Best non smartphone?
I'm after a new mobile phone after my trusty 3 year old Sony Ericsson is showing signs of failing but I don't fancy one of these smartphones, for the simple reason they're too wide (to stick in a pocket along with other things like wallet/keys etc). Sure they're thinner than older mobiles but it's the width that I don't…

6 months later, my complaint has been dealt with by o2
This has been horrendously drawn out but finally it is done and I have my money back :D In February, my phone broke. I sent it to the o2 shop to be fixed and received a charge of £120 (plus £25 for a "replacement" phone for loan). I queried this as it was insured and knew the insurance would cover the repair to be told to…

Here's a bit of a head's up - Virgin are changing their mobile tarrifs quite substantially, seems to be for all existing and new customers as well (Although from a quick glance, I'm not sure if existing customers are simply able to "take advantage" of this by signing up to a new tariff, or if their tariff is being…

Blackberry Torch
Hi, Not sure if this should go here or not. When a BB is synch'd and/or backed up on the computer, are the files accessible when the phone is plugged in. The reason I ask is that I want some information (text messages and BBM's) from my husbands phone that I know has been there. He would not have deleted it because he is a…

Does BT mobile still work?
Heres a strange one. I have an old HTC mobile that came with a BT package mobile/TV/phone etc. I have not been with BT for years and found the old phone in the draw. I am sure I put a PAYG sim in it a while ago. So I charged it up and called my home phone, but got a message " you have no credit, please top up". Back into…

When is the best time to call for a deal?
I understand that calling for a PAC code is the best way to get a deal from a company, I tried this today, apart from that I actually was going to leave unless they gave me the same phone for the same price (three), but they said if I call back next week I will get it for cheaper as it is within the 38 days before the end…

Help in choosing a mobile phone please
I own 2 Nokia 7600 and have been pleased with them. Due for contract renewal shortly. My sons who each have 2 Blackberry phones (work/play) both agree that a touch screen phone could not be mastered by this 'old fogey' too easily and suggest a qwerty type keyboard phone rather than touch screen. I like the Nokia keyboard…

Monumental mobile internet charges when abroad
I've just picked myself up off the floor having received a monthly phone bill from Orange that includes a charge of £800 for internet use whilst on a recent holiday in Turkey. Before going I purchased a bundle for 30mb for £15 from Orange, and whilst away I invariably accessed the internet via WiFi if various restaurants…

Dodgy iPhone on eBay
What do you guys think of this? Surely if this phone is in warranty, any eBay buyer would be able to take this into an Apple store no hassle and get it fixed/replaced free of charge? Something tells me though that this may not be that easy? Also, is it not a bit suspect that this guy has traded many iPhones in the past?
