  • If you want to buy it online, it's been this price for a while now at Amazon.

    However, the E550 on TMobile might be a better buy from Woolies online @ £89.99 (+£3.95 for delivery) - this is effectively the replacement for the V500 with Video recording capabilities added.

    BTW, incase you're a little confused, the model number is network-specific:

    TMobile = E550, Orange = V545, Voda = V550

    Same phone, just a different network and model number.

    Although TMobile has an awful value PAYG tariff, you can use this phone with a Virgin SIM without the need to unlock it as VM runs on the TMobile network.

    Also, I would be surprised if Fresh and Easy Mobile don't also similarly work on this handset out of the box as they are also TMobile virtual networks.

    Between the three Virtuals mentioned above, you have some of the best PAYG tariffs currently available on the market.

    i have just bought one of these and i am very pleased with it so far. Havent had to much of a play as it has to go on charge for 4 hours, but as seen as my old sony t610 broke a couple of days ago (which was on orange payg) this was great. have called orange and all i had to do was use my old sim so no probs there either

    thanks op you have made me happy, even if mr divadee is a bit grumpy cos he had to get his wallet out :j

    it defo has got bluetooth as hubby and me managed to link up, but i can only get my bluetooth connection to stay on for 60secs using the find me mode.

    on my old phone (t610) you could just turn bluetooth on and leave it on constantly if you wanted, wondered wether you can with this.

    We just got a phone with charger, is this something missing. I aint into phones TBH I know bluetooth is wireless communications, but is there some sort of ear piece or something to come with it.
