    If you want to try to get the Chat to work I think it would be possible to work you through it.

    When you have "other" e-mail accounts what is the first setting it asks for ?

    There does not seem to be an "other" option

    Apologies if I am a while responding but just painting new kitchen extension. Hence need to cut mobile costs!

  • If you follow the Vodafone instructions what do you see at stage 8/19 on your phone ?

    It is possible the Tesco firmware is different to the Vodafone version.

    That's quite a monthly contract you are on if cutting back a bit frees up enough cash for an extension! :p

    This sounds a very interesting idea. I will look into it a bit more. Thank you.

    I use my phone very little to make calls. perhaps an average of 10 to 15 mins a month. I do use it though to text, probably an average of 200 a month. Would PAYG sound like a viable option for me? I get so confused with all the options

    It would have been if you didn't send quite so many text messages. :)
    I use FishText to send text messages on my Blackberry, but as yours is GPRS/EDGE only it might be a bit slow to access the page..

    So perhaps Tesco Mobile on a rolling one month contract.
    BlackBerry SIM
    150 minutes
    5000 texts
    1GB data
    1 month contract

    Monthly cost
    £10
    inc VAT

    or Giff Gaff for £8 per month with no contract.
    For only £5 get 60 UK Minutes, 300 UK texts and a free extra minute for every minute you get called (as long as the call is not from another giffgaff number). Plus, you will still benefit from our free giffgaff to giffgaff calls and texts.
    For £3 extra a month get the BlackBerry Add-on to access BlackBerry Services.(BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), BlackBerry (push) e-mails and BlackBerry Internet.)
