Depends on where you are and the reception quality. At home here it recognises five channels buT can't play any of them. At my parents 20 miles away they all play perfectly like any normal TV.0 -
Some of you must have received your phone by now. How are you all finding it?
For the last few days all I've been doing is watching TV on it in my office!!!
Can't believe that people are now buying it for £19.99 refurbished.
I've just setup remote desktop access to my phone via my PC. ITs brilliant, although TV streaming is a bit jerky on the PC.
Ordered my phone cost £29.99 as the £19.99 offer is just for virgin staff now. Although if you make a call with the sim card you receive £10 credit so works out at £19.99 anyway0 -
As I understand it a Mini SD is different from a Micro SD. I have a micro SD in my Motorola and it is fingernail sized - much smaller than a sim card.
I think a Mini SD is about half the size of a normal MMC memory card and a little bigger than a sim card.Its better to be late in this life than early in the next one.

mjenn5,
Just got 3 refurbs and 2 sims no 200 minutes if the offer is when you buy online then I can't complain as I bought from customer services, still a bargain tho'.
RevSteve,
No mini SD will not work, must be Micro. could be worth contacting e-buyer as they also sell micro SD cards @ a reasonable price0 -

At £29.99, you get the refurb phone, with a sim with 200 minutes (and texts as well (- at least it was offered to me).
£19.99 gets you the refurb only - no sim (& £2.99 p&p).
Both are excellent bargains IMO.
I didn't get offered the 200 mins offer with a refurb £29.99. The guy I spoke too said it's only with new phones.0 -
Just on the phone to Virgin now they are so helpful!!!Money, money, money, must be funny....in a rich mans world.

Just bought the reconditioned, salesman told me that they had been giving out wrong information and the £19.99 re conditioned, and it is no longer available.
Got one for £29.99 and he waved the P & P for me. They are delivering to my work address before 12 on monday.
I'm gonna keep it for the 90 day free trial, then I may port my number over or unlock it. Or there is always ebay. Might end up getting another one if the OH sees it.!
Can anyone tell me if they have managed to get a free unlock code from virgin without buying a new phone, or pm me a link for the sofware.
As far as dab reception goes I know even though the website says we can't get it we can, we have dab already, so don't always trust the website.
Thanks op one of the best grabbits i've seen in ages.Money, money, money, must be funny....in a rich mans world.

I got a recon one for £19.99 + postage at 11.30 a.m. via 789 so that might still be worth trying.0
