Is this a scam or just a great deal??

Good deal.

Mobileshop are one of the better phone retailers when it comes to honouring cashback. Get your vouchers off on time, with the relevant bills, and they pay up, albeit anything up to six weeks later. Done a couple of 'twelve months free' with them before - had all the money back no problem. First time I've seen the 6111 on a twelve-monther though. Not a bad little phone.

 

RE: Good deal.

got mine through them. No problems at all.

 

Just filling it in. It wants you to select an insurance package of either £1.40 or £1.85 a week. Do you know if you can cancel it and keep the phone?

 

you can cancel within 14 days of notification</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 8.5pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma">The Sale of Goods Acts lay down several conditions that all goods sold by a trader must meet. The goods must be of satisfactory quality, as described and fit for purpose. Your statutory rights are limited which is why we offer insurance (not just an extended warranty) specially designed to protect your mobile phone (but not e.g. accessories or car kits) for up to 5 years, (with the first month free) against the risks of theft, accidental damage (including water damage) and breakdown whilst being used in the United Kingdom (and worldwide for a maximum of 30 days in any one year) by you as the person who purchased it or any of your parents, children, brothers and sisters (over the age of 18) who permanently live with you. Wherever there is reference to the insurer and their details in the site, please amend to read as follows: This Mobile Phone Insurance Cover is underwritten by Lloyd’s Syndicate 1231.

Jubilee Syndicate Management Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority and is entered on their register under number 226696.

Other Insurance (including some elements of household insurance) may be available for your mobile phone otherwise than from the insurer whose cover is offered on this site. Your mobile phone insurance will not be automatically terminated in the event of a claim being made; Like all policies, there are some things this insurance does not cover. Importantly these include; inappropriate use, breakdown which occurs during the manufacturer’s warranty period or due to abuse or wear and tear or gradual deterioration of the phone, cosmetic damage to the phone, loss of the phone, consequential loss, claims not accompanied by a Crime Reference Number, any claim made in excess of 30 days of the event, any claim form not returned within 30 days of the claim, and any claim where the user is under the age of 18. There is an excess of £25 on each and every claim except where your phone is connected to a 3G Network, where the excess is £50 on each and every claim. The maximum liability for any claim cannot exceed the replacement value of your phone. Theft claims will not be paid unless reported to the Police and your Network within 24 hours and if the theft is from an unattended vehicle unless the vehicle is locked and the phone is locked away and completely hidden, from unoccupied premises unless there is evidence of forced entry, from the person unless force, pick pocketing or threat of violence is used or if the theft is in a public place if you leave the phone unattended. You are required to take all reasonable precautions to protect the phone against theft or damage. <font size="4">Following your one months free insurance, premiums will be collected monthly by Direct Debit at £5.99 per month including any IPT and will continue by periods of one month (up to a maximum period of cover of 5 years) upon receipt of your monthly premiums.
