Yeah called up and they cant/wont cut the price on Iphones no matter what you have. Best I could get was £36 for unlimited everything and £109 for the 16GB.
They then offered the 16GB 4S for £26 per month with everything and £99 upfront which kind of tempted me.
Not really sure its worth going from £10 with a 3gs to £26 for the 4s but then £36 for the 5 is a joke
Best thing I can find in general is o2 pay them £250 then £26 a month for unlimited text/call/ 1gb net.
Effort.

My girl literally just upgraded to that £36pm iphone 5 tariff. £99 for the handset with Voda.
She already has an iphone 4 so could have kept the handset and lowered her to a cheaper tariff of just £10.50 a month for 600mins, unlimited texts and 500mb which is ample for her.
But no! She has to have the new iphone 5. Fucking dumb sheep.

Not being valued for my ability at work.Being expected to give too much with fuck all other than a paycheck in return.Putting up with egotistical stnuc who have no idea how a machine room should actually run.People banging the drum about efficiency's and then shackling the workforce to make sure this is pretty much impossible.Grrrrrr i need a new job that doesn't involve bellends in the workplace.
Even though I may have just disqualified myself by uploading this

tis a fucking tunee!

dude i used to work for T-Mob and in almost every case it doesn't really make much of a difference if you've been with em for 10 years or you're new they just can't discount certain deals. also because it's the new iphone they'll have customers coming out of their arsehole who will literally just pay however much it is. i seriously wouldn't expect the iphone 5 to be discounted at all for at least 6 months but quite possibly longer than that

What's the new job? If he hasn't contacted you by the time he said he was going to then give him a gentle chase, it's probably all fine but at least then you're showing you're keen

Yeah just give him a call tomorrow. He's probably just been busy like. How did they leave it at the end of the trial shift? Did he make an actual offer there and then?

Pissed off is the wrong term, but I just heard my uncle passed away.
Cheesy, but it does make you think.
