'Phone unlocking - How much £?
Hubby has an ancient Nokia 1100, which still works fine, but he want to change network as it has very poor reception where he works. Its currently locked to Orange. How much does it cost to unlock a 'phone? Never had to do this before, and wonder if it is worth it, but he's a real technophobe and doesn't really want to…

Sale of Goods act vs Vodafone
Can anyone tell me of a clause in the Sale of Goods act that exempts Vodafone from their legal responsibilities? My iPhone 3GS stopped working after 20 months (error code 1611-Hardware fault). It's been perfectly well looked after, never dropped, never got wet and I'm locked into a 24 month contract. Vodafone customer…

4G interference
I was reading this article and http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-17125468 says that people close to 4G masts will need a box and those really close may not even be able to have any kind of digital signal. What kind of range are we talking about? I have 3 macro sites near me (Vodafone, O2 and Orange) in Norwich (So will…

Hello There I am being alerted by credit expert about Vodafone opening up a new credit account on my name on 16/01/2012. This is incorrect as I am not a customer of vodafone. Initially i ordered a sim only monthly contract but has cancelled it well within the 7 days period. First time, they didn't cancelled so i called…

iPhones, micro SIMs and normal SIMs
Hi I'm looking at getting an iPhone 4 outright (either from 3 for £400 or unlocked from Apple for £429). I know with a Blackberry you need to have a "Blackberry" contract or add-on. Is it the same with iPhones? Or can I buy any SIM only deal, cut the SIM down to micro size, and use that? Micro SIM deals aren't so good…

Best cheap android phone ?
Hi people, Right, having shopped around and got a really good contract deal for myself on a Galaxy s2. I now have to find a replacement for my son, who seems to have caused some minor damage to his mobile, poking the stylus for it into the charging socket. That is a lesson learnt. It was a cheapo Alcatel OT-708 (£10 on O2…

O2say they don't offer advice on this as it it not their app. Is this reasonable? I've complained thro email have had several…

o2 webtext address book
According to o2, when a monthly billing account is closed the online account closes also so there would be no further access to the address book. It doesn't have an export facility. Mine contains many contacts - can anyone suggest a way of saving the contacts list? I'm aiming to move to Tesco SIM-only pre-pay - could the…

unemployed but would like a contract.
Tried to order a mobile phone through mobiles.co.uk today. As I am currently unemployed they said I can only have a sim only plan as they will not attempt to put a new unemployed customer on a 24 month contract. That is understandable and even commendable. They then told me that if I ordered a sim only pre payment monthly…

Serious Difficulties with Orange iPhone Unlock
I phoned up Orange and paid £20 to get my iPhone 3G unlocked around December 20th. I was told an unlocking code would be emailed to me. It was not. I was told this another three times until eventually, about a month later, the code was read to me over the phone with instructions on how to use it. They didn't work. Phoned…

Been charged for receiving texts?!
Help needed! I'm on a contract and never use more than my allowance of calls or minutes, so I was shocked when I just looked at my bank account and saw twice as much as expected taken by my network. I've checked my online account with my network and it looks like I've been charged £1.25 a go for receiving loads of texts.…

Anyone else having this issue or suggest a fix? The mail app on my iPhone (the default mail app) crashes whenever I try to send an email. I can open the app, check for emails, open a message, hit reply, but when I hit send the whole app just crashes, and when I go back in the reply I wrote disappears. It's not in drafts,…
