    Or maybe call customer care, as what one customer gets for free could be €99 to you or me.....

    Called C Care and have been given conflicting info. One day the 4s is free, next day it's 149 + vat. I have seen 5's on Done Deal etc being sold by people who got them free as upgrades from 3 so just don't know what their story is. Just have to keep trying.

    yeah, keep ringing until you get somebody that offers you the 5 for free and proceed with the purchase there and then.

    or €490.77 (24mth) / €306.27 (18mth) for me, despite spending over 100 p/mth with them.

    I'm on a business saver account and apparently my tariff is so good that management have decided that anyone on the tariff has it too good and therefore have to pay through the nose for upgrades on decent phones.

    The vast majority of networks will give you a "free" iPhone 5 if you are on a tarriff approaching €100 per month, bad form from 3.
