    I understand that the limit on PAYG phones was imposed by the Networks to prevent box breaking (buying discounted/cheap handsets, removing the sim, then selling for full retail value here or overseas). As a result, many shops have a limit now (not sure of how many - may be 2 per customer?). Though if you were to go into another branch of the same shop, not sure if they record your details?

    Three have apparently got round this problem by glueing the sim into their phones...

    Im just wondering where my second one has gone...wait its actually third one.

    I bought one a few weeks back for my sisters 16th b'day. After that I ordered two more for friends as the price was only £29.95 from phones4u's website + £5 cashback via quidco.

    I got the 1st and 2nd but the 3rd is yet to arrive....if they dont allow more than one then would they give the money back automatically or would I have to 'contact' them.

    I was looking to buy 2 of these Siemens CL75 for £34.95 from Phones4u. But I checked today and it was gone?

    Whats up? Anywhere with a similar price?

    might have sold out at that price and could possibly be end of line too so they may not get anymore back in

    have you tried https://www.thelink.com https://www.carphonewarehouse.co.uk or woolworths

    these might have them

    Carphone warehouse had an offer on but I didnt have time to go down and buy one. it was £39.95 with £10 credit! Is the offer on still? Cant find it on their site.

    The other choice is Play.com for £38.99.

    Any other cheap ones around? with or without credit.

    I have been looking for this phone for over a week and the top shops inc. pphones4u and carphone warehouse have stopped selling then.

    Went to two stores, one said go to another store they have it in stock so went along and they said they dont sell them anymore, went on phones4u's website and nothing there either, going to check their store later on.

    Are these phones discontinued now? Amazon have it but for ridiculous prices and same with eBay, I need brand new unlocked one for £40 tops or £50 with £10 credit, either way.

    Someone HELP me!!!

    Thanks,

    seimens don't make mobile phones anymore, they were taken over by Benq, and became benq-seimens. I think they did release a poppy phone, i think woolworths were selling it. might be worth checking?

    I think that Benq have now ditched seimens, so you are unlikely i imagine to find many, if any poppy phones left unless shops have old stock lying around

    i reckon they were very cheap because shops were getting rid of them
