Nokia 6230i Cath Kidston White Sim Free

JonathanA

Ok, so I find out now that the above is what my wife would really, really like for Xmas. She is currently on a good tariff with Orange (one of the old Price match ones where she got them to match against the original Virgin phones that had no monthly line rental). Her normal monthly bills are about £8 or so, so I don't want to change contracts and she definitely wants to keep her number.

Does anyone know where I can get one of these phones at a competitive price. CPW seem to be advertising for £160 ish and I know time isn't on my side now, but any help to get the cost as low as possible would be gratefully received. Thanks in advance

The ck 6230i is sim free... purchase it on virgin the handset is unlocked anyways and will work with any simcard.

Hope this helps a little

thanks both - the quote i got was for the handset as a simfree - never thought of this route, which is much cheaper. Hopefully i'll now get some brownie points for Xmas - thanks again

I'd double check it is unlocked, I just got my wife one from CPW on Virgin, and it is locked to Virgin.

Whats odd is there are two 6230i 's advertised........ the O2 one is £69.95 but the orange one is £170???????? Are they the same phone....... Whats the catch????????/

Thanks all for the replies. Got a 6230i Cath Kidston yesterday from Carphone Warehouse on a PAYG tariff with Virgin - for £89.95, which includes £15 of airtime with Virgin. Got the phone home, checked it was unlocked - as I specifically told them it had to be - and it was! So hopefully one happy wife at Xmas means less stress for me!!

Happy Christmas!
