Its upgrade time. I'm currently on ED50 and have a monthly bill of ~£40, and £10-15 on 18866. I'm getting ****ed off with the lack of cross net calls, I'd prefer to ring the people cross net. I can't be bothered with the dial 0870 numbers overnight malarky to get points for cross net calls. So with that in mind I called 150 and asked for an upgrade "Nokia 7610 will cost £149.99 on your tariff"....

Nokia's website says Q4 2004. Vodafone's website says November 2004 Orange sales say that it isn't in product testing yet, so no way will they have them out before Christmas. Carphone warehouse doesn't list it, but says that the 9300 (Nokia.com says Q1 2005) will be out soon. Anyone know where I can get one from? My 9210 isn't working 100% any more and OrangeCare have "discontinued" it, and...

Just got my paws on one of these this morning. Although it's probably not that much different, it *feels* a lot smaller than the 9210. Corners are nicely rounded and the design of the phone isn't too insane, unlike a lot of Nokia's other recent phones. The phone screen is colour and high-resolution, but the menu still uses the "One menu option at a time on the screen" system. A simple list...

Spoke to Customer Services today (1st time) to discuss the problems with my original Orange Out Here package charging me for texts. The advisor I spoke to said that the Text billing platform went down on the 16th, but is now back & fully operational as from today. He offered to credit me for 4 days worth of messages (5 per day) - without checking to see if I had actually used up all 5 per day -...

Hi, Has anyone seen any good deals for these phones? Or does anyone know if there will be good deals appearing next month? Thanks, Ben

Hi, I'm planning to use Virgin as the middleman in a weird number keeping scheme! Please correct me if I've got this all wrong, but I'll explain what i'd like to do! My contract (with T-Mobile) expires in a few days, I have purchased a Virgin sim card so after my 12 months are officially up I can port the number over to Virgin.

thanks for all the info,just one more question if anyone can answer,If a mobile is to be tracked ,I presume you register the handset to allow tracking to take place,is it then tracked via the sim card or the imei no of the mobile,could tracking still be made if sim card was inserted in to a different mobile thanks for any replies Gordon "Gordon" wrote in...

can any reader explain in simple terms how systems that track the location of mobiles work,do they need grps, gps,special sim cards, special phones etc ,how accurate is the track ,etc thanks for any info Gordon

I got a sim card for o2 PAYG on-line with the 300 texts and 300 Wap Minutes at the same time as my missus. As I was on contract at the time I got given these sims mine was registered about 6 months after me missus's. She got the 300 Wap Minutes whilst I got the 1MB GPRS. I reckon she go the better deal. My sim card said I got the 300 wap mins. But I was getting charged for them after putting...

I took out a new contract with O2 with a K700i in mid August and subsequentley ordered insurance through their website at the start of November after reading it covered accidental damage as I can be a bit clumsy with my phone at times. My K700i since then has developed a fault where it will randomly crash and has also been dropped and I have lost both the side sets of buttons off the phone...

I just got a Sony-Ericsson Z200 from Virgin (re-conditioned, £40, good value I reckon), but I can't get the data-cable to work with it at all. The cable was bought off eBay, cheap but advertised to work with Z200, I'm now doubting its possible with this model of phone, after looking at clubsonyericsson.com forums. So, before I demand a refund on the cable, has anyone actually managed to get...

I am buying my son a mobile (his first) for his 15th birthday but know little about them. He is thinking of choosing the Nokia 7250i. It's easy to read the list of features but more difficult to know what we should ask about any model. Does anyone have any comments, good or bad, to offer on this one? Thanks, Stephen

Hi does anyone know where the best and cheapest place to get either the V220 (on Orange) or the Motorola V500 (on orange) payg thanks steve

From Three's website: (http://www.three.co.uk/explore/coverage/intIndex.omp) "Please note, unless you set up an "all Calls" divert before you leave the UK, you will be charged for receiving calls to your voicemail whilst you are abroad." Does anybody understand what this means? If I have my phone on whilst abroad but don't answer an incoming call, they charge me for the person talking to my

Could someone please post the O2 Online Customer Service number which was introduced a few months ago? I can't find it on their website. Thanx. AMO p.s. If you are on an online tariff I guess it doesn't matter if the 0870 numbers are dialled as these are inclusive right?

Anyone have any experience with this combination? The above phone is unlocked (permanent) yet will not swap between a 2G sim & 3G usim. I can maybe get it to choose the 2G when having first replaced the ghost and battery but on repeated switch off/on it will choose the 3G usim every time. I also tried the ghost with two 2G sims. This time it would switch but only one sim would work with the...

Got this phone on Saturday and am very impressed with it - took out a second contract, fed up with my broken Motorola and quite frankly didn't want another one. Anyhow... my question regards the software. Can I use it to send mp3s across to my phone? It seems to want to convert them and, when I do this, the converted version is much poorer quality and much, much quieter.

I have been receiving some very offensive text messages from 07905 017193 Whenever try to call the number back the phone is ALWAYS turned off How can I tell what network it is and if it is PAYG or contract Is there a way I can find anymore details ? Thanks

I've just got an SE T610 and I'm trying to sync it with my PC using Belkin USB Bluetooth. I cannot get the T610 to properly pair with the PC. I usually get a message saying 'Pairing failed' or 'Passkey Mismatch'. Or, if they do pair for a moment, I instantly get a message saying it's 'timed out'. I've Googled but cannot find anything that solves my problems. It seems there's a lot of T610...
