Heat added I was offered a rentention deal with Vodafone earlier of 8GB unlimited txt and mins and free Spotify for £32.90 a month £10 upfront , but I'd say they deal might just be a shade better in price but not data
No gear VR either

Anyway to keep my number if I'm already with ee? My contract is ending in a few days.

Is Grey the same as silver???

Can you unlock this phone straightaway? I'm on o2 and was after this phone, was going to give my phone to my mum and keep the s8 :smile: xx

Have EE, got an equivalent to 3's Feel at home?

Has anyone bought of this site before, mobiles.co.uk? Is it reliable? And safe?

Plus, £31.25 via top cashback

CPW? What happens if you have an issue with the phone? Who do you contact for a repair ext? I've seen really good deals on this site for a long time and have avoided buying a phone from it.

And last question :smile: Do you have insurance? Who with? And I see they offer insurance on their site, have you ever taken it? And have you ever had to use them for repairs?

I just got a retention deal from EE - £31.99 a month, no upfront cost and 15GB EE Max plan but sadly no VR or Dex. I did ask for it but I was told No :relaxed:

This deal is probably better though with free Gear VR if 5GB of data is enough. I wish I had seen this before :disappointed:

After a brief phone call to Voda last month to get the costs down for this phone were;
A: wait until month end pay day deals.
B: wait until sept for the Note 8 launch.

It looks like this is happening, I'm still stuck in contract with them until December on a sim only plan, but can upgrade now...I need this deal, how can I get out cheaply?

Got one thanks, I went for the coral blue.

was waiting to buy the note 8 but realised I don't really want to pay an extra £300. So I got this. Thanks.

Does anybody know the pricing of the data addons on ee. I'm asking because coming from three, different customers have different options. With 5GB, I think I will need to use it sometimes. Thanks

Im with 3. What are EE like Never been with them. Tempting deal tho....

Also, can you use the 5gb allowance as a personal hot-spot / tethering both in UK and eu?

Now if anyone can find me a s8 keyboard case for cheapsies, I'd be mighty pleased! :grin:

Anyone who has received this - is the phone using EE firmware?

I got this phone a few weeks ago on an EE retention deal. Apart from it having a gorgeous screen and being lightning fast, the camera is it's strongest point for me. We had an S7 in the house and a Huawei P8. The camera on the P8 was far superior to the S7 so I wasn't expecting that much of an upgrade on the S8. But it's truly stunning compared with anything we've had before on a phone. Make good use of the camera/vid if you go for it - you won't be disappointed.

guys as gvb67 said, £31.50 cashback from Top cashback. mine hasn't tracked yet but its worth a shot.

Mine says 10 only from top cash back I was expecting 31.50 but it just says 10.

did you click on the EE one? it showed up on mine.

I was going to sell the Gear VR, so had a look on eBay.
It might have a RRP of £119, but going price seems to be £35-40, which is not quite what I was expecting.
Still, pretty good price for the phone though.

Yes that's what I clicked on.

With this I honestly don't understand how anyone would choose to buy Samsung Galaxy Note 8 for around 900 quid.

They are literally the same - the pen, they even have bigger battery.

Also I guess the 2x zoom, but not worth the extra 400pounds.

Bought chears op, my mrs pushed my xiaomi max off the table yesterday smashing it to pieces then i lost it and threw it in the paddling pool to finish it off lol, so need a new phone!

You're welcome mate. Will keep an eye out for a cheap anger management course :wink:

Good deal indeed, best in 3 weeks as we've been looking daily for the wife. Tempted to go for it myself but find it really hard to justify upgrading from S7edge. Will see what S9 is like :smile:

If you are with lloyds, might be worth setting up the direct debit on your lloyds account after activating the offer for a possible £50
hotukdeals.com/dea…e=1

Think you may have been looking at the old model - Gear VR 2017 sells for a bit more as it has a controller. They still don't sell for £119 though so don't get your hopes up!

Does anyone know if the S8PAYDAY code works on S8+ deals on other networks, or just this exact deal on EE? I ordered an S8+ Vodafone deal from them yesterday, £199 up front £29 PM with the VR and Cashback. Got an email to say they are out of stock in black today, now considering this..

