    I nearly bought a cheap offer phone on network 3 then I read the small print.
    I think its the only PAYGO provider where unused credits expire after 30 days which means its only good for heavy users.
    If your a low user like me then get the cheap or free phone and get it unlocked (can cost as little as a fiver)
    Theres plenty of free sims available with other providers. See the free sim forum.

    Picked up a leaflet from Tesco ref 3G and cash credit top ups now don't have an expiry date.

  • It is a pretty awful phone. Very low spec. Read the reviews by googling it.
