save you money in the long run, as well as far greater flexibility.
You could budget the £20-25 a month you'll be saving in line rental in a 'handset pot' which you dip into whenever you want to upgrade/change your handset. You're not a slave of the networks and their timings, then. And the resale value of your phone can even help you chop and change every 6 months if you're clever about selling on the old one.
These seem less 'explodey', which is good.
As for those asking 'why only one store' - when a store is located within an 'outlet village' shopping complex, it must sell it's goods at a discount of the RRP. The point of the stores is normally end-of-line or seconds, but with electricals that's harder to maintain unless you have a good stock of refurbished equipment.
So retailers get great rent deals, on a busy retail estate, but have to take some hits on their margin to do so.
It's actually stipulated in the lease contract, so failure to offer discounts means they get kicked off the site.
Carphone Warehouse stores on McArthur Glen outlet villages sell refurbished handsets (where possible) from Geek Squad and offer a blanket 10% off accessories vs. 'normal' stores. You can still buy a 'new' handset on a contract, etc. though.

Go run to Three store - DISAPPOINTMENT GUARANTEED!!!
Also the S8 is pretty badass so I don't think they need to play these tricks
Oh and before you complain about a late deal posted have a look at your own deal you posted about coke on offer back in march at 10:27pm when everyone's sleeping! Think before your speak
do three phones come unlocked, or how much to unlock them?
*eats hat*
*votes hot*
Nice find OP! Fingers crossed they'll deliver nationally from this store but something tells me they won't or there'll be some long distance selling loophole that means they won't have to apply the 30% unless purchased I store. Nevertheless, super hot and if you're anywhere near wolfyjam get down there! :smile:
Telephone number is - 028 40624649
Have you got the store phone number please
