Cashback mobile phone deals could be banned

I had two phones on cash back... It sounded all good to beging with, then I had to send my last bill to claim the cash back and I got it back in return post saying that the addressee no longer in business.
The genuine ones (like major retailers) claim for cash back is so complex that you have to spend hours of your life to work it out and if you happen to forget or be on holiday at the time of sending your bills, you lose the claim. Not worth it !

Just read this story - last time I bought a new phone I considered getting one of these cashback deals through www.e2save.com. It was super cheap but when I looked at how complicated it was to get the the cash back I couldn't be bothered. My £25 a month deal with 02 may not be the bargain of the century but at least its straightforward.
