Soapsuds Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 With my vodafone contract finally up and me running a brick after loosing my decent phone a while back, i called them to see if they could match T-Mobiles current offer of 25% off their tarrifs on Flext........ No chance, couldnt even come close and wanted loads of money for a SE K800i....... so i ordered my PAC code and toddled off to the T-Mobile website...... Chose the tarrif, SE K800i for £50, filled in the info, popped in my direct debit details and completed the transaction at 5.20pm last night just before i left work. This morning at 07.30am, the postman delivered it....... Now THAT is customer service!!!!! Hope they are as efficeint when i come to transfer my number...... PS - phone review to come soon. Still trying to work out how to use it after my Nokia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I've just moved to T-Mobile from Orange. The transfer was seemless, I've been seriourly impressed with them and as you say they are so much cheaper than everyone else. Would be interested to see how you get on going forward.

Soapsuds Posted September 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 funny actually, i have just had Vodafone BACK on the phone to me to try and keep me...... they were saying i was daft moving to an 'inferior network' etc. etc. and i can have a free K800i now, but they cant get close on the line rental...... its £60 for the equivalent £20 Flext rental on T-Mobile!!!!!!! PS - i still think Voda are unbeatable on signal, but i now have the choice of T-Mobile GSM or 3G and also Orange on my works phone - i think i'll be ok!!! I said, thanks for the call, but i really wont be staying with you now as you implied im stupid for selecting T-Mobile..... feck off..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pascalbrown Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 But do T-Mobile offer an unlimited 3G Data Service? As far as I'm concerned, this is the only thing that Vodafone are good for. Only £45 a month for unlimited data via their 3G network. Connection Speeds are about 1.8Mb which is pretty good. As for Orange, what a waste of time. I will be leaving them at the first opportunity, which unfortunately is still 3 months away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 T-Mobile offer unlimited downloads via 3g for £7.50 I think it is, pretty darn fantastic if you ask me. They also going to be one of the first with the higher speed 3G early next year when the phones that support it also become avaliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] yea - if you go web'n'walk professional, it's £8.50/month ontop of their normal line rental (varies). I rarely use 3G anyway and got this 3g phone mainly because i liked the camera facility and i have a bulky DSLR style camera at home, so its good to use for normal snaps of chicks in tight jeans (oops - did i say that out loud!!! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Have T-Mobile myself, service is top notch apart from one aspect... coverage is crap! Just imagine a train running from London Liverpool Street headed SE up towards Chelmsford... After leaving the city itself and beyond Romford the Signal hits 0 until I arrive. Never seen this before in many many years. I get poor quality signals in the car also, especially on the M6 route upto Scotland, frustrating when you want to phone family with your ETA.
