    Charged full whack on CC, but credited £25 so overall only paid £4.60.

    Arrived this afternoon. Slightly suspicious as the "If seal is broken item is void" sticker has been cut open, but another sticker has been placed over the top.

    A returned item? Hmm...


    Mine was exactly the same Alias7. One seal broken with void sticker. Not too happy bout that
    If I had words to make a day for you,
    I'd sing you a morning golden and new.
    I would make this day last for all time,
    Give you a night deep with moonshine.

    One of the Nokia Seals had been broken on mine but replaced with a T-Mobile sticker. I guess they break the nokia seal to put the T-mobile SIM and literature in the box.
  • i bought one from argos the other day that had one seal broken, but 2 other ones were intact.

    I ordered this mobile on the 28th December using the £25 code off

    I just checked my order and it has 'Expected Delivery date 02/01/2006' and has order status 'Order Accepted'

    Should the order status change when the item is despatched, because now 2 days have gone since my order should have arrived and i'm not sure whether i should contact them to check the status of the order incase they cancel it?

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Anyone managed to unlock one of these yet?

    Are you sure yours is locked? Mine arrived yesterday and is not locked. It accepts any sim card. It's worth checking first.

    I have tried using the Worldunlock Codes Calculator (link in post #8) . Tried with +7, +5 and +1 codes but it kept saying Code error? Should a SIM be in or out when unlocking?

    Got mine today, unlocked using the +7 code, no SIM inserted, just powered on.

    Great stuff.
