    Since you have to buy it with £10 airtime from Orange, is it an 'Orange' phone that needs unlocking at the end of the credit time?

    Thanks.

    my housemate bought this phone last week instore for £3 (plus tenner for airtime) + even though it comes with an orange sim card it was able to take my t-mobile sim card so it may be unlocked/simfree
  • I ordered this on Monday last week when it was £2 more - still hasn't arrived. So much for next day delivery! :mad:

    Ah, I forgot about Orange Wednesdays!

    They'll be sending ME money for taking this phone off their hands next!:rotfl:

    This HAS to be one for the weekly e-mail, surely?

    The Nokia 1650 is free when you buy £30 of Orange pay as you go airtime. Envirofone are offering a handset trade in on that model of £5.99 and an extra £1.50 if you go via Quidco (more if you haven't used Envirofone before). If you buy the phone via Quidco you'd get the £5 Carphone Warehouse offer too so £30 of Orange airtime would cost £17.51.
