Cheapest place to but a PAYG Mobile

madnis7

Hi everyone,

Am in the market to buy a new PAYG (Pay as you go) Mobile and was wondering of any tip or place to buy them. I'm looking in the £60-80 price range and what I would really like is a nokia with bluetooth and a camera. I looked at the Nokia 6020 cause my bro has it and it seems alright, although no bluetooth. Currently i have a LG 8318 and it does most of what i need but need to get away from LG, although i like the flip! Alos i have a O2 PAYG Sim card already, the one with 300 text a month. So i looked at the Sony Ericsson K700i at Argos for £75 and i looks pretty good. SO the questions are:

1.Any one know where to get these or better phones cheap.
2.Does any one have experience with these phone and what are they like or can you advise on a better one in the price range.

Thanks MSE's :money:

Try Nokia 6230, very good phone Bluetooth, camera and best of all it's a Nokia.

EBay has some nearly new for £70 but don't get an unlocked one, when the original issueing company does a search for it they will block it. Get one locked to O2 so that your sim card will go straight in.

Why would they search for it? Are you assuming that the original owner defaults?

For the OP - I had a K700i and it has some good features, though the jog-dial hasn't worked for months now. OH has a Nokia 6230i which is a nice phone, if you can find one at the right price.

How do you find the battert on the K700i. i read it's a bit of a drain? Also does it do speakerphone calls?
