    PS awaiting contact re my first A3 claim, anyone already done it?

    First I had the 'Claim approved here is your postage label' email from Alcatel go missing but their CS resent when I called after a week wondering what was happening and now I have had my old phone disappear in the mail - tracking shows only 'received at post office' then nothing else since 4th Jan :( . Apparently I can't claim for lost until 15 working days, just spoke to Alcatel and they said call in another week if they still haven't received it and they will think about what to do.

    I feel sorry for whoever pilfered it as I used the box of a much newer phone to send back a pretty busted up Orange San Francisco that must be 8 year sold and worth less than a fiver.

    I now have two others to claim for. I looked in the T&C, there is no mention of the trade in phones needing to be unlocked but I thought I had seen mention of it on here?
    I think....

    i think people miss interpreted the wording as it does say needs to be unlocked but i read it that there has to be no pin lock set

    Sorry you're feeling unwell :( Have you been tested for food poisoning? My friend had the same symptoms come on suddenly for several weeks (which are similar to my ibs/food intolerance ones) and I thought she would be diagnosed with that but no, food poisoning was the cause.

    Morning everyone :)

    No tests for food poisoning as noticed after Sunday lunch, very small portion I wAs ok, gluten free Yorkshire pudding ? Beef, veggies and gluten free gravy. DS4s dgf is gluten intolerant so already on menu. After late tea, one cheese topped bap with chicken filling, stomachs bloated within 10 minutes and pain started. Toast for breakfast starts it up as does a few other things. If I read th3 labels I’ll probably find that most of my purchases contain wheat :eek:

    Thank you for mentioning food poisoning though, as we did eat out a few weeks ago. No sickness involved. I’m keeping a close eye on the situation now xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Sadly I think they only have the winter categories double up and the summer cinema and PizzaExpress ones :(


    WE use a youtube wind and rain sound for sleeping, it actually really seems to help with falling and staying asleep.


    It is easier to afford a massive house when one spends hardly anything on groceries :)

    This is the first year I have had a fairly healthy Nectar balance - would you mind explaining how the Pizza thing works please ?

    Probably explained best here:
    https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/2-pizza-express-mains-or-2-vue-cinema-tickets-for-1000-nectar-points-from-19th-july-value-5-2731506
    1000 points worth £5 get you two pizza express mains normal price £10+ each although £5 each most of the time with O3 priority.

    Can anyone explain the easiest way to get started with wuntwo, is it like o3, request a free sim online, put it in (unlocked) phone to register for offer then go back to normal sim?
    I think....
