> W800i on Orange Upgrade - back in stock
Bookmark topic
I just had a call from Orange letting me know that they've got the W800i back in stock, ready to be sent out to complete my upgrade request.
The guy said W800i, but once during the conversation he said K750i, so I corrected him and he said "sorry, yeah the W800i"
I should be expecting my phone early next week. I wonder how much branding the W800i on Orange has, surely it'll still come in the plastic tube packaging? - or will Orange put it in one of their own crappy cardboard boxes?
Anyone else had a call today?

I got mine from Orange a couple of weeks ago. It comes in the proper packaging and doesn't seem thatt branded at all. The icons are the cool ones like on the K700 and there are no icons on the main screen like there was on the K700. Very nice!
I have to admit this has been my favourite phone yet and the novelty still hasn't worn off!
Yay for W800

Excellent! I was hoping for minimal branding since the phone is coloured orange anyway
I'm also upgrading from a K700i and considered the K750i when I saw a mate's silver vodafone one.

Do they not update the website, because it still says it is out of stock there?

I don't know about the website, perhaps it's the last place to get updated stock info. But I do remember being really annoyed that if I tried to get a deal as a new customer on the site, it didn't seem to say the W800i was out of stock.
Oh well, I just hope they send me the right phone

Hmm, got my w800 as an upgrade through orange. Ordered last friday (16th), and it was delivered on the 19th. Sadly I was in France so had to wait til tuesday to start playing! I guess they keep a stock and the website isn't updated that often.

Crafty buggers! I ordered my upgrade on the 12th and phoned every 3-4 days to check on stock. I asked what would happen about the new tariff they offered me and they said it would go onto my account on the next billing date after they get the phone in stock and contact me to tell me they're sending it.
Surprise surprise, my billing date is on the 22nd, and they phone me on the 23rd to tell me the phone is in

... meaning I pay more money for fewer minutes until the 22nd of October now..... as I said... crafty buggers!

Gooner Girl,
Looking to upgrade to one of these on Vodafone (can wait a few days). What sort of deal did you get? Any negotiating hints?
thanks for any thoughts
