My son wants a Samsung E370 but the cheapest one is with Vodaphone PAYG.
If I buy him this how easy is it to get it to use his PAYG Orange sim card. I'm not really up on mobiles so excuse my ignorance.

    They are simple to unlock yopu can buy an unlocking clip off ebay for around £4, they simply plug into where the charger goes and it unlocks the phone in 5 seconds, then after it is unlocked you can re-sell the clip on ebay and you will get back the money you paid for it. MSE member james-73 can get clips so it would be worthwhile asking him for his prices as ebays p+p is about £4 so he may do it cheaper
