    LG's are horrible phones :( I had one not so long ago, took it back (this was during the period of losing my iPhone and waiting for insurance to pay out on new one) :D
    I quite like them. The only thing I don't like about Crystal is that it doesn't use standard headphones, you have to put in their adapter cable thing first, then headphones into that - which is stupid, LG Arena you could put headphones straight in which I loved.

    The LG phones in general are basically Iphones without the apps, which I know some people have said an iphone without the apps is useless, but I wouldn't use half of that junk anyway - where did you park, use your phone as a Tesco clubcard etc...pointless! There are 2 apps I'd use I think - 1 being the Sky Sports one for football scores, and I can get that through the net anyway - and I can't remember the other app! Advantage is for my contract it's cheaper per month and actually has a decent allowance of minutes & texts, unlike my mate who pays £10 more for iphone of some sort and gets less to use than I do!

    I'm thinking of flogging this phone anyway, then buying a new one and going SIM Only when my contract runs out but I probably won't get anything decent for it, as I had to pay £50 excess so would need to get basically £250+ to make it worthwhile (so a new phone for ~300 would "cost" me about £100 of my money). So I'm thinking of trying to look after this phone :rotfl:and switching to SIM Only when my contract ends (October :( ) then just buying a sim free phone as and when I need a new one....

    Why? :cool:

    Does the Silver card give 0% BT or is it customer dependent?

    Yeah 0% Purchases three months and 0% balance transfers six months, for everyone :)

    It's just the follow on rates that differ ;)

    LOL yeah it's just another of many many many sygma mastercard brands.

    This one donates 1% of your spend to your selected charity (which they emboss on the card for you, too). The "Smug" card I suppose :o