Great deal, but are there any great deals for the S8+, I can wait for now

Yep, he's looking at the older model. From what I know, they're sending the 2017 one. Its not worth £119, no way in hell. But you might be able to sell it for a good £60-70. (From the comparison of prices on gumtree).

Hm, I don't know, pal. I don't think it'll work anyways. Top cash back say something about not being able to be used in conjunction with another promotional voucher. I'll keep you updated if anything changes though. :smile:

Looks like £50 on eBay is most likely right now so just under £40 after fees and shipping.

4gb can be had for £6-7 with unlimited calls and texts quite a bit on hukd mostly with three.
I'll say £8 to be generous. (24*8 = £192)

£756 - (£40+£192) = £524

You're getting the phone for £524 effectively, less if you value the contract or headset more.
You're getting 24 months interest free credit on the phone too.
(You're stuck in a 2 year contract on the flipside of that though)

Overall you could buy the phone for a similar price from Amazon Italy on a 0% purchases card and do a 12 month SIMO, but it's a bit more work for little return. Plus you can choose any colour on this deal rather than whatever happens to be the cheapest on Amazon.

That came with the s8? That's a really good deal if so. I will ask for this as my contact ends in a couple days.

Thats some intense calculations. Nice one.

Fantastic deal. Just bought the black version. Does anyone know if these phones come unlocked?

Yes, it comes unlocked. :smile:

How much is Gear VR worth?

This is good offer and there is another offer on mobilephonedirect for someone who need plenty of data

30 gb data, Unlimited minutes and texts, 29 pound per month but they will get s7 edge
mobilephonesdirect.co.uk/con…all

gear vr 2017 with controller cost £110 on amazon

S8 has been out for 6 months, note 8 is not out yet.

How soon is delivery after ordering?

mmmmm I need this phone to use my existing sim in.. And would give the sim to my son, do I wait not wanting the VR I'm currently on £20 a month AYCE data on Three with tethering which is MOST important for me, I am willing to pay £10 a month for my sons sim (plusnet was the choice) so this would in effect cost me £37.99 a month with AYCE on Three. Do I go for it or wait wanted free phone and wanted silver too

If only this was on a network that got 4G signal in my area!

What you guys think.. Soooooo tempted so £37.99 AYCE INCLUDING TETHERING WILL I GET BETTER DEAL?

If you have House Insurance in most cases it's covered under Contents, so no need to pay for separate Mobile Phone Insurance :smile:

I have called three to match the price. They offer me £39/month for 24 months with no upfront. 30 GB essential plan with free roaming in Europe countries (no tethering) unlimited text and mins

Anyone know if I can get my old number transferred onto this? My contract doesn't end until November.

Yes mate exact same deal can be had from various online retailers with free phone at £36 but essential plan is not what I need cheers.

The P8 was better than the S7? Really?

Is that in camera or printed also?

The other retailers seem offer a better deal for sure. I kept pushing them to lower the price but they can't go further down. So I decide to get new contract with other retailers end of next month.

Both Topcashback and Quidco state in their their terms that they won't pay out if a voucher code has been used that isn't on their website. Worth a try still but important to note for those factoring in the cashback to the total cost they will be paying

Ordered last night, quidco tracked, only a tenner, but something is better than nothing

Yes and mine only tracked 10 from Top cashback.

so confused between this deal and Xiaomi redmi note

Pros for Xiaomi
- £137 + 2 year plusnet of £10pm => approx £380 compared to £775 galaxy (with expected monthly cost with inflation)
- dual sim and no contract

Pros for Galaxy
- UK deal
- VR set
- better phone?

hmm.. confused confused confused :disappointed:

I've actually got a xiaomi Redmi Note 3 pro, the one things that I've found SOO frustrating has been the awful camera. If the phone had a decent camera, phones like the Apple/Samsung etc ... Wouldn't get a look in.

thanks for sharing your experience. I'm more tending towards Galaxy now.

85 upfront...not exactly free vr

Does anyone know how long the payday deal is valid for?

