Most of our handsets are available for free on pay monthly contracts. If your handset incurs a cost you will be billed by Mobiles.co.uk. You will receive you monthly line rental bills from your network provider. Please contact their Customer Service department for queries related to your bill or price plan.

Because of the high value of the mobile phones we send out, we can only despatch to your billing address or registered work address. This policy also helps reduce credit card fraud.

Mobile phone networks always bill a month in advance, so within a few days of getting your new mobile phone you should receive a bill for the coming month. Please be aware that your first bill maybe a pro-rata bill. Pro-rata means 'a portion'. Your bill will be pro-rated, where you will be charged a portion of your plan and receive a portion of your plans included value until your first bill date.

We are constantly updating our website with the current stock status of each mobile phone we sell, details of which can be found on the relevant handset page. We will also let you know via email if the situation has changed since playing your order. Turnover of stock is often extremely quick and this can mean on rare occasions our website may not be accurate.
