Still haven't got my laptop fixed guys taking ages to sort it so think i'm just guna get a new one

Just looking for bit of advice,I was going to get a dongle for internet as having to have a phone line is pointless and just wondered is it worth me taking up the option of paying a bit extra and getting a free laptop.All i want it for is playing poker with HEM and going online.I seem to remember people saying vodafone are the best to go with is this still the case

Thanks

Those free laptops are a complete rip bud

Normally works out something like an extra £20 a month on your line rental for a minimum of 36 months and then they give you a £400 laptop.

Vodafone only seem to add on £5 on top of the normal price for the dongle on 18 month contract

You got a link Ray?
The standard rate might be a rip then? One of the girls at work wanted one and I went through all the offers she had and they all worked out that you could get a better deal if you bought the laptop seperately.

I might be wrong though. Its happened once before. But I was arguing with myself.

Possible my bad here. I have a dongle thats about 15 gig 8mbps for £12 a month.
I was using that as my starting point to work out how much they were actually charging for the 'free'
I didnt realise how much normal people have to pay for a dongle.
Ill be quiet
Gatso, I hate u!
