Galaxy S7 deals
Hi all, Still going with my galaxy S5 on Sim only at the moment but considering either a sim free phone (maybe on interest free credit card) and sim only deal or a new pay monthly contract. I guess that with the S8 coming out in March the prices for the S7 might drop a little but the S6 has held strong... Anyway, I'm…

Vodafone selling information? How else did this nuisance caller get my number?
I have a 'throwaway' phone on Vodafone PAYG - I was told it was registered anonymously when I bought it so no details should be attached to it. The phone is purely for contacting one person, so it's not been used to sign up to anything. I just received a nuisance call on it (googled the number, its been reported as PPI…

Samsung repair scam

I know the driver, so I know he will verify it had no visible damage as I had kept it in a cover since getting it, and it was near pristine. I have…

Vodafone VEA discount
I have applied for this on behalf of my partner. A few questions I cannot find answers to: 1. Can I apply for the discount for more than one person? 2. I understand that the 30% discount is for 12/24 month contracts only, so if you take out a new contract and get a phone the discount is only 15%? 3. Does Vodafone confirm…

At Wits end with Motorola
Just over a month ago, charging via USB became intermittent and shortly after, impossible. I returned it to Motorola who quoted 3-4 days from receipt for a repair and it was under warranty. Over 23 days later, it was finally returned after they'd lost the paperwork, ignored my emails, told me they couldn't repair without…

Mobile phone contract upgrade - yet another scam?
Hi, at 12:30pm I was contacted by someone saying they are calling from Carphone Warehouse and they would like to upgrade my contract. The noise in the background sounded like a very busy call centre. As I am not a Carphone Warehouse customer I was curious why another company would want to upgrade my contract with O2. I was…

It doesn't need to be all singing, all dancing (so no smartphone capabilities) but it must have a built-in camera and needs to be simple to transfer any photos to the PC.
