Basically im after 100 anytime any network mins, 50-100 text.
Dont want to spend no more than £20 a month
And i want a k750 for free if possible.
I am with vodafone atm paying £15 month for 100 mins 50 text and had the k700 for £30 a year ago.
Whats the best deals out there then guys? any websites u can recommend?
Will have to also keep my current vodafone number!

yea, gone over a bit 1 or 2 months to £20/m
At the end of the day, when i took the contract out k700's we going for £299.99 payg, the contract and phone only cost me £210 over the year lol!
Payg users are fools if they buy expensive £100-200 phones and use more than £10 in talk time a month

Its too early for retailers to be discounting the K750i
I very much doubt you would get one that cheap at the moment....

The PAC is valid for 30 days. The ball starts rolling when you give the new network your mobile number

cheers matey!
After mentioning PAC codes they offered me
100mins 50text £15/month £60 for phone, 12months
and the next guy offered me
100mins 50 text £15/m £25 for phone, 18 months.
Thing is on the vodaphone website they have a tariff
125mins 100 text £20/m, £50 for phone, 12 months.
Might phone them up and ask tell them ill have that contract only if u give me the phone for free otherwise im fukking off to a different network as i thought i was a valued customer

What they offered you is pretty good imo. But deffo take the 12 month option and pay the extra £35 because as far as I am aware if you take the 18 months you will not have a warranty for the last 6 months of your contract.
If you want to get it free at the moment it will be a £30 tariff.
If you get it direct from vodafone you may not be able to use mp3's as ringtones. With previous phones they have released under their own branding they have blocked this option so that you have to download them. Small price to pay though. This phone is awesome so go for it and have fun

Yea chris, my old k700 was branded 
Im deterimined to get this phone for free 
I think they would give me the phone for free if i went over my monthly bill, but in the last 12 months i may have only gone over the £15 3 times and i think thats their point, they cant make any profit from me, mwhahhaa
Cheers anyway guys!
