Free Gift With New Phone

[BobbyBobBob]

I've found a website online that I haven't really heard of before. It basically offers a free Nintendo Wii u console when you sign up to a 24 month contract. The contract includes a new Samsung galaxy s3 mini ( which I was looking at before ) and the contract is 900 any time mins, unlimited texts and 1gb of data. Plus a magic number thing. The deal is with orange who I'm currently with. All this for £36 a month. The website is buy mobile phones. Net.

Has anybody heard of them before and know if they are legit?

I realise £36 a month is quite a lot over 24 months but I've been looking at getting the Wii u for a while and I like rt he sound of the phone. Plus I could just about afford it msybe , if I cut back on a few things.

Just want to know if people have heard of this before and know whether these sorts of deals turn out to be problematic?

Many thanks

£36 a month for 2 years is £864. That it a HUGE amount to pay for a phone over 2 years, particularly if you say you need to cut back on things to pay for it.

A Wi U is £240 (starter pack) leaving you over £600 for the phone.

Buy the Wii U outright and buy a cheaper phone.

have to agree: the phone companies do not just "give" things away, and if there's one thing you can guarantee is that they will not be out of pocket on the deal. IMHO 24 months is a very long time to be tied to a £35 contract - do you know what your work situation will be for sure? What would happen if your car/boiler broke down and you needed some extra money? It's never good to be just at your limit with spending. You could have £5k a month, but if you have outgoings of 5k, then the slightest little unexpected thing can push you over.
Do you actually spend 15 hrs on the phone each month?
