    Yeah i know i put it in the basket to ask the question, i havn't ordered or anything, it's too expensive for me because you have to pay up front.

    but as the shopping basket is empty no-one knows what phone you had in it to say if it was a good deal or not :confused:

    This is a better offer for the same phone on the same network:

    On the crossnet 120, could i just pay line rental and never use the phone? you see what i was going to do is order and then switch sim cards on my phone and my daughters.

    So i put my contract sim card into the new V3 and still pay my usual contract with 02 and put the V3 sim card into my daughters phone. You see she puts in about £20 a month anyway, so even though i get billed for the Crossnet 120, she would give me the £25 a month and i reimburse her when they send my rebate back.

    Will i be allowed to do this?

    Sounds a tad complex, but yes, in theory, you could do that. The only thing you need be concerned about is whether the new handset is unlocked so that you can put your SIM in it.

    Do you get unlocking codes for the V3?

    Mind you, i'm not thinking about the calls/texts she'd have to pay for :rolleyes:

    I just want the phone, but can't afford what it costs :mad:
