    My Mother got a very similar free phone from this bunch and the phone was illegal to use. There was no information on the phone as to whether it was legal to use or not and therefore is illegal. You should either get a little approved triangle or red circle saying illegal to use.

    My Mother didn't know these legalities and liked it as it was compact and plugged it in upstairs. One rather major drawback was that her particular one refused to dial out - but seemed ok on incoming calls.

    Are these the same as the phones Laredoute were giving away last sumer? I found them to be poor quality. I think I still have some in a cupboard.

    I think the accessorie is a white plastic ring measurer - to measure the ring size of your fingers. I did a similar offer choosing the same item for a free gift (which turned out to be a red parka coat suitable more for my mother!)
    I always wanted to be a procrastinator, never got round to it...

    it;s not the same phone as LR, but similar - mine came yesterday and I kept the box to send some ebay purchases in and threw the phone in the bin!!
