There is an avalanche of positive thoughts heading your way. It will probably rejuvenate you; optimise your metabolism, etc. Mine arrived today. Many thanks BNU.

Oh, I am tingling already - and my metabolism could do with a bit of optimising!!
I have to ask though, if you can transmit thoughts in this way do you really have a need for a mobile phone?:EasterBun

I have tried the offer but it goes up to £29.990

Doesn't work for me either. I only get a £10 voucher and £29 phone. Tried the cookie delete reboot thing as well.
Is it working for anyone else still?

Tested and still working as at 18:14 on 27/05/05.
My post #98 on this thread should help you. This usually is due to looking at the details of the phone before clicking through to Buy. Good luck.:EasterBun

...or by looking at the second page of phones! that was what messed it up for me. Eventually got it working at the end of day 2 of trying. I think BNU's link on #98 finally got it to work for me, and got Rpoints too.
good luck, keep trying..0 -
Everything was okay last night until the delivery address.It would not click on the house number and after numerous attempts a message referred me to phone in. I telephoned 0845 6000 600 quoted Lifestyle Rewards and hey presto 1 Nokia 1100,at £26.99 including joining pack and £20 voucher should be delivered on Tuesday. I have tried to get back on the web but it is telling me ww.virginmobile.com/lifestylerewards is no longer available. Does this mean if I clear my cookies/history I will be able to get back in because it recognised my previous visit. If yes, could some kind soul please tell me how to clear this address - I am a real computer dummy but doing my best to learn...................thanksSallyD0

Although its maore luck than anything i guess, but it worked for me
The lifestyle rewards is an online offer, but if you phone and say the website isnt working for you (which is frequently the truth) then you are transfered to the internet team who process your order over the fone.
however, the internet team finish at 9pm. If you fone after this time your call is dealt with by the regular sales team (be it skeleton night staff).
Now if you purchase a fone via the regular website (not lifestyle rewards) and you already have a virgin mobile sim card registered in your name then you get £10 off the price of any handset if you dont take the new sim card.
This £10 off cannot be used with lifestyle rewards and the internet team are well aware of this, however the sales team after 9pm are not it would seem, resulting in the following deal i got (I have the invoice here to proove it)
2 x Nokia 1100
2 x £20 Voucher
Total price £33.98
Thats less than £17 for a brand new Nokia 1100 with a £20 voucher. (that incidentally sells on ebay for around £18) LOL
But wait theres more... when my fones arrived the next day via courier, I opened the boxes and lo and behold, there were 2 x virgin sim packs in there too!
A good days shopping if i may say so myself
Worth a try anyway, nothing to loose.
Good Luck.
Or maybe because it is all automated, will I get knocked back on Tuesday morning when a human checks my order after the Bank Holiday?
It seems too good to be true: I could be paying £16.99 for a Nokia 1100, £20 airtime voucher and a joining pack (rrp £10) with £5 of airtime on it!
