    I have now removed this link to the Tribe discount to stop any future customers going through this link.
    I did not realise this was the case and found it on another forum.

    Can you PM me the url of the other forum.
    Thanks

    Once the phone is unlocked - will it work with a 3 simcard at all?

    No.
    3 use USIM cards, not SIM cards

    :T £29.99 + £2.99 delivery (tomorrow morning) + they credit you with £10 airtime once you made one chargeable call with the sim they provide :)

    You have to download the license each month to get the free TV channels (instructions provided). The free 90 days start from when I receive it, after that expires I can then choose whether I download further licenses to watch TV at the cost of £5 a month.

    How do i get the tv licence?
    It shows I have reception for 5 channels, and i can get all the DAB radio channels. But when i try to watch the Tv channels is says I need to update my subscription. When i click 'yes' to update it pauses and then says ' we cannot locate your subscription' or something similar. What am i doing wrong?

    How do I register it? I did register on the Virginmobile website. Is that it?