Vodafone retention couldn't even come close to this price for me, so I kicked them into touch.

One annoying thing with mobiles.co.uk is that you have to complete transaction over phone if you've had more than 2 addresses in past 3 years (which means you won't get cashback from Quidco)

So to clear up what I've got is...

+ Galaxy s8 (black)
+ Free upfront handset (quidco (which has already tracked) & selling the VR set should cover the £85
+ Unlimited minutes
+ Unlimited text
+ 5gb (4g) EE data

All for £27.99 per month (2 year contract)

Great deal although 5GB will be a bit light for many people. Great if you are often using wifi.

Ordered. Gave it a whirl using quidco and have also accepted the £50 cashback offer on my Lloyds account mentioned in the earlier comments. Combine that with flogging the VR and I'll be getting the handset for nowt and then it's just £27.99 for the contract. Delighted! Well, the Mrs will be.

A mobile phone for the price of a second hand car? Are you mad? Just get a one plus phone for less than half this price and a sim package for much less and better value than these status symbols.

Yes. always buy with them. No problem at all. Last 3 contracts and my wifes 2 contracts with them.

It'll track but it's unlikely they will pay out. Absolutely still worth a try and a great deal nonetheless

Lol

Does a status symbal sound the same as the normal symbal?

Will this work with the S8 plus too?

My current contract for S7 is with them - no problem at all

1. a 2nd hand car for £700 won't last 2 years

2. the oneplus 5 is £450-£500. add in a data plan and its a comparable cost.

3. who are you to tell people how to spend their money? each to their own

Yes, by a fair margin actually. Tbh, I haven't printed from either although I display them on a 4k laptop screen.

Well done mate..

I'd never done it before, but I've currently got a ee sim only contract. I phoned them up to give my 30 days notice & request a pac code for when the phone/new sim card arrives.
The customer service lady from ee claimed they can't transfer my phone number from my current sim to the new one!?..., so will need to use a brand new number!?

I imagine there's a lot of people that have been in my shoes... Is there a solution?

Go get a pay as you go SIM card from another network, port your original number over, once completed ask for the PAC number for it again and the port it back to your new EE sim.

Get a free or cheap pay as you go sim from another provider and port your number to that. Then once that has completed just port it back. I haven't needed to do this but shouldn't be a problem. Will take 2 or 3 days though I think. If you google it you should get some examples.
(trakker1 beat me to the answer)

Thanks for the assistance. Soo annoying having to do that!

VR will not cover your £85.

£75. Quidco tracked for £10 pretty much immediately.
Doesn't matter anyway, even if I get £50 for it, it's still close to a free handset, which I never thought I'd get :grin:

I agree. The camera has blown me away. Approaching dslr standards, somehow...

Toss a coin up in the air and choose one you think is better for you before it lands. And then get that.

I wouldn't want to drive a second hand car that cost £33 a month. And could cost you a whole lot more than that, at any time. Really baseless comparison.

And personally, I avoid taking financial advice from people who struggle to spell. It's not a good proxy for a sharp mind.

Sorry are these unbranded and unlocked??

These are Samsung galaxy S8's and unlocked.

‌ :joy:

Barclays offer reasonably priced gadget insurance of you have a current or joint account with them... Roughly £10/month, £25 excess on claims, more if it's an iPhone.

lets hope they are all honoured and delivered

This deal is only offered for another hour, people!

I just spoke to customer service and they informed me...of course it could be a pack of lies to encourage people to take the deal but if anyone is on the fence about it, make up your mind quick! :thinking:

Also, if anyone wants to ring them, please do not call the number 0871 220 3580 as they charge for it as far as I am aware. You can speak to them using this number 01509 618770 as it is free if you have inclusive minutes on your phone. :thumbsup:

Thanks for posting. Just ordered for 21st birthday present. Heat added. :smile:

What colour have people gone for?

Yes thinking grey to show less finger prints

anyone gone from s7 to s8? much improvement?

Yeah, I took an o2 upgrade contract out with them last year, all good.

