Free display dock with 950 purchase question

[Aneres11]

Hey everyone

Apologies for asking a probable silly question, but I am thinking of purchasing a Lumia 950 (mainly for Continuum features) and was drawn in with the free Display Dock offer that Microsoft had running.

Register your phone, download an app and claim your free dock.

However, it apparently ended 30th June (UK), does anyone know if they've kept it going or is it done, finished never to be seen again?

I really was ready to pull the trigger to order one today, but now I feel a little disheartened at needing to spend on the Office package and the display dock to get the use of Continuum.

Thanks in advance.

Buy it today from the MS Store, you'll get your free dock

If not, just buy the phone at a later date and get a dock off eBay.

Ahh it's an upgrade on my phone line, so I wasn't planning to buy it outright.
It's going to be used as more of a business device.
As an interior designer it's good to have a device with a strong camera, and being able to note stuff down on the phone on the go, and take photos on the device, then place them into mood boards / proposals / use the images of work completed for social media accounts via Continuum would be the main sell.

I just don't really want to have to fork out for the dock separately! Thanks for replies.

Maybe you can use a cheaper USB-C to HDMI adapter. Like this Cheap Continuum with an HDMI adapter for the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL | Windows Central

Or even a Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter V2. $50 USD still cheaper than the display dock.
