Just seen a pretty good deal for an XDAII here:

http://www.themobilerepublic.com/viewphone.asp?app=1&pcode=o2xda2&nid=2

£211 on a 30 p/m contract. and they offered £220 for my p800 if I part exchange it. I have sent off my order to them but since read quite a few people have not been happy with the service they offer.

They said they are going to deliver by the 7th of Feb, and so far have been very prompt and professional in replying to my questions so fingers crossed.

Has anyone had any good or bad dealings with this company? I am not really worried about losing my money as I paid by Credit Card and am fully covered but there is a seed of doubt in my head after reading the complaints.

Thanks

So are you confident that you will eventually get your phone or are you thinking of cancelling? Have they charged your credit card yet?

The phone was free so that is a bonus at least!
I sent them an e-mail this morning concerning delivery - still waiting for a reply...
i'll give them another week & then look elseware.....

(It might have been a one off case - who knows?)

Should have looked on the web about the complaints about them. There are loads!

Don't worry about it. I ordered something off them sept 03 and am still waiting. Best thing is I've since changed credit card companies (nov 03) so they can't do anything now. The phone was free anyway!
