    Thanks for your replies. I bought a cheap Olive mobile dual sim phone form Amazon for around £29 in the end. Its perfect for what i want it to do.
  • I bought a nokia C1 7 months ago and even though it is very basic it is a good phone and only cost £30
    Owing on CC £00.00 :j

  • Hello Nat1977. Thanks for the tip. This looks like exactly what I need at a good price too.
  • I now have a Dual sim NOKIA X1-01 which works well and although a bvasic phone, does what is supposed to.............one niggle though.
    When i rec a call or more importantly a text message, only the number comes up , not the name of the caller. Even though the caller is in my phone and sim memory. At times I have to scroll through lots of numbers to find out the identity of the sender/caller.
    apart from that i find its a great little phone.
    it cost 40 euros here in Austria.
