Just an example - A dealer will receive over £600.00 in commission if you sign up for an Orange Panther contract.

We as consumers should know our value to the dealer when going into a shop to buy a new phone/contract.

Make sure you haggle. Although alot of shop salesmen won't have the authority to haggle in high street stores.

Make sure you speak to someone who can do a deal and not a 16 year old doing a saturday job. (you know the type spikey hair and a short fat tie).

Good luck.

if you sign up for a Panther £75 on 18mth yah...

but ) not many people sign up for that, and why go to an indy when you can go retail and get 1500 mins, unlimited texts and free off peak data?

you'd be stupid to do to an indy...

imo all indys should be shut down as they cant compete with retail and my view is they just mug people off.. CS is an indy is aybsmal imo..

indy - independent , as in independent retailer in this context

Don't worry, it took me ages to work out what 'IMHO' stood for in 'net speak! (I know 'indy' isn't net speak, just using 'imho' as an example of my daftness! )