Thinking 5gb might not be enough anyone seen similar with 8 or above for possibly £30 a month

it finishes at 14.30

anyone had theirs yet? when do you get the vr headset delivered?

I checked the Samsung website and the free VR deal ended 15th august, will be interesting to find out how to claim.

They said it would come with the phone tomorrow when I ordered

Yes as essentially the £85 you are spending on the phone equates to another £3.50 over 2 years so if you can find a better allowance with a free phone for around £30 a month then this would be a better deal. I can't see this being the only deal thats likely to be around the VR headset not a deal maker for me and the extra £85 has to be taken into consideration . Good deal for a lot of people but im holding fire.
Cheers OP

Think I will wait as the Samsung Note is out so may get a few more offers soon on the S8

Mobiles state it, so they'd have to honour it somehow, surely... False advertising otherwise.

Yes im sure this will be the start of a lot of deals!!! they have dressed this up to be a bit better deal then it really is with the VR and discount code IMO

Just got email saying order is complete and will be dispatched soon. :smile: No mention of free gift in email though.

VR is a bonus. Total over 2 years with 5gb of data makes it a decent deal for S8

Yes defo best deal around at moment hence the heat..

Deal apparently just expired, but the code still works :smile:

That's what I've been looking for when found this one. I'm sure better deals will pop up but if S8 is anything like S7 last year, deals won't be very common. Also, I was looking specifically for EE or O2

upfront cost is now £110 when i check

Think this was due to the issue's with the note 7 more then anything as no alternative, so unless the Note 8 starts to experiance similar issues then gets withdrawn from sale the S8 prices should contiue to tumble

Cheers lol. I spent last night deciding between the free s7 edge £25/m on 3 or this. S7 edge has a bigger battery, but went for this as i said i would never go back to 3 and im a pe teacher so want a better phone than the kids :). I dont think there is much in it upgrading from the edge so good shout.

£100 when I just re-checked... They've put the handset price up, sneaky! Voucher code continues to remove £155 though.

(Still got my basket up from earlier, refreshing it remains at £85... just deciding whether to go for it or not before I close the browser!)

Why would you do that? Your contract is with the retailer, NOT the manufacturer. (Consumer Rights Act 2015)

People should not be so quick to throw away their statutory rights, this lets big business walk all over us and continue to shrug their shoulders and fob us off onto the manufacturer when they feel like it.

My upgrade is due and ee won't match this deal so I would have to cancel ee to rejoin ee! Hassle thought they would have matched it

Three are the same mate.. Pointless even trying. That's why I'm amazed when someone posts a retention deal

Appears to be the standard now. I cancelled and got myself a free o2 payg sim from their website and done the transfer earlier this month. Been waiting for a good deal on the s8+ but just couldnt beat this especially with the VR Gear.

Hot Hot Hot.Just ordered one, thanks for posting :smile:

Upfront cost has gone up to £100

Just ordered, £85 upfront because I still had my basket open from pre-2:30pm when the price went up :grin:

No email from Quidco yet, who are offering £30 cashback for EE contracts (likely won't work due to using a voucher though)

damn, how are phones that expensive...
a Moto G4 goes for around £120 doesnt it?

Just a word of warning. Mobiles.co.uk aren't the most reputable company, and have appalling customer service. Should you have any problems, your only point of conversation is a 1-way contact-us form as their customer service email is a no-reply email address. Incredibly difficult to have a conversation with that. They ask for proof, yet provide no way of sending it. Refuse to give an email address and ask that screenshots be sent to them via facebook/twitter (where they don't accept your friend request) or royal mail tracked delivery.

Have had to fight with them recently due to them attempting to scam me, recouped the money via Vodafone in the end after being lied to and threatened with false legal ramifications which I called them out on.

The most I got out of mobiles.co.uk was a nice Irish lady who rang me up telling me she was a manager, and to shout at me down the phone and refuse to listen to anything I had to say, basically trying to scare me off. When challenged, had the phone hung up on me. She seemed very shocked that I wasn't cowed by the tirade, giving me the feeling this was just another tactic in the long line of them.

Absolutely appalling treatment. It takes a lot to make my lazy ass fight instead of just writing it off, but these guys pulled it off.

