why don't you get it on orange you can on virgin vodafone and 3 so i think you can on orange to if you got a 3 one and use 3 you would get loads more use out of it then you would on orange
they are like rocking horse poo on orange!! i have tried 7 stores around my area for the last few weeks and nothing. i want to be able to put my orange contract sim in it, i was just wondering because there are some ones on the 3 network for sale at my local cex store.
never mind maybe ebay then....... i suppose i could buy it sim free with the money i get from my k800i.
cheers guys
sparky
because ive got my orange contract running for another 10 months and all my business contacts etc have the number! its not worth the aggro of running 2 phones plus paying for 2!
i was looking at their tariffs earlier actually! seem quite good, problem is i need to buy out of my orange contract! might give them a ring tomorrow to find out the price.....
i have also heard very good things about virgin mobile...

Strange, I walked into the Orange shop in Chester and got an N73 no problem. I'll also add that despite my initial fears about the phone so far, I have found it to be an excellent phone. Well pleased.
Witnessing how 3 have been shafting their customers lately with retrospective downgraging charges etc - I would not bother with them.
Customer Service is also dreadful. Just look and see how many High Street dealers are promoting 3 these days.... because they know about the feedback..... and the commisssion clawbacks due to returns...
It's unlikely 3 will be the same company by the end of this year.
Avoid!

Funny how 02, Orange, Vodafone and T-Mobile all have their own shops yet Carphone Warehhouse, Phones4U still sell them....
Upgrades on 3 are OK but that does not affect new customers who now have to commit to 12 months on a tariff and get charged £25 to downgrade thereafter. Sadly customer service is still much poorer than any other network and value for money is''nt great either when compared with others these days.
Best advice for an N73 or anything else - shop around.

Customer service for me has been ace.
Much better than o2 or orange IMO.
Don't avoid them folks, they did have a bad rep a while back but things have improved big time.
