Nope you got me there

love you setup very clean

nice setup. I’ve got an old android tablet, iPad, 3 iphone (older models that still work) Note 8, Asus Transformer 10 inch notebook tablet, 15 work Notebook, ASUS ROG Gaming laptop, HP production desktop w/ dual monitors, about 15 different Anker products that I’ve collected over the last few years.

We agree you’re paying more money than you need to due to wanting to own a Samsung today.

You’re not getting, that I’m paying the same, even if I had my old Samsung.

The price of the handset is the same as if I’d bought direct from Samsung.

I cannot lose my number, as long as my cat lives


Molly here has a microchip, just incase she ever got loose. If I change my number, I can’t be called to say she’s been found.

To get free neutering and microchip, I had to sign up to a company, but I wasn’t allowed now or forever, to change my number.

The trouble with being on benefits/welfare is you don’t get good credit scores, even if you have no debt.

Many years ago, I had a number I’d managed to have for over 10+ years, but changing networks meant I lost it. They took so long to change me over, the PAC code ran out (only a 30 day life span to a PAC, at the end of which your old contract is cancelled n number deleted off the old system, and should be transferred to new system).

As I can’t go anywhere else, and I was faced with a year of paying the same as having a new phone… I thought I might as well have a new phone.

Gifgaff is a fantastic PAYG system (owned by O2 and I’m on O2) once this phone is paid for, I will stay with O2 but PAYG.

Trust me, when I say, I do my best to get as much value as I possible can in the circumstances.

So in-between, we treat ourselves if we can, we have probably 4 days out a year. We try to make what.little we have go as far as possible.

Why you’re so concerned over my financial state, I don’t know. Yes I may have mentioned it a few times in the 18+ months I’ve been on here, but you’ve mentioned it.more in the last week.

I don’t need a prof to tell me, I’m over paying for.my phone bill, but sometimes things are just what they are. We don’t all get the best every time, I’m sure you’ve over.paid for stuff or not gotten the best deal about.

I’d be a lot happier, if you’d drop this… Unless you’re going to do something … Other than keep going on about it

One of us is confused.

Why are you on contract rather than PAYG? From your numbers you are paying £1717.92 over 3 years. If you were to get a 2nd hand phone for say £100 and say a Giffgaff £8/month, you’d pay £388 over same period.

It seems as if you are hiding over £1400 of expense behind a contract. i get the fact you get a new Samsung phone but in your other posts you seem to be imply having to carefully budget. So I’m puzzled why you are paying £47.72/month when you could pay say £12/month, you like Samsung enough to pay £35/month more than say a 2nd hand phone on a low PAYG?

Molly here has a microchip, just incase she ever got loose. If I change my number, I can’t be called to say she’s been found.

Number porting is free.

The trouble with being on benefits/welfare is you don’t get good credit scores, even if you have no debt.

PAYG is lower cost, does not need credit check.

Because it is the internet. A logic flaw left unchecked can cause someone come here and fall for the same error.

Some are organized, some not.
But if it is fitting! :joy:

My old, lousy, comfort bed is waiting now and it fits!
Good night fellows…

You’re boring me over this, and losing any respect I had for you, over your OBSESSION.

What don’t you get? I was in a contract, bill was going up. Rather than pay same for an old phone, I upgraded to the same cost… I was already paying.

I don’t want to port my number cos last time I did it got lost in the system.

I’m very logical too, and sometimes things don’t make sense… Accept it. It’s not affecting you

Did you report it to Ofcom?

But where do you hide all the dust, crisps packets and Amazon boxes?

No I didn’t. I wasn’t as aware back then.

I am trying to clean up my desk at home, once done will take a neat pic with all the devices and stuff and post it :crossed_fingers:

… and now the penny drops.

This is why challenging people is good.

If two people disagree, one or both are wrong. If I am the carrying ignorance or fallacy, someone challenging me brings forward in time me being the smarter for it. The key is to share facts.

That’s a secret. even my beloved wife doesn’t know,.

Lets keep one of the last secrets of real husbands.
I will not deepen the discussion, because there are UNFORTUNATELY only a few ladies here ( I give those a big hug (nhi You feel it) !!!).
If telling, our beloved wife will find out one of the last secrets… :joy:

You have a cat?

I have some squirrels in the garden.
Those wont fit. :joy:
But they are carrying things vice and versa,
No boxes, might be nuts!

What you’re doing is called trolling. End of story

Thats a bit better someone with Macs, now we are talking!