Anyone else gone from 3 to EE? Any better for coverage / 4G? (Manchester area)

My partner took out a simular deal via mobiles.co.uk and used 20% NHS discount (email EE direct with proof) and got £50 cash back through Lloyds bank everyday offers.

Hmm to expensive so far

Was this through EE direct or a 3rd party?

Screen aspect ratio is not good and not with an industry standard, theverge.com/201…dge that may be the reason price is going down. People don't want to buy stretchy screen. Previously 3 lines of message would be now 9 lines now.

Wrong. It's not like they made it narrower. They made it longer, allowing for on screen buttons. Your statement about 9 lines is incorrect, it will still be 3 lines. You can fit more lines on the longer screen before you need to scroll.

Lol you have no idea what you're talking about if a tiny change in aspect ratio means it's a "sketchy screen"

Expired.... It's £15 more. (Voted hot anyways!)

I just compared with note 3 phonearena.com/pho…311 definitely its narrower by 1 cm by body size and believe screen also narrower in width.

I'll update the deal in a bit. Tried adding AUGPAY10 to knock a tenner off but looks like they only accept one voucher at a time. Even with £100 still a good deal I personally think.

It is narrower by 8.9mm. Half of it or even more will be taken by bezels on Note 3, so we are talking what, 4mm difference maximum? Note series has (used to have) different form factor allowing for writing using the s-pen. It's changed with N7 and N8 where it's more like Galaxy series now hence people choosing not too pay the premium for the Note.

Valid point however, the article was written back in March and I have yet to read of any problems to date.

Anyone having any luck with EE retentions/offers? Best I could come up with was ultd mins/text and 15gb of data for 37.99 pm

They told me they could get nowhere near this deal and to go for it

Guys, I take it the company has a returns/ cooling down period?..
How good is this company with returns? I think I've had enough time to think it over, and decide I'm better off staying as I am. Having a sim only contract, and keeping my xiaomi Redmi Note 3 pro. It works out far cheaper. The only downfall is the (not so good) camera.

I got the same as you. I should get the phone tomorrow.

Thank you tinky13for posting this deal. :grin:

yup, dont open anything then contact them - provided its within 14 days you'll be fine

Voted hot but I'm going to play the waiting game a bit longer

How to transfer your phone number? Also the price for me is 771 in total right now. Did it change maybe?

Get a plusnet 30day contract. (£5). Port to it. Port again back to EE
I've tried pay-as-go last time with virgin mobile, but didn't work. But pay monthly worked with ease

I just upped the time spent at precious address to hit 3 years total and all went through fine. Phone arrives tomorrow :grin:

I was offered this but with 200 upfront!!

I told them about the 3 uswitch offer of ultd mins/texts and 30gb of data for £36 and they came back with 37.99 with no upfront costs. Always quote other online offers and they soon change their tune.

Finally!!!!!

Some truth to the matter.

Do not get me wrong. This phone is absolutely beautiful and one of the best looking mobiles ever made.

But creating a whole new aspect ratio is asking for trouble.

You are reliant on all the android app developers optimizing the apps for the Samsung 2017 18:9 ratio or whatever it is.

Video content is 16:9 for the most part and will continue to be. Youtube or other video companies won't be creating tv series, movies or video content for this phone so you will more than likely have black bars unless panning in and losing some video outline.

I'm not going for any phones that muddle the AR ratio as it leaves you in uncertainty of whether your favourite apps and video will be updated for this ratio.

Great phone without a shadow of a doubt, but people need to know that by making the phone taller and not as wide to accommodate 16:9 it could make for some weird visuals.

Heat for this deal as it was seriously good value. I won't be biting but appreciate all the helpful info the OP has put in and the posters in the thread.

Can't find how to edit the post to mention extra £15 (probably because trying to do it on a mobile). Could a mod change it for me please?

It is carphonewarehouse sister company. Don't worry about opening and testing stuff. You still can return it within 14 days.

