    Mine arrived today - mega quick delivery considering i only ordered at 4.30 yesterday

    Even came with a free virgin condom in the box!
    LOL! Have you seen the size of it!

    You are going to be disappointed if you save it for a "special" evening, ..... it is an advert for phone insurance.

    I refuse to comment on the grounds that i will make myself feel all inadequate.

    As for the phone, its ideal if all you wanna do is talk & txt (perfect for a technophobe Mum).
    Hmmmmmmm

    Received my £15.99 nokia 1100 yesterday, including £25 call time!! Thanks to whoever it was who spotted this.

    Despite the loophole being removed, these are still not exactly a bad deal at the legit price of £19.99 with £15 call time included.

    I was kicking myself for not ordering 2 before, but have got round it thanks to the Glue deal they do. Registered the phone we received yesterday and then phoned up to order another one for hubby.

    Under the Glue deal they give you £10 call time per person you introduce. Therefore the phone I bought for hubby effectively cost a tenner and includes £15 call time :)

    Thanks for that link and idea purplepatch. I got my hubby one so he could give me back the one he borrowed until 3 sort their problems out. Might recommend he gets another lol.

    It's that good I've kept it but I'm a technohobe Mum (thanks flowmeter) :D

    This is a question that's been bugging me and is obvious to everyone else I think :o but I don't mind asking the dumb questions - so ....

    why do people want phones unlocking? To get them on a cheaper network? :confused:

    There, I've asked now and feel much better for doing so :D

    I'm glad you asked that, I've got no idea - but then I'm a technophobe mum too!

    Also, technophobe grandpa now wants me to order him the same phone, so that's another tenner for me!

    So what I've done is keep the £20 voucher that came with the phone yesterday, and will put it onto the new phone when it arrives.

    The first phone will get this £20 glue money on it and already comes with a fiver on the sim. And there will still be a tenner voucher to use after all that...

    :D

    I know mobile phones are pretty disposable items these days, but this offer appears to get better and better :D It's a real moneysaver!
