Advice on a new phone
I am due an upgrade with vodaphone. I am presently on 600 minutes (and use them). Are there any good phones and deals anyone knows about. I am not very mobile phone savvy, I don't use all the features normally. I also pay £35 month.
I would appreciate any advice please.
Thanks

when you ring up go through to the disconnections people and tell them you're giving them a month's notice that you're leaving. they'll ask why and you can feed them some story about getting a better contract elsewhere.
they'll generally match or beat it in order to keep you with them.
be cheeky and negotiate!

If you don't use many phone features, and don't consider yourself very "mobile savvy", you probably don't need to be paying £35 a month. Haggle hard.
A SIM card with 750 minutes and unlimited texts, for example, with 500MB of data use thrown in, is available for £12 a month.
What are you looking at paying? What features do you want?0 -

Go for that or similar from Vodafone & go into Carphonewarehouse and buy a basic handset for under £50.00 You will be in profit within 3 months!
You would need to tell Voda that you wanted to convert to sim-only at the end of your contract to keep your number.0 -
I just want a phone without GPS, not too bothered about a camera really, would like to store some of my music and pix. Thats it realy, I don't need anything too techie lol.
