Anyone know if this can be unlocked? We are all Virgin in our house!!

Its hard to unlock, Orange charges £20 to unlock

Unlocking is pretty much impossible without a combination of luck, skill and special equipment. Only go for this if you want to use it on Orange.

Agreed...................

From my understanding this is a pretty poor phone for those interested in PC links. There is no Bluetooth, no USB port, no way to exchange data with your PC.

May be a pretty poor phone but as a cheap one for the kids it's great - got one for my daughter in the last offer and it's fine. May get one for my son now.

Why not trade it in immediately with envirofone. http://www.envirofone.com/

If you have went through quidco and having only spent £4.99 net then you can trade it for £7.63 cash or £8.68 in Argos credit.

You only have to send the phone (Freepost envelope supplied foc) in order to obtain the credit. Do what you want with the remaining accessories. Ideal for those who wish to replace their current a62 and make a profit.

Remember going through quidco it's £5 per transaction, so don't buy 100 in 1 go expecting to make a great return. Perhaps doing it one at a time would suffice, but they may look like duplicate orders and your credit/debit card may reject such a transaction.

Don't forget that with Quidco you have to wait AGES for the £5 rebate - bought my daughter's phone at the start of January and expected payment date is ~April.

I believe you also have to register the sim card (need to call Orange) and then quite often have to submit a claim to get your £5.

This is only when buying direct from Orange. If you were to buy an Orange phone from Carphone Warehouse you would automatically get your £5.

I have found getting £5 from orange for PAYG phones via quidco very difficult (after 6 months for one & 3 months for another... still haven't been paid - and yes I have submitted a quidco enquiry!). So be prepared to actually pay £9.99 for the phone, not £4.99 as title suggests.
