Gays

I think it's a bit wrong that they totally remove them! It's nice to have a new phone every year

They've said I can have £17.50 discount off any plan, which means one works out at £2.50 a month. Where's the fucking sense in that


No idea what phone to get either!

the fact that they hardly build them to last is worrying too. The print on the back as already rubbed off of my c901 or whatever, shoddy, makes it look old.

Yes, I understand. But they're willing to take a total of £45 off me for 18 months of service & give me a phone. Crazy!!

About 2 months ago, watch for everyone else doign it shortly also... we are contemplating it.

Expect 24mth contracts to be big news in the enxt yr

Lets be honest, phones last a lot longer now and theres no need for a new phone every year
