Whats The Deal With True Iphone Promotion? Must Have A Credit Card To Purchase?

[davejonesbkk]

So I was looking at iphones in a True shop today and saw that they had a promo on for a 4s 16GB for 13,500, I asked one of the staff and she said I need to be a current True online, visions or mobile customer for 1 year already. No problem I said ive been on True online for over a year, she then gave me the whole sales pitch and the contract termsn, turns out you need to sign up for 18 months on the 899 package and need to pay the first 6 months up front along with the price of the phone, no problem to that either then.

Then when I go to pay she says can only pay by credit card and not cash! I told her I dont have a credit card and she says sorry you cant buy it then....<deleted>????!! I was ready and willing to pay for the phone and first 6 months in cash, why would they not let you pay in cash??

I dont understand why she never mentioned this at the start either...
