There ya go, under £50 (just) and the added benefit that when something doesn't work and three customer services blame the handset you can just tell them to sort it rather than having to go to the shop you bought the handset from to have them tell you it's not the handset it's a network problem.

Could you pls type out the weblink in full - there seems to be a problem with the "hyper" and I can't navigate to where you have in mind. The phones that I see are all "£... per month" not your £50. Tks

The link is to "£... per month"

I wouldnt sugest to buy any android low range phone,because after months or so,they start bugging and turning off. It is so slow and frustrating. Buy on ebay or amazon some touchscreen feature phone.
I am telling you this from personal experience.

Thanks for the tip [but no thanks!]. I had laboriously whittled down the choice to a short list of low spec
Three PAYG** = LG Optimus L1 II + Samsung Galaxy Fame,
and Cex (webuy.com) = Samsung Genio Touch, Omnia Lite B7300 and Galaxy Y S5360 phones, many if not all of which I think are Androids.
I suppose that in each case there is a guarantee. On the other hand what reason is there to suppose that the results would be any better from Amazon or even more so from eBay?
** locked I suppose from Three, but unlocked from CeX.
