it will work on the 3 network if its unlocked
is this actually a 3g phone then? don't the three network kill your sim or something if it's put into a 2g handset?0 -
Got mine today. Can get radio signal, and it says found 5 tv stations, but when i try them it says need to update subscription? when i click ok, it states 'we have had some trouble getting your subscription'
what does it all mean, and how can I sort it.

This happened to me aswell.
I kept trying but it wouldn't work.
I live out in the sticks,so when i went shopping to town
did it again then and all worked fine.
So it could be that you don't get a good reception where you live.0 -

Well I am very happy with mine. Had to wait in the hospital car park for 45 mins today as my son had his physio appointment and spent the time watching TV and listening to Radio on the Lobster.
I can't pick TV up at home but my surrounding towns can so this will come in very handy for me to relieve the bordom of the weekly waits in the car at the hospital.Its better to be late in this life than early in the next one.

Thanks to OP, as I have just ordered one.
Quick question, I am with virgin for cable tv etc so I have the sim card deal of 300 min and 300 texts for £10 per month, can I put this sim into the phone and still access the tv for the 3 months?
Thanks
Hence Why i will be getting the £10 contract when I used up my airtime0 -

you are wrong :-(
i asked the same question to the virgin customer service
i have a virgin tv/broadband package which allowed me to get a 300min/300txt mobile deal at £10/month. if you read the small print it states you can cancel at any time. In effect it is similar to pay as you go and not a 12 month contract.
You will only get free tv if you are on a 12month+ contractProblem with having access to internet is that i get asked by many to solve their problemsWell at least i learn something on the way

What email address should I use for contacting customer service for the unlock code?
Also how long does it take for the 100 x 2 minutes to be added. I texted the number with the code on my scratch card at 7pm and I havent been credited with the minutes yet...0 -
