thats one of the reasons i always choose the service providers choice in insurer as majority you have a new phone next day and virtually no hassle

Exactly, its worth the extra few quid for peace of mind. I know my bank offer free phoen insurance but they can't even operate the bank properly so I would have no faith in them managing my mobile phone insurance!

Ah right I only have the standard 3G.

Before going with one of the cheaper companies I would find out exactly what happens if you make a claim. I've heard rumours that some cheaper insurance companies make you fill out online claim forms, submt them and wait for decisions. Not exactly practical when you need your phone immediately.

Id go with o2 tbh, i find the signal i get with orange is a load of crap and get better coverage on o2 so have been with them for a fair while and when i get a new contract in the new year will most likely stick with them.

When I am outside in Liverpool the 02 3G reception is brilliant. However when I am inside any building whether that be my house, friends houses, pubs or shops I generally lose the 3G. Its really annoying because I always want to check things in the pub and in bed!

My friend ordered an orange 3GS the other day and Ive just broke the news. Hes not very happy!

....And Vodafone will probably take it a step further as they consider a pawltry 500mb to be "unlimited" data

   I am sticking with o2 , they are unbeatable as far as the Data bundle goes IMO. and I don't tend to suffer from the coverage issues that some report.

   I am already a Vodafone customer(HTC Magic ) and TBH I find Vodafone 3G coverage pretty appalling compared to o2's (which seems to be the opposite of most peoples findings.

Guys orange have released prices they are the SAME as o2! however orange's "unlimeted internet" is limited to 750mb where o2 is 3gb so i think i will be sayin bbye to orange next week as that is a piss take!

Apple have held the prices artificially high, thus negating any potential savings passed on by the mobile phone companies themselves.

Orange will be same price FOR NOW, as there is enough interest in the phone just being on orange. They will sell just because its a different network. I think eventually the price will go down when voda, three or whoever eventually get it.

But that could be a while off yet, its more likely that apple have told orange what to charge for it.

Orange's phone pricing is going to be exaclty the same as O2's. I read a review which claimed it will be a whole £0.11p cheaper!

There all a bunch of crooks mobile phone operators O2 and orange seem to be the worse but Orange have a poor reception area and the vast majority of complaints my mam deals with are to do with orange lol make of that what you will

Your entitled to your own opinion, but 02 are a bunch of thiefs. They make all their tarrifs crap so you basically have the choice of 1.
With the palm pre they want you on a 24 month deal so the phone isn't free unless you go for that deal - or its a crap banding for the shop so they dont make any money on selling it.

Don't like 02 but then its not my phone, i would wait and see what voda and orange do to the price of the iphone

well to be honest i do prefer actually dealing with O2 from my experience i have been with orange for like 10 years now for mobile

i have broadband with O2 and now i have mobile with them, i get my Broadband cheaper aswell now due to multi product , and also the knowledge if i do have a problem their customer service is alot better than orange in my experience so far

im happy with my choice
