    Do you need to be a virgin mobile customer for this to track properly yet? Or does - click through quidco, copy and paste the phone link, then checkout and create an account also work? Thanks :D

    Result. After a lot of ponsing about because Alliance and Leicester could not recognise my name I purchased it online and it has been tracked by quidco. Thanks all.
    BTW my reading of this deal is that Virgin Registered customers get the deal at least £10 cheaper.
  • why does your post subject say Nokia 2310 Virgin Mobile For £1.99 PAYG - where is it £1.99?

    Since the postage etc. isn't avoidable it would have been more helpful to have included it. The phone really costs £4.98 if you go through the hoops, which is a very good price. I don't know why anyone would want to bother unlocking it to put a different sim card in it, right enough.

    it is a decent enough phone, depends who / what you want it for.
    Would make an ideal Xmas present at this price.
    It is a basic phone, but without looking like a house brick, practical and looks quite good too. After all what do you expect for under a fiver ? lol

    Battery life seems good too:
    Standby Time**up to 400 hoursTalk Time**up to 360 mins
