Seems the price increase for UK mobiles on Orange has come into effect then, the cheapest P800 on talk400 is now £109.95 - I paid £24.95 last week - Im glad I bought it when I did!!

A P800 on about a 30quid contract is now around £300!!!!

I can't believe you guys are complaining!

Over here in Belgium there's no such thing as buying phones with contracts! If we want a new phone, we have to pay full price... And for the record: that's currently 830 euros...

Yup yup

I got mine last week for £25 as well

I wouldnt pay £110 for it.

800 Euros seems steep when you can get it from SE for £400

Belgium does not have contracts? That sounds pretty hard to believe. I personally think you mean that once you have a contract and want a new phone, you have to buy the phone seperately at the full price and transfer the SIM, or get a new contract (and number) at a reduced phone price and pay double monthly fees. This is about the same as in NL.

You're lucky if you happen to need a new contract when buying your P800, saves you a lot of money

Believe me if I say that there's no such thing as buying a new phone at special rates with contracts!

If you want a new phone or contract, you have to get them separately.

Try Thailand equivalent of 500 pounds, and no discounts. GB is still the only place where phones are subsidised by phone companies, I wish the rest of the world would catch on.