Funny screen ratio is EXACTLY what stopped me in my tracks (that and the extra £15 they added on - why is this deal not expired yet?)

what return reasons can one use? i bet its a battle

You have the legal right. No need to make up any reason

Same either that one or 2gb data unlitd mins/txts, for £31.99 free phone.. they had no in between!

Mine arrives today bewteen 1pm and 2pm. Very much hope it includes the VR headset as there is no mention of it on the emails i have recieved.

Good price for the product.

Hmm, when i go into "My Account" on their website, it states N/A next to the "Free Gift" field..


Bit worrying :worried:

mine just got delivered, yes the vr headset came with it

Thank goodness for that. I was panicking at the thought of having to chase them up for it.

Other people who are receiving their phone today please confirm vr comes too. Many thanks.

Super excited

yeah its going straight on ebay :thumbsup:

Delivered. The VR is there. Sealed and seperate too, if you ever want to sell it.

I still haven't had an email/text from DPD giving my delivery slot.

Bought from mobiles.co.uk about 6 months ago and used code. Cashbook rejected. Hoping it goes through this time but not a problem if not.

Hi mate, only on their EE Max plans. which are a lot more expensive than this, £47.99 a month plus £9.99 up front. (no vr headset) However all plans on all networks can be used in the EU.

Delivered today, VR included. Happy days

Sorry, still can't find edit button. Was able to edit it when just posted, but not now, any ideas?

Same - mine just arrived today with the VR headset too - thanks op!

Gone up again

Hubby said mine has been delivered and, although he hasnt opened it, he thinks the VR headset is included as there's a big box so fingers crossed

Cant decide if to get it or not

Upfront now £120 With code as price gone up to £275 before code

Any tips on getting the best out of the vr head gear?

EXPIRE EXPIRE! Goodness me, does hitting the expire button do nothing?! 24 hours ago I pressed it and I can't be alone. The deal is done, or at the very least needs edited to reflect the ever spiraling price.

Still brought it even with the price increase

Direct with EE retentions. To be honest I had to do quite a lot of haggling mentioning mobilephonedirect Three contract for £36 a month with 30G of data. Also had a £6 loyalty discount. Normally they would apply if you have been with them for few years.

Its not a battle. Its easy. Just say you dont lime it or its too expensive. Sometimes they are even ready to refund your upfront cost if you paid any just to hold you on.

I tried to edit it because even with £35 increase it's still an OK deal, can't find a button to do it though.

Mate I've 21 of loyalty and was told loyalty is only on existing accounts and can't be carried forward on upgrades.

I've asked for my Pac code and duly got it.

Turned up today awesome, love the akg earphones too cheers op. My old xiaomi max came back to life too lol

I'm on the £4.99(after cashback) mobiles.co.uk deal (7gb data and more than I need minutes etc) need to change my Vodafone smart ultra 6 mobile which is 2+ years old now and running out of storage and poor camera.... Wondering if it's worth buying this contract and not using the new number until current contract expires in 6 months tinge or so and then move the number over... What do you guys think?? Or am I better off with a sub £500 Google pixel

Completely different classes of phone. Try comparing the Xiaomi with a Galaxy A5. Or compare the Galaxy S8 with a Xiaomi Mi6 which will set you back about £350-370

£450 for a Oneplus 5, plus £10pm (£240) minimum for a half decent simo contract. The gap between the flagship and the flagship killer is closing, so I reckon if you prefer the Samsung, what's an extra £100 over 2 years.

Decentio

How horrible are mobiles.co.uk...

I can't login to this website, when requesting the Id number, I still can't login, now retinitis to ring them (off what looks like a premium rate number) lines are busy!..

Ridiculous. I can't wait to arrange the return of the phone, and see the back of this company.

I went for the trade in iphone option in the end on this site that way i got the color i wanted at a great price £20 a month as keeping my sim ...

anyone know when this deal expires?

I need more time to mull and decide!!!!! :blush:

This or the pixel or just wait for another?!?!

My main preference would be the best camera but different reviews say different things!

Pixel voucher deal finishes at 5pm so best get deciding!

Hi, I'm a total idiot when it comes to the phone upgrade. Is it possible for someone to tell me what to do to try and get a good upgrade deal on ee for the galaxy s8?

