Took out a contract with Tesco's for an iphone 4, dont really need an iphone so was going to sell it on ebay and keep using my old phone.
The Problem: Tesco's wont send out a normal sizes sim card, they also claimed that they can tell if your no longer using the phone from their end and they'll start billing you for data charges - i had intended to keep using my old blackberry but dont want to be charged for emails and internet obviously, so has anyone actually sold an iphone from Tesco's and used a different phone instead?

Who would sell their iphone 4, they are the beexzneez! are they not? ????
But it sounds like Tesco rep is spinning you a line, by the way some blackberry data services require access to the blackberry portal I believe.0 -
A Blackberry won't be able to use any BB specific service with the BB addon (normal data bundles won't work). All networks change an extra £5 for this.
They can tell what phone your using, everytime the phone connects the network logs the IMEI, from that they can tell which phone you're using.0 -
As said they can tell what phone and as such any data used on BB will be charged.
As for the sim card you can buy a microsim to standard sim adaptor from any phone shop/Internet for a couple of pound0 -
You are unlikely to get as much for the phone as you will pay out over the length of the contract.It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.0
