TescoMobile Wildfire Refurbished??
Options
Hi
I just got a TescoMobile Wildfire for £50 on their 12 month contract at £20.43/month 750min + text + data deal.
I just looked at the "about this phone" type details (cant remember exactly which button it was) and it shows a different mobile phone number to the one they issued me.
Does this mean the new Wildfires they are sending out are actually refurbs?
Thanks
Paul

wiki shows only two numbers:
HSPA/WCDMA:
900/2100 MHz (A3333)
850/2100 MHz (A3335);
I think both have GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz as well
Whatever this means...0 -
No
What I mean is that in Settings - About Phone - Phone Identity it shows a phone number for the phone which isnt actually the number Im using (ie what they gave me).

It's something to do with the sim, not the phone.
Even after porting my old number to the new sim my Desire still shows the original number that came with the sim.0
