landline phones with sim readers by Stephen[_2_]
Hi, A few years ago I bought some land line phones that copied the names and numbers from a mobile sim, which was useful for caller display. I bought a corded BT relate 2100 and a DECT BT 6210. The thing is that they don't work with current sims but do work with old sims. I guess something must have changed with sim design since then? So I am looking for something that works with "new" sims,...

BT mobile phone - how do I get the balance by Les Desser
I have been given a BT mobile but it seems BT mobiles do not exist! I can find virtually nothing on the web nor on the BT web site about BT mobiles. Plenty about mobile Internet but nothing about phones. Calling 150 just gives you the regular land line 150. I want to find out my free minutes left on the monthly account. Thanks.

Number porting nightmare by Mark Scott
Why is porting a number so bl**dy difficult? I took out an O2 Simplicity contract for my son when he was too young do do this in his own right. Now that he is old enough, he naturally wants to have his own name on the contract. Apparently this is not possible. The number (account) can't be transferred to any other name, ostensibly because of credit checking concerns. However they can check...

Virgin - Excessive charge for Internet usage. by Michael Chare
I used my computer to access the Internet via my mobile for for a couple of weeks during August. For the first 15 days the charges appear to have been reasonable although I can't see the detail. On the 23rd of August the internet access stopped working in the evening. In the morning I got a text message to say that my credit limit (of £125) had been exceeded.

i-phone sim only by J B[_2_]
A friend & daughter are returning from the usa to live in the UK. They have i-phones which she is hoping to get AT&T to unlock for her - or would she be better going down the jailbreaking route? She is going to live in a house that has poor mobile coverage, but the best signal is from Vodafone. She will maybe need 100 mins and 100 txts and daughter with the same phone will need 100 mins and...

Advice on which way to go? by Victor Delta[_2_]
I currently have an O2 phone with a contract which has been running for years. It costs me about £120-150 per year but, as my needs have changed, I think I might be better off with a change to a PAYG now. Nowadays I use the mobile very little - perhaps only one short call per week, as it is basically only needed for emergency contact etc. The only time it gets much use is for keeping in...

Sound quality of different handsets by Scott[_2_]
This may be a simplistic question for the group, but is there much difference in performance between a cheap and an expensive handset? Obviously there is a big difference in functionality and features, such as camera, MP3 player, internet capability etc but does the handset have much influence on audio quality? I know for example there are difficulties with the new iPhone. I have bought a...

unlocking RAZR2 V8 by mellybelly
I have a RAZR2 V8 on contract on orange and I hate it. I've only had it a week so I'm thinking of selling it and buying a phone I actually like. How easy is it to unlock the RAZR2? And what reasonably priced phones have a reasonable camera and a document viewer (and ideally editor) that will view word docs? Ta

half-unlocked phone: vodafone and o2 but not t-mobile by Stephen[_4_]
Hi, I bought what I believed was an unlocked phone from carphone warehouse. A vodafone sim works in it and an o2 sim works in it but not a t-mobile sim. I tried another phone which came from asda. Same story: the t-mobile sim will not work in it but other sims do. When the t-mobile sim is used, the phone powers up but the "t-mobile"
