i ordered a reconditioned philips 355 camera phone at www.virginmobile.co.uk for only £44. 99 with sim, philips handsfree, neck strap, charger and free next day delivery
the phone looks brand new and had not even one minor scratch or anything
you simply pop the sim card in the phone and it works! you automatically get £5 free top up that you can use straight away.
Virgin mobile is much cheaper than other networks too
when i got my o2 sim i put it in and you have to register and about 30 days later you get your £2.50 free talktime. Which on my sim never worked and when i tried to phone anyone it said i had no money! I then tried to top up a tenner...sadly that never worked either as i just happened to top up on the day that no one could top up due to the problems they were having. I was going to phone customer services but then i decided not to give them 50p a minute.
Apart from that if you manage to be problem free then look at the prices...Very Very Expensive! With virgin i asked a few questions on my phone by e-mailing them and got a helpful reply next day with o2 i e-mailed and they took about a week to reply telling me to phone them instead!
Its just a shame all my friends have o2! But i dont care now cos im sticking to virgin!
My second best operator has to be orange. they have good customer service but it too is quite expensive”
