I would like to buy a basic camera phone at the cheapest possible price! I am currently on Virgin and would probably like to stay with them.

Any suggestions appreciated. Tx

  • Why not look at Virgin's website for the reconditioned PAYG phones. They generally are returns on their 28 day return policy and are in effect unused.

    If you don't require a simcard with it and have already registered a Virgin simcard on the site you will get it for £10 cheaper.

    Its also worth phoning as sometimes they will have a phone that isn't as yet on the website.

    I did have a quick look on their site - the cheap ones that I saw didn't seem to have an inbuilt camera??
  • It's difficult to get a decent cameraphone for under £50. Camera quality can be poor and only suitable for viewing on the phone itself. If you don't mind switching to a different network though (put you old number on voicemail to advise callers of your new one), suggest...
