Help! My phone got smashed last night in a club and I'm too poor to really buy a new phone.
I was wondering if you knew of any websites/places where I could get an old phone in working condition to replace my broken one. I am willing to pay although I cant afford much more than £15.
Please please help me, I am job hunting at the mo and really need my mobile to work!!
Thanks, I am forever in your debt

You can have a look at this site
http://uk.freecycle.org/
people list things that they no longer use and everything is free so maybe there will be a mobile phone near you that you can collect for free0 -
If you are on orange Argos are currently selling this phone for £10
Follow the link below

I would definately go with the Freecycle.com idea. If you are a member of yahoo already you dont even have to register again but if your not its no hassle. You can place a request on there asap aswell. Its simply people helping out other people..fingers crossed0

Which phone is it? And how bad is the damage? I broke the screen on my N73 before my first exam.. cost me £20 off eBay for a new lcd screen n fitted it myselfSLC: £13000+
Quidco: £131.24 (paid) + £0 (validated) = £131.24
Valued Opinions: £75 (paid) + £52.30 (received) + £4.50 (pending) = £131.80
StudentPanel: £250
