My home Tech I purchased through MYBundle comes to an end in November , anyone know if you can apply for new Tech once it finishes ?

What is it? I have never been able to get into that bundle thing anyway.

TOTAL CON! if you want to keep it they'll give you a massive tax bill to pay!!

Not sure about a "CON" , I knew what I`d be paying back ...and it helped my son to get the computer he wanted for collage as couldn`t afford to buy outright , I thought it was a good scheme !?

As far as I know you can have 2 tech devices at the same time as long as you dont go over the wages sacrifice threshold (which was around £20-£25 a week). You can also have one phone on the go at the same time.
I have to agree with the “con” comment though. I bought an ipad and a phone through it and it’s going to end up costing me a lot more than just buying them outright, but then I couldn’t afford to buy them outright in the first place. I was looking at the scheme a week or two ago just for a nosey and priced a nintendo switch which would end up costing nearly £600 over the two years.

Def paid out through the ear for my ipad pro 12", if you can its probably better to buy outright or on as little % finance with someone else I guess.

However for me it's been brilliant, yes I'll prob have to pay out now in December when it ends for the tax fee to keep it but I've got a piece of tech I love and use every day for drawing and stuff.

Recently ordered a Sonos Play1 and Nintendo Switch controller.

Depending on your mybundle spend you should be able to add more items

My ipad is £10.84 per week
And Sonos Play1 plus Switch controller is another £2.72 or so

Tech 1
Tech 2

And I have a choice to add a third now. I think the weekly limit is £35

it may have worked out cheaper if you had got in on 0% finance

plus living with 2 years of being worried about even turning it on because they make such a big thing about 'you don't own it' is awful, but if it worked for you, that's good

Seriously? I'm paying through the nose for an iPad which ends next April. How much tax will I have to pay????

Yes , i was basically upto my limit on the scheme ....but what i`m asking is as it comes to an end in november and gets paid off , can you order more Tech or have they stopped the scheme ?

I should think so... They're currently updating the site. They have a livechat if you got to their website, you could ask them there?

Regarding the tax fee to keep stuff they enlmailed me this morning to say it would be £40-50 split over 12 months to keep my ipad pro
