Connect to Anytime Online 100 and you'll get 100 free texts messages every month for life and 100 free anytime minutes for just £18 a month.



Well £18 x 12months = £216
The phone sells on ebay for around £200
So it will only cost you £16 (say £20 with ebay seller fees!) you can have 100 free minutes and 100 texts every month for a year!!

Click Here to view, its at the bottom of page. (if the link does not work then click on the "Free Nokia 7610" picture on the right hand side of the "online store" page.)

It might not be the best deal out there but might help someone  :)

  • sellers fee of £4 on an item worth £200.....??

    5.25% final valuation fee = 10.50
    listing fees = approx £3-15.00 depending upon whether you have a reserve, feature plus, etc
    paypal = £10.00 or small amount for cheque, unless you live next door to a bank!

    I reckon about 13.50-35.50 to sell it.

  • Only downside of the online tariffs is that you cannot transfer your number >:(

  • Is it just me.. or isnt this an 18month contract making it a lot less desirable?

    Yes this is an 18 month contract, so i can see it being worth all the hassle.

    Thanks anyway!

    Afraid SH is correct and you are wrong. Voda Online tariffs requires you to have a new number..no PAC transfers. This is not the case for offline tariffs.

    "Currently, it is not possible for you to transfer your existing number from another service provider or network to Vodafone online"
  • So many phones on EBAY now -
  • Hi All,

    Before you buy, check the T & C's carefully,

    the weekend calls are only for 6 months, the 100 mins seem to be for landlines & mobile calls to vodaphone numbers.
    Also, as stated previously, this is for an 18 month contract!
    (I think I'll stick to the brick I have for now).

    However, If you do think this deal's good, why not go to the competitors & get them to price & package match... that way, at least you can ensure that you are using the same network that most of your friends & family are on & therefore, that you're really benefiting from the 100 inclusive minutes.

    Cheers :)
