    These are not going for much on ebay. Check 'completed items' on left side of screen. Going rate for unlocked 2650s seem to be around the £40 mark. Some get higher bids but usually by zero rated buyers.

    Thats because they are available for 39.99 from orange. If you looked on there last week nokia 2650`s were selling for 90quid->100quid each. Once orange dropped the prices, people flooded ebay as usual with knocked down prices and so the ebay price has dropped.

    Yep also got declined!

    Not even an email to tell me either! what poor service, and there is no reason i should have been declined apart from the reason as above on ebay, as i ordered three!

    I was ordering these through the company i work for aswell! i was told to get 3, and let the reps test them out, if any good we may have ordered 60+ phones!

    Looks like they lost out big time there!!

    nokia 2650 now out of stock, but the 6230 is back on at £149.99 which seems at least £30 cheaper than elsewhere
    Copy from one, it’s plagiarism; copy from two, it’s research.
  • Some good deals still around
  • I have 2 PAYG mobiles from O2 - one for emergencies only. Every few months I would call one from the other to keep it live. I have now been cut off by O2 telling me that I didn't make any chargable calls on the emergency phone. Their T&C's state that you "must make at least 1 call every 6 months". I explained that I had made calls (the 1 phone says call made - the other says call missed) only not chargeable.
    What constitues a call? If I dial a number that is not answered did I not call them?
  • If you ring someone and they do not answer, the call is not connected and you are not charged. The call has to connect for you to be charged - the other person has to answer.
  • i am still waiting for them to take the cash

    you'll be waiting forever.

    Phone the number they sent you in the e-mail and enquire.

    I ordered 4 with my visa electron - 48hrs went and the money hadnt been taken, i phoned them and they told me i had been declined - i asked why - he told me he didnt know!

    I tried again the SAME DAY, ordered two with my visa electron and two with my visa credit card.

    This time i was not declined, £99.98 was taken from my account - from the electron but nothing has been taken from my visa credit card - yet i phoned and they told me both orders have gone through and should be deliverd today or tomorrow... :D
  • Ordered one 7250i on the 5th march and it was delivered 11am 9th march, mum will be well chuffed with her birthday gift.
    Thanks to original poster
