Nokia 6280 on '3' - Free Phone, Free 12m Contract

lkoky

Just a word of warning on getting memory card.

I just bought one 1GB Kingston miniSD card from mymemory.com, and 6280 refuse to play ball. It just cant see the memory card

THe memory card work fine in my laptop thru a card reader.

Also I have problem in connecting 6280 to my laptop (PC Suite) via USB cable, can do it via IR though. Anyone else has similar connectivity problem?

I'm sending mine back. 3G coverage in my area is very poor and so is the battery life.

Ahhh...I just bought this memory card! .

I haven't tried it yet, but once my memory card gets delivered I will and let you know how it goes (if it works!)

One more thing, I ticked the box to get 3 free months phone insurance but didn't get any details of the company when I got my phone and sim. Will this come with the first months bill?

Pretty sure nokias take RS(Reduced Size)-MMC cards rather than miniSD cards. Also some nokias cannot read certain media due to low voltage. Those phones require dual voltage memory cards.

The first months bill will be from your network supplier and therefore will not include any information about the retailer who sold you the phone.

Hope that helps.

Hi

Could someone tell me exactly what I need to do to ensure I get the cash back?


Many thanks in advance.

Anyone had any cashback dealings with Phone Box Direct? If so, how did they go?

I just got one from http://www.coolnewmobile.co.uk/ and it is also on several other sites now. Phone arrived without headset or sim card as per other posters. Looks like I can sell the phone on ebay for £80 - £100 and I also signed up for the phone via Quidco - http://www.quidco.com netting another £35 !!

So a nice £115 - £135 profit or so plus free line rental and calls for the year
