Hi, at the moment I have a sony ericsson t610. I hate it!

I only really use my phone for calls and texts, and I wouldnt call myself a frequent user. I dont spend a lot of time chatting or texting and perhaps use £5 of credit a month, if that.

Anyway, this phone is way too complicated and has too many features for me, so I want to downgrade really and just get something simple. However, I really like the look of flip phones. I wouldnt want anything too complex, just a basic decent looking flip phone.

Any ideas or recommendations?

Why not try that Sagem My C5-2. I had this phone for a few months and found it very easy to use and had no problems with it at all. I have since passed it on to another family member as I have now upgraded to Samsung E720. The Sagem C5-2 has the basic features you are looking for and is also quite stylish looking too. It is selling now for around £50 in some stores.

A review is here: http://www.mobile-review.com/review/sagem-c5-2-en.shtml
