Nokia 6610i £64.95 ARGOS Sale

Argos are selling the Nokia 6610i ( O2 network) for £64.95. Marked as half price but most stores sell for £90, so a £25 saving.

I can email you software to unlock it to your own sim

Selling on ebay for £75 upwards to £90 so might be a small profit here.

Argos will only sell you 2 phones.

Hope this helps.

    For those who are after a 6610i: there is an Orange version of this phone that is in much more plentiful stock than the O2 version. Have mine on reserve :D

    Link here

    Also, for the phone unlocking, a simple google search yields free software applications such as this. (I've not tried this one yet, but it seems similar to other unlocking code generators I've used in the past...)

    wow, and according to the preview of this post I now not only have a signature, but I am also called Simon. how entertaining!
  • Thanks for the link. Excuse my ignorance, is it simply a case of tapping in a few numbers ? Could you just explain the proceedure a little more for me please ? Ta
  • I went out and got one for my eldest daughter after she saw one being advertised for sale in Comet at £80. A good job that I did not get it there and then!

    As for unlocking, the site quoted on the link worked well for me. It's relatively easy to follow and have now unlocked my Nokia 6600 from the Orange network so that i can use a dual sim card holder with an O2 card as well.

    Hi, I got myself one of these from Tamworth where they had a few on Sunday.

    I unlocked it quite successfully with the number 7 code from here for free. Please note that this does not remove the O2 branding (which I don't fine offensive), but you can use ANY sim. Follow the directions on the site, but I promise you if I can do it, so can you.

    Hope that helps,

    Regards,

    White

    (PS now if anyone has any links to decent free tones/games.........)
  • Thanks for your help everyone !

    Hey Whitefiver, I grew up in Tamworth !! My parents are still there and that's where my phone's reserved too !!! Small world !
