I am completely ignorant on mobile phones so need advice.
my pay as you go phone has completely broken no life whatsoever. had the battery tested and its not that so I need a new one. Sim card has £25.00 on it but when I tried sim card in someones phone no numbers were on it so have lost them all. it is an orange network on a nokia phone. Advice on how I keep the £25.00 and what sort of phone I need to buy to tranfer this money.

  • First of all, you wont lose the £25.00, secondly for the sim card to work you need to get a phone that will work with an orange sim card, on this forum people like myself can unlock a phone so any sim card works with it. (Nokia phones that are not BB5) So basicly if you dont want to fork out a lot of money, if there is a nokia 1600 on voadfone in tesco for £19.99 and the same phone is £24.99 on orange, buy the one that is on vodafone as I will be able to unlock it for you free of charge. I dont need your phone to do this and it will be done in seconds. Hope this helps

    thankyou jaymarsh. I will buy a phone this weekend. What number do you require? Shall I post it on the board? Then I will ask you whatn to do. Thanks again.
  • All I need Pammy is the IMEI Number, you can get this by pressing *#06# on your phone, then private message me that number, the network its on (I.E vodafone,orange etc) and the phone model you have bought and will give you full instructions.
