Pay As You Go and HTC Desire
Hi Sorry for another HTC Desire thread, but I have not been able to find this question answered anywhere. If I buy an unlocked, sim-free HTC Desire, will I be able to use my current T-Mobile Pay As You Go sim card with it? I would not like to shell out £350+ on the phone, only to find that my sim card won't work and have…

Query about HTC Desire from Mobile Phones Direct
They seem to be the only retailer with stock at the moment. However their deals aren't the greatest. But they are offering the Desire for free on an 18 month contract with 300 mins, unlimited texts but no internet. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but surely I can either: a) Phone up and attempt to haggle to get the 3g, which…

Charged for receiving picture message on 3
Sorry me again. I'm having a mobile phone queries day. Just checked my 3 monthly bill and I've been charged 25p for a picture message. I haven't sent any pictures but a friend sent me one, so I'm assuming it costs 25p to receive a picture text? That seems a bit steep when I didn't ask for it. Is this right?

Orange PAYG - must I top up regularly?
I have an old phone on Orange PAYG that I keep for emergencies (like a flat battery on my main phone while travelling). I was under the impression that I only had to make or receive a call or text on it once every couple of months, so I send it a text from my other (contract) phone. I've just read on another thread that…

Hi, I'm struggling to decide between the two. I've been hanging off and waiting to get the Desire and now I've seen the Wildfire I'm wondering about it.

Old folks have let Voda PAYG expire
So elderly relatives only want their mobi for emergencies while on holiday. Unsurprisingly they've fallen foul of Voda's T&C regarding no billable use for 90 days and the SIM has been cancelled and PAYG credit snaffled up. Just wondering what peeps think is the best approach to Voda customer services, to at least get the…

Port from Orange through third party to Orange?
I think the answer to this is no - but thought I'd double check. I've currently got my phone with Orange, I'm looking to get a new deal and have discovered I can get a better deal (still with Orange) by shopping around. I've asked Orange but they can't beat it. Anyway, I'd really like to keep my number - can I do it? Or…
