Terrible news that P4U has gone into administration but does this mean that all pre-orders for the 6 have been lost?

That would be up to the administrators to decide if they were to keep the company trading or not.

In an administration it is likely that anyone who has paid a deposit for a sim free handset will join the list of creditors.

According to the telegraph report mobile contracts are unaffected but in reality it has yet to be decided whether upgrades and new contracts yet to be fulfilled will be honoured.

Dreadful news for 5596 employees and shows the ruthless world we are in.

Of course the mobile operators will likely blame the Regulators for forcing down costs to us customers and therefore reducing profits. BC Partners were looking at referring the matter to the OFT for a referral to the Competition Commission.

Expect contract prices to rise next year.

EE pulled out Friday night apparently....
Despite what we all thought of P4U this is not good from a competition point of view 😞

No we need as many independents as possible for competition and choice.

Really sad for the employees right now. Maybe someone who has pre-ordered an iphone 6 can keep us upto speed with any details they get or find out.

Absolutely terrible news. Regardless of their selling techniques, another once "great" company down the tubes. EE pulled out about a fortnight ago, but not much known out with the industry.

Lots of people will blame the networks for pulling out, but blame lies solely with Apple and Samsung for ramping up handset costs.
