hey, first post =]

i'm getting a desire at some point soon, and what i was wondering is, are the plans that are available on the t-mobile website cheaper than what you would find instore?

i was going to wait and see what the orange plans are like, but i don't really know how much longer i can wait to get my hands on a desire. And orange aren't usually cheap are they?
 
i dont know about in store but i just checked on T-mobile site and the cheapest contract is 10 pounds for 24 months and 164 pounds for the phone.
the plane includes internet, 100 min and 100 texts.

I think thats a pretty good deal as a sim free phone is around 390 and this plan would cost you 404 including all the internet, talking minutes etc.
 
good for you.
I am stuck with orange for another 10-11 months sim only contract.

And i have a samsung jet - which i dislike very much.
 
ha yeah i'm just coming to the end of my orange contract, had a SE w595
so this should be a nice step up the ladder
 
ya.
i am even ready to buy myself out of the contract but selling samsung jet could be a problem.
I hate the user interface on samsung jet and the pressure sensitive screen ..grrr
 
haha nice
i have got the money to buy htc desire but i dont think my parents would let me as i bought samsung jet like 6-7 months ago.
 
I doubt you can beat t-mobiles offering with an orange deal. I pay more to stay with orange, but you have to take into account other things, like with orange i save about
 
I would love to move away from Orange to a better data package but I have the free home broadband which breaks any other deal. Plus like Lekky I make good use of Orange Wednesdays.

I am surprised that Orange are attracting any new smartphone customers.
 
To be fair they do have an awesome 3G network coverage.

But it shouldn't matter soon anyway because Orange have bought t-mobile. Within 2 years all t-mobile customers will be with Orange, and I'd expect orange and t-mobile to share their network well before then..
 
so i went down to t-mobile
all the stores in Manchester were out of stock and won't be getting any until Wednesday
i guess it will be just as fast to order one from the website in that case?

also,
i thought orange were supposed to be releasing the desire on the 2nd?
theres nothing on the website atall

Yeah mine dont end till July but I can upgrade from next week, at least that gives them till mid april to bring it out when the original announcement was for early april. :rolleyes:

would you be willing to buy the rest of your contract out instead of waiting?
 
yeah, thats what i was planning to do.
if i can get a decent enough offer out of them anyway.

if not i'll just let it finish and get a contract with t-mobile as soon as.
i only have one bill left to pay for on my orange contract so thats only 20quid

might give orange untill friday. if its not out by then i'm jumping ship =]
