Reconditioned Phones - where, how much
I would appreciate your advice. My wish is to buy a mobile, hopefully an iPhone, for a very close friend. In truth it will have to be a reconditioned one, if only because I simply couldn’t afford a new one and my friend is in an even worse position!

Three increasing charges at end of contract?
I received an email from Three informing me that as my 12 month contract has ended they will no longer be able to offer me the price I'm currently paying (£11 a month).
