Pips mum - they're brilliant :T well done you.

Angela - I don't need a jukebox :rotfl:or half the other things wretched phones got on it that I don't understand what to do with.................lol
Phone people rang me this afternoon..........had to take out battery and sim card, then replace it, then switch phone back on, then go to network and do it 'manual'.......made not a hapeworth of difference......bloomin thing.Told them I'll give it till Monday and if there's no difference I'll cancel contract. So, have toured vodafone site and got more confused than ever.............:eek:
Don't they make mobile phones any more that just let you make calls and texts ???? Seems not:mad:

mary op - i know how you feel, my partner wants a phone thats compact, rings loud, alerts you loudly when you have a text. and big enough font to read

and nothing else.

we went in 3, orange , v02 , odaphone, t-mobile &&& and they didnt know, they wouldnt even switch them on for him to see,

he rang the helpline, waste of time, they dont even speak english, he told them to stop reading from a script and listen, waste of time, in china they do "seniors" phones.

he could do with one of them....lol:T:rotfl::rotfl:

Mary and Susan - I have a really basic mobile (which I never use, emergency only) so they are around if anyone is looking for one. When I bought it the man in the shop had to show me how to switch on, make a call, and he was very patient LOL

mary-op

susan - put 'senior mobile phones' in your search engine and there's one comes up...........tis a bit big though -must admit I wouldn't want it -not yet a while anyway.

angela.............what sort did you get ? I've trawled round phone sites and they all seem to be 'all singing and dancing' ones.............all different sorts of ways to text..........-mind boggles

Anglea

Mary, it's a Samsung Orange, no idea what type.

mary-op

Angela - thanks. Orange network isn't good round here thats why I laughlingly changed to T mobile.............lol Was brilliant until now. I'll check samsung on the vodafone site........I know thats good coverage where I am.
