If it has a large O2 symbol at the top of the bill then its a large turbo...
James, go with 3. Then I can reccomend you as a friend & we both get £30 
3 are shit, go with vodaofne and i'll even give you the £25 i get from it (cos of the golf of course  ) so that would be £50

Went into phones4u and got a brand new sony phone with a good contract, more calls and more txts etc and £80 cash to pay off my vodafone contract..On 3 tarif.
can't argue with that.
I'm gonna report P4U for that

They shouldn't be doing that though, cheeky beggars!! We recently unceremonously dumped Carphone Warehosue as a retailer of new contracts because they were doing things like that and basically not serviong us very well... about to start a trend as well as other networks are lookign to do similar things!

They are allowed to do that actually
Carphone are the biggest independant company in the UK, they stopped selling Vodafone offically when Vodafone spat the dummy out. Fact is that they stopped selling Vodafone because they weren't as good as the other networks (profit wise). Carphone have NEVER done cash in hand deals
Whats so shit about 3 anyway? I always said I'd never go with them but they've been great so far! Get lots for my money & the services are better than any other network I've been on (I've been with all the Networks excluding Virgin)

No dude, we cut their contract, not the other way round... all the other networks had been trying to do this for ages and didnt have the balls to... everyone else will follow suit over the next year or so... I hate 3 cos of the experience i had when i used them back when they started up but i only say they r shit now to wind you up

Orange hasnt been mentioned
Only thing with 3 is you need to live in a big city or near one to get the benefits. If you live in a small town in the NE of Scotland you dont get an awful lot
By that im meaning 3G etc, the internet