Last time I upgraded through carphone warehouse and I pay £33.20 a month for 5gb and unlimited calls and texts, nobody calls or texts anymore!

Could someone give me a wee clue on what to do to avoid feeling ripped off please?

Oh right. I thought that would result in it being rejected?

Just on a side note EE always rejects my applications for a contract lol.. I have a 99.99% credit rating I subscribe to experian and have never had a issue with any form of credit ccj late payments nothing. Never been rejected for credit accounts etc from any company have own my own home etc etc.

Just annoying really, I have 2 contracts with three and another just taken out with ID mobile. Just tad annoying really but hey ho there is lots of other options. Just love to know what beef EE has with me lol.

Did anyone who purchased actually register with the company whilst going through the purchasing procedure?...

For the life of me I can't remember registering, and now that I've purchased the phone, and before having it delivered realised I'd made a mistake and return it as soon as I get delivery.

TO return the phone, I need to access my online account with the company, but I just can't do so. Does/is anyone have the same issue?

Still haven't decided if to buy it of this site or to accept the deal I got offered by Vodafone today.

£39 a month for Unlimited calls & texts plus 16gb data and £10 upfront cost for two years.

Reason why I haven't bought the deal on that site is I haven't used them before or heard of them, so not sure how reliable they are compared to the Network companies.

Did you already open the phone box? Did they ask if it was opened? What about the vr headset? Did they ask you if it was opened? I might try this myself.

-
-
-

hope thats of help, why do you want to return/cancel if you dont mind me asking? (they also ask you this, i just said i cant afford it)

Thanks for your reply. I am also starting to regret it as I don't think really need the phone.

aye, no worries, i would say anyone with an S6 or below or new to Android to get it, its the best around and looks nice, but inside its not far different to an S7 for me.

So I got my phone bill through from EE and it looks like I've been put on the 2GB data plan which works out to be £22.99 a month :astonished:

I've tried to register my account on the EE website but it keeps error'ing!!
Anyone else been able to successfully do this?

I've tried it on the ee app and it works fine. Try that.

is all good but for those who like to roam, Three are the only network committed to retaining Feel at Home in the EU regardless of the outcome of Brexit negotiations.

this deal is now free handset up front with code s8payday...

cheeky eh

thanks, i didnt think of that. will download the app now :smile:

yes that is very cheeky :disappointed:

I have dropped on this now
Does ayone know if the phone Is unlocked as fancy putting another sim card in it

I'm going to call them tonight and see if i can get the upfront cost back. if not then i'll cancel the contract and rebuy it

yep

Let us know how it goes

Just to let you know phone has despatched and seems to have gone through for £27.99 and free phone

how would it work trying for that deal if I'm already an ee customer?

will do, I didnt get time to call last night but will try tonight :thumbsup:

OK just tried to get the upfront cost refunded and they weren't having it. I don't think it will work if your phone has been used as that's the only way they will accept a refund.

Code s8payday isn't working for me?

so...I told a few people about this "free phone glitch" at work and they bought it.
Friday night, they start getting phone calls to say that it was an error on their part and they cant honour the free phone but they're happy to knock off £50 off the price of the phone meaning people only pay £100. This was met with a big fat no, as you can imagine but as it was Friday night, the managers had gone home so people are now waiting for a call back with a counter offer. just thought i'd let people know

interesting and laughable, surely you'd just refuse?
anyway, anyone know how long they take to process a return?

Update on this...They've honoured the glitch and he'll receive the phone tomorrow. This happened to only 1 collegue as he requested the phone to be delivered in a few days rather than next day, the other guy got his phone the next day with no questions asked :smile:

Fair play :smile:

So did a lot of people get this free?

I ordered thurs expecting delivery Friday.they called to advise no can do. Ended up after a bit of chasing saying final offer £75 on the same deal with the vr. Came today.

Anyone got a suggestion for a decent screen protector for the S8? Struggling to find one that has good reviews

Yeah I gave up the poxy things kept lifting off and touching my spigen case.. Don't think you will find one I couldn't.
I'm going bareback :joy:‌ :joy:
