    How much does it cost to call them on that number? It's not one I'm familiar with and it's not listed on their website.
    They have got a nice new flash intro page though stating recommended by MSE!!
    Cheeky b@stards, I wouldn't recommend them so far based on this!

    Sorry if I'm being over cautious, but I'm a little suspicious of our friend Chuck44 and his espousal of mazumamobile....

    Be careful folks.

    Hello all
    I have had to go buy a new one when the ear-hook thingy of my Nokia one cracked - as Nokia models now are a lot smaller and sleeker, the helpful perkin at Carphone Warehouse cheerfully informed me it would probably cost more to try and run down a new hook thingy. (hmm... hard sell? Didn't work love - I bought their cheapest Motorola universal headset rather than the Nokia bottom range £99.99 model... £70 saved!)

    Anyhoo... while I was reading the bumpf to get the new one working, it did mention that with all products with rechargeable batteries, it would need to be disposed of/recycled properly - does anyone know if any companies take these and provide the same kind of recycling service?

    Many thanks - BTW - still waiting for envirofone to get back to me with my cheques for 2 old Nokia dinosaurs... only £5.99 but every little helps eh?!

    Tesco is 500 points if the phone switches on

    Else 100 points

    Great for me as my old phone works but is ancient.
    Worth nothing elsewhere.

    500 pts = £20 in clubcard deals does it not

    Do you just take the phones into your local store or do you have to send them off?
    I think they take old inkjet cartridges too!
