> Free P900 at CPW?
Bookmark topic
Hi Guys...........
Guess what, I work at CPW....and I regret to tell ya you're not completely wrong, but not completely right either.
Yes, you can get the handset free, on Your Plan 1000, £97,00 a month.
And right again, it does not say anywhere on your contract that you have to stay on that tariff for a certain period of time, but we were advised that as of 1 August, you had to retain a tariff for 6 months before you could switch down to a lower tariff.
T-Mobile also does not include the period of time on their contracts either, but I can tell you that is definitely set at 6 months as of 1 June, due to people abusing the backdoor of getting a good phone cheaper - but hey, who would'nt right? I say this just to prove that all the networks have tightend up on this policy, so be wary of it.
And its not that we would try to keep you on the higher tariff, it has nothing to do with us at all, and we have no benefit from you staying on the higher tariff, but we can only advise you on what we've been told, and that is that you can only change after 6 months, although like I said before, I could be terribly wrong. I have an Orange contact since February, but this was before the new rulings came into play, so I can still change my tariff every month.
Anyway, thats all I gotta say for now.
Hope this helps!
Cheers

nahh, you CAN get the p900 on 1000 and get the handset for free, then downgrade after the first month, orange dont' tie you down for a minimum period for your tariff and carphonewarehouse don't know whether the customer moves down tariff's or not, carphonewarehouse are the phone dealers, orange are the network providers, changing tariffs are network related queries

correction mate, I post facts, not stories.
Last I time I checked, my name wasn't Hans Christian Andersan!
Thats true Nk8, we don't know when the customer changes their tariff, cos that has nothing to do with us at all, but we advise customers on what we've been trained on, so if they wanna take out a £97 plan, on the assumption that they can change the tariff, and if they can't......
well......I would think that they'd be just a leeeetle bit peed off!
Thats because as far as I know, T-Mobile and Orange have changed their rulings on changing tariffs, but I think Orange 3 months rather than 6

yes you can, orange haven't changed their policy to 3 months, it's still monthly if you want,
you can buy the phone on £97 a month and get the handset free and then drop down after one month, you have to wait about a week for the first bill to be produced, then as soon as you've recieved it, you can phone up orange and tell them to leave a note on the account to change the tariff for the next month and they'll do it, and when you buy the phone, ask for world budle 5 and not 3, both are free for the first month so you might aswell get more out of it, (they have to activate it manually), and also, i had to fight my way to get the 150 free photo messages for 30 days which you will qualify for if you get it tomorrow, so ask about that too, and if they say you don't get it, argue them down coz it's an orange promo which you qualify for this and next month, ...other than that, orange are still 1 month and nothing else

Yes you should be able to return the phone in perfect condition within 14 days though you will be liable to pay any charges you incurr whilst you have the phone.
