    If i was to give this phone to my wife to use would I still be able to use the sim card in my Nokia n85 would the features like the unlimited internet work as normal?

    Thanks

    Good deal thats what they offered me, did they say that the phone was out of stock?
    Also make sure and ask if the phone is a new boxed one not a refurb or returned phone.

    Just mention to them also if they could give you free O2 broadband with in the package.
    I just mentioned it to them and they said yes no problem so free for 12 months.

    I've got O2 broadband already (got it with £50 quidco cashback), and when I mentioned it to them they said they would speak with the broadband department to see what they can do.

    I was told that the phone was out of stock so will phone them tomorrow and also try again to get it on a 12 month contract.

    But nevertheless good deal.
    Tell me how you get on :beer:

    yes they also offered me free broadband with the deal and they also said the home broadband will stay free even after the initial 12month contract. so quite happy with this.

    The phone is currently out of stock and they said when it comes back in stock I could have this deal.

    So back to my question will the sim card with all the features work on my Nokia n85?
  • I am overdue an upgrade but to be fair i havent done it yet because i am at a loss as to what i want phone wise so many to pick from

    can any suggest a top phone great camera, music, 3g, quad band, easy to use interface (currently i am using samsung which i find easy)
    i would also like the option to access hotmail or web mail while out of the house.
    my children have 3 phones with free msn ? this is a great option to have i think

    Anyway if anyone can point me in the direction of a good handset i can narrow the list then possibly work on getting the best deal from there.

    Thanks in advance

    cheers for this after looking up the phone spec it really does look a good option ............... So now my question is what could i possibly expect to realistically get offered with this phone ....... been on o2 over 10 years have a paid upfront contract and this one thats due renewal now paying 30 p/m and ics on top so around 33 p/m was 400 mins 100 txt i think but never really use up all allowance .... so intenet bolt on would be cool and thinking to move bb from sky as thats costing me 10 p/m now since new charges came intoforce but really want to reduce my monthly out goings .......

    Any suggestions on what or how to get the deal that best suits would be fab

    regards

    I'm currently on CPW/O2. No good retention offers from them. Is there any chance O2 direct would give me one the retention deals disccused here.

    has anyone managed to get one of the o2 retention deals using PAC issued by CPW/O2.
