    not sure if it will work or interest anyone but

    on e bay at the top of the screen in my account there is a banner that says order a FREE orange sim card and get £5 paid into you paypla acoount so i have done it not sure how long it will take for the £5 to appear but it didn't cost me anything so i thought it was worth a shot

    Thanks Jen, i just kept refreshing the home page until the orange banner came up.

    Good spot!:T
