    If you want to be sure to be sure the IMEI number is also shown behind the battery.

    Friend just texted the IMEI number as it was on the box. I'm helping her get it unlocked.

    Do I trust the box or check the phone when I see her later?

    Personally i would do the check - i know it's a VERY long shot but the phone may have at some stage been taken out of the box and put into the wrong one before being sold. For the sake of 2 mins of your time I would check.

    Probably right.

    I was just trying to save some time as by the time I see her later and then get a chance to upload the info for the unlock code it will be about 6/7 hours from now.

    What kind of sim card does it take?

    Normal size. Not micro and not nano. Thankfully.

    I wasn't expecting a nano sim as that's only the iPhone 5 I believe. At least the normal sim saves me from having to cut down her current O2 sim.

    I have not had any luck with Tesco's and stock.

    Sainsburys, Argos, Asda and the Vodaphone shop all do it at £99.:(

    Has anyone seen any other deal on it anywhere? shop or online?

    £99 still sounds like a good price for this phone.

    Ultimately your right it is, but when you see the ticket on the wall at Tesco saying £65 if bought with £30 of other shopping.... now that's Money Saving!!!

    If only they had any! Also I have various Tesco vouchers so would be walking away with one for £40 and some groceries I would be buying anyway.
