OH's new Nokia 5800 came with a new O2 sim with £10 credit but now it's used up he wants to use his other existing O2 sim. When it's in the phone, a small flashing envelope icon appears in the top right hand corner with a 'sim full' message. Only it's not. Far from it, there's only 18 numbers stored on it. How do we get…

Excellent complaint resolution from Orange PAYG
Apologies if this should be on the praise/vent board, but I thought it would be relevant to people wanting info about mobile phones.

Sorry if it's a stupid question but…

Mobile Phone Contracts
I am thinking of putting son on contract. Seen one from Virgin for £8.50 which seems to do the job but 18 month contract. I can't find anywhere though that tells me what happens if he loses the phone and I know he will lose the phone. I can see the advantages of contract but what are the disadvantages?

Inclusive text message from abroad - o2 only?
Having been offered some pretty poor deals by o2 retentions (as mentioned in the thread on that subject), I thought about what exactly it is that is keeping me them - other than the very attractive deals they've offered me in the past. As I'm abroad reasonably often, their policy for text messages from abroad (taken from…

Vodaphone offer the next-best thing, with 100 mins 500 texts £10/month. The gist of this post is that if I were to call Vodaphone up and tell them about Three's deal,…
