USHINING mobile phone model F280

I have just bought this from Amazon. It is a flip top phone with a small screen on the outside visible when it is closed. Clearly intended for old folk like me!
I can't find how to set it up for Predictive Text. Looking at the questions on Amazon some people seem to have managed to do this and other people have found it impossible and have returned their phone to Amazon.
Does anyone know how to set it up please?  I can't find a support line for Ushining which I imagine is just a marketing name used by a larger company. The leaflet that comes in the box is no use.

Having a look around and checking the specs at various sites it doesn't appear that the phone has predictive text.

For example, from Amazon

I have just received this phone. I have set it up with old SIM and a new micro memory card and have tried many ways to set it up to do predictive text. Via the text messages, pressing the hash and star buttons, trying settings input methods (that's only abc, Abc, ABC or numerical) and all the other settings menu possibilities and have concluded that it is not possible to do predictive text. I am returning it. Pity it seems to work nicely with large buttons and clear text in the screen. 

PHK

Ushining appears to be a brand of Uniphone Communications, and it doesn't look like it supports predictive text.

I have now returned the phone to Amazon.  Thanks for your replies.
