Rang T Mobile sales, had a very lengthy chat about the MDA Compact IV. Two weeks ago their coming soon section had it released for 30th June, after that the date changed to 1st July, then changed to just 'early July' - now it has been completely removed from the internal coming soon section and the staff have no idea what is going on. Doesnt look like a release is happening for some reason.

Looks like that could be Orange.
They have the phone listed on their site, £30 gets you 600 mins, unlimited texts, unlimited land line calls and unlimited data (500MB fair use)

Imagine the £££s in lost sales and contracts because of T Mobiles inability to set a release date and actually launch a phone

I got impatient then discovered the tmobile deals on the eXpansys site. Got the same contract as I had before and the phone cost me £75.

Very happy. I agree tho, altho the same thing happened to Orange to start with, they kept saying they were "testing" the phone and kept putting the date back, maybe they have had the same problems?

Just looked on the Orange site... they say the Diamond lasts 12days on standby!!!

Do Orange have tariffs that can compete with T-Mobile yet?

That £30 one doesnt sound bad, does the data include HDSPA? But with my discounts (one was a 25% off offer when I took out my contract and the other is a £10 loyalty thing) I get my Flext35 and WnW+ for like £23 a month. Suits me down to the ground!!

I was checking whether it pays more to take contract with expansys or with t-mobile with some good phone, flog it on ebay and then buy new diamond of the internet. Normally if you take contract with t-mobile you get £5 off, plus in June with plans of 35 or more you had additional 10% more if ordered online. And they offer new plans. Expansys offers old plans like £30 with £90 allowance, and £35 with £180 whereas t-mobile already has those plans with £140 and £200 of allowance respectively...
