Samsung Galaxy Y - £7.50/24m @ Mobiles.co.uk but only 27p via redemption £180.00
Not one for all, I know lots of people hate redemption deals, but if thats your thang then this is a stupidly cheap deal.
Samsung Galaxy Y on Talk Mobile
250 minutes
5000 texts
500Mb internet
Pay £7.50/month then claim back most of it by redemption, making it £1.53/month. Topcashback pay £30.30, so averages at 27p/month. Thats under £6.50 for the whole 2 years.
Sure its no S3, but would make a great kids handset.
EDIT: Make sure you choose the 99p line rental as your free gift, not the £30 cashback.
Thanks to blaster for the following:

If you're struggling with the above as there's some confusion on the website or you don't have the account number, ring 0800 049 1067, use Option 1, and they will cancel the insurance there and then (and send confirmation in the post). They then told me to ring 0844 499 4744 to cancel the technical support policy, which was confirmed over the phone. If you took out more than one phone contract, you'll only have one gadget policy per household apparently.

That said my 12 month contract for 400mins, 1000texts and 1GB data [per month] has only cost me £60 in total as I had TCB and sold the Desire S I got for free.
I am still a fan of redemption deals and will look at this one as it sounds very good.
Sadly posting redemption deals on here is a bit hit and miss to hot or cold. I am pleased that this is getting heat!!
It says you can port your existing number. When filling the form it asks for PAC and current network. I'm currently on lycamobile but it's not in the list of current network pop down list. What can be done to cope with this?
I downloaded CutePDF, then print the TalkMobile bill to that and upload the PDF as normal. Have been doing this for several TM contracts over the past couple of years, no probs.
I bring the headset to cex sell it for £50 (assuming it's unlocked) and I can stick the sim in my soon to be unlocked htc radar.
The I wait to get my £30.30 Top cash back and redeem £143.22 over the 24 month contract (in five payments) assuming I successfully send 5 emails.
Meaning this contract will cost me -£43.52? :)
For a little hassle it seems too good to be true!

Really like the idea of going on giff gaff (unlimited internet) but reception for o2 at my house is pants. On vodafone at the minute and it's usualable but not great, does anyone know if a Vodafone sure signal box would work with talk mobile.. I presume it's just the same but would love someone to clarify!
Port your number out to another network then port it back.
How do you do this, and is this the only way, no way of just keeping Talk mobile no?
I bring the headset to cex sell it for £50
Or sell it on ebay for £80 Buy it Now, like I did today :)

Anyone switching from an existing talkmobile Pay as You Go tariff?
I'm currently on Talkmobile's Pay as you go (Essentials) tariff. Would I also need to port my number to another network, or can I just give them a talkmobile PAC?
Thanks.

Haha tempting but once you factor in the paypal, listing ebay fees and postage + insurance how much of it's clear profit? I'm guessing 60-65quid?
Plus I'm a lazy sod, £50 would do nicely :p

Yeah, the fees are grim, 40p to list, £8.FVF, £3.16 Paypal fees, so clear just under 70 quid.

Not bad! but I'm afraid i'll still be taking the lazy option :)
Edit:

Are you Jimmy Savile?
no but i been saying now then for a very long time. im from up north you see
Firstly thanks to the OP for a great deal.
With regards to contacting them. I placed an order on Wednesday and got an email and text asking me to contact them on the 0871 number, when i called up they said that Talkmobile asked for a £50 deposit, refundable in 6 months. So it might be something similar.
Just had mine delivered and can confirm that my one was unlocked - used my giffgaff sim with no problems
Thanks to OP

Thanks! I sent them a message through Facebook, and within 10 minutes got a call from them. Apparently it was because I had placed 2 different orders, but given the same bank details for both (as we have joing account) which flags up some security check or something. Confirmed all the details and everything is fine - no deposit or further info required, and hopefully phones will arrive Monday.
Great deal - thanks again!

Thanks for that info. Ours will be going on ebay as we just wanted the contract. If the outer box is completely unbranded with any network info, can I safely assume that the phone inside is unlocked?
