I'm trying to order it now from Very - I tried yesterday but their website was having problems. I want to select the Collect+ (I have a local collection point) but can't find how to delete the delivery charge and substistitute Collect+. Can anyone tell me if they did it please?

You won't get collect+ for a phone unfortunately, I think its something to do with being signed for or perhaps as its a first order. Still a bargain with £3.95 delivery.

First orders do not do Collect+ for credit account unless paid in full, I got round it by ordering something last year and paying in full on card for delivery to Collect+, then 2 days after delivery later applied for credit account on phone & used first order discount over internet when set up credit account, this provides security to them as the card purchase is checked gainst your bank/card/home address and helps satisfy internal credit check rather than just on top of a external credit search alone where you may be refused credit account.

Its kind of like a brownie point system because you have proved you are at the address or still there internally over a credit account application that has tighter security features than approving Mrs B lives here and wants a credit account for a £100 order, where the computer makes a decision & where computer sees you have verifed card & a FULL card payment at that address already the computer is happier to say YES even with a bad credit file, debt is one thing to computer, fraud restriction is another.

I was refused £30 credit account order, bought £8 of things paid on debit card registered to pay for "account" address, verified by bank via card & two days later order of £100 on credit account approved with £1000 credit limit....worked for me, you can but try

Although I was immediately given a £500 credit limit I paid in full with my Visa card. Never mind, I very seldom do pay delivery charges if I can get around it so I'll accept this time. If I faff around too long they'll be sold out and I'll not get my phone. None available (even at full price) at any Tesco within reach, nor Argos, so they're getting hard to find. Just want to see the £30 go back to my Visa card then I'll feel I'm winning!

Are you saying you didn't have to pay for delivery on either purchase?

I am not ordering with them if they don't let me use the voucher ... Asda have it for £80.

Has anyone been in Asda lately to see if there are any at £80 and do you have to buy airtime on top?

I don't have an Asda nearby.

Could anyone help with a dictionary problem please?
There are several words that I use frequently that do not appear in the Huawei dictionary so I added them to the User dictionary.
However, when I text, they still do not appear in the options.
Could anyone advise how I get them added please?
Thanks.

Just type them in to any text - OK OK

You have to OK them twice to add them to the dictionary

Thanks but I can add them to the dictionary, they are all there but when I type my text it doesn't show any of them in the predictive text to use so I have to type it in longhand.
Hope that makes sense.
