Hi there

A few months back, I heard an ad on the radio that Carphone Warehouse would be changing its name to the Cameraphone Warehouse. I take it they must have dropped that idea but it would make more sense having it as Cameraphone because carphones aren't very popular anymore.

Anyone know if they've dropped the idea or it's coming up soon?

i never heard that but on a leaflet from there a while back it was called 'cameraphone' warehouse because there was so many cameraphones 4 sale

they should change it to cameraphone warehouse

It was just a promotional thing

I noticed that all over continental Europe it's called The Phone House.

Even though mobile phones (or camera phones) appear to be carphonewarehouse's main product, their brand name is carphonewarehouse. Imagine the cost and trouble to change it, is it really worth it?

I couldn't imagine calling it The Phone House. Everyone knows it as The Carphone Warehouse. I don't even think of carphones when i think of it, i just think mobiles!

It's strange, it's a really strong brand and it never occurred to me until fairly recently that it's a total anachronism!

In the uk I doubt they would change the name to the phone house as there is already a national company with a very similar name
