My son would like a Motorola MPX220 and is looking around for a good deal. He doesn't want to pay more than £30 a month isn't bothered about texts but would like at least 150 x network anytime minutes a month. He's on BT at the moment but doesn't hold out any hope for getting a good deal on an upgrade.


Any ideas?

    Thanks, but they're all from the same store and it says the phone is discontinued. The phone hasn't been out long so I'm not sure why it would be discontinued so I guess now I'm looking for a good deaol from somewhere that has some left :(

    Sorry don't know much about motorola phones as i have never been a fan,if you search the web there might be a reason for the discontinuing etc as not many of the phone companys have them in their list of motorola phones.The V3 (Here) seems to be the most popular choice :)

    Hi,

    Make sure you get the MPX220 instead of the MPX200. Different phones. "The Link" shops are doing special deals on the MPx200 if your local branch has stock. Free line rental on O2 incl 200 minutes and 50 SMS via cashback as its an out of date phone.

    ***Please place any referral/personal gain on the Referral Board, thank you Board Guide***

    The MPX220 is not official support by any UK network at present, but several places package them up for sale on O2 and Vodafone.

    Best regards

    Barry

    That's interesting but my partner has the mpx220 which is a work 'phone. He deals directly with Vodafone and they supply it. Although they did tell him they couldn't supply just a battery he would have to buy a new 'phone after the battery was damaged.

    My son definitely wants the 220 so I guess I'll have to just keep looking.

    Thanks
