The customer is king, it is said. Well, the customer is not only the king, but the queen and probably the almighty as well. At least this seems to be case in the mobile phone industry in the United Kingdom.
In the UK, an already overcrowded market where everyone is jostling for space, a progressive telecom policy, a very sound infrastructure in terms of networks, and an over enthusiastic paying public all combined have ensured that the average prices of mobile phone handsets is the cheapest when compared to anywhere else in the world.
This brings to us the kind of deals that these network carriers O2, Orange, 3 Mobile, T-Mobile, Talk Mobile, Vodafone, and Virgin Mobile offer.
The networks offer for new handsets contract mobile phone deals, SIM free deals and Pay as You Go deals, Of these, the contract mobile phone deals are the most popular as they get you the handset (of most makes and models) for practically free in return for monthly payments of sums ranging from 10 to 45 for periods up to a maximum of two years.
Further, in order to keep ahead of its rivals, the networks in some cases, also offer free gifts along with the purchase of the mobile phone handset. The free gifts are in the form of 32 inches LCD television sets, laptops, DVDs, digital cameras, playstations, etc.
Sometimes, these free gifts with mobile phones also take the form of mobile phone accessories or even incentives such as some additional discounts extended to the customer over and beyond the stipulated amount.
The phenomena of giving free gifts with mobile phones, actually becomes for the valued customer a situation that is akin to having your cake and eating it too.
These free gifts with mobile phones are given away as part of pay as you go mobile phone deals also. Needless to mention, such deals where free gifts with mobile phones are gifted away make mobile phone handsets vanish from their store shelves in a jiffy.
