There are a bunch of them, such as at:-

Has anyone actually received the free Xbox, or is it a scam?

Please bear in mind that different retailers have different T&C's so always check their website to find out how to claim you free gift.
Hope this helps

Yeh you will get it if it states that you will
the way they make money on this is you are probs signing upto a contract which seems great, but check that after 3 months it doesnt balloon to 4x the amount for line rental and calls etc. Many may be enticed by 10£ a month line rental onyl to find call cost 60p a minute to landlines.
Nothing is free but look at it like this, if you need a contract, then this is a nice bonus, but if you went for a contract without this, you would find that the overall rates would be lower.
Good luck, and dont forget to ask the salepeople questions, make them feel uncomfortable, its their job to sell, not yours to buy.

It is a scam, but you will recieve your Xbox360.
Look at contracts without free gifts, they will be £300 - £400 cheaper overall, does your £199 xbox seem "free" now

Nothing is free in this world.
If its too good to be true them it almost certainly IS.
I believe you will recieve the Xbox but your 18 month contract will recoup the companys expenses

Check the fine print at the bottom, some require additional sign-ups with other companies. Like those sites where you can get a free ipod and so on, on the fine print it says when you sign up for other offers.
