I know its a bit off a hassle but £80 profit and a free contract (or keep the samsung d500!) is well worth it!! Buying with Phones4u is also much more reliable than from e2save etc etc (you will get your money!)
But you would still be in contract and would have no phone if you sold it.
So you would either have to pay off the contract or buy a new phone.0 -

Nice link but they dont show all the deals available .. just like pricerunner/kelkoo etc.. they seem to be selective as to what deals they promote

Most people already have a mobile phone though don't they, so just pop it in! Personally I have a triple sim adaptor so I have 3 sims in 1 phone!0 -

Out of the subject, how do you choose wich sim to use on your phone? do you have to turn on of the fone or...
i was thinking of getting these multiple sim holder but wanted to know more if they are convenient
cheersLife should not be taken seriously, as no one would get out alive0 -
I've never used one, but i think you do just turn the phone off and then back on.
I'm sure Darren can enlighten us.....0 -

Well there are different types you can get. For a start it depends on your phone what ones are available.
However, they broadly fall in the category of:
1) dual/triple adaptors - these are complete replacement backs for your phone, holding 2 or 3 sims. You don't have to turn off n on just flick the switch at the back. I have one of these and think it's excellent, only drawback is it makes ur phone a bit bigger as the replacement back is bigger to hold the 3 sims!
2) Ghost adaptors - these hold 2 sims and go under your current cover, no need for a new back but you have to turn ur phone off and on to switch over and you can't generally get them to hold 3 sims. They come in all shapes and sizes depending on ur phone.
Hope this helps, I'd definitely recommend them - a final point to note is they are cheaply made but mine has lasted over 2 yrs so can't complain!0
