have been offered 600mins 1000text free unlimited data backberry curve 8900.

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

Yes all options should be contained to the sim. But please do be aware that the phone is likely notto be insured unless you take out seperate insurances with the related sims to each phone. If you lose the nokia with your sim in it unless declared the insurance is on the 8900 .... hope that makes sence

Blackberry internet and the normal web bolt-on are different and use different APN's so no it wont work.

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.

I'm interested in this aswell. I'm calling them (CPW/O2) on Wednesday....

What kind of stuff did they offer you?

Right I've decided to go for my offer from O2 retentions which consists of:

Free Blackberry Curve 8900
600 min
1000 texts
Blackberry unlimited internet
Free O2 Broadband
18 month contract @ £20 per month

As they could not give me the same £20 deal for my wife (leaving 12 month Orange deal).

I am getting the wife the below:

Free Blackberry 8900
12 month T mobile contract
Combi Web N Walk Tariff
300 min
200 Texts

Plus:
£40 quidco cashback
£95 retailer cashback

Anyone know if the 8GB recon iphones are in stock yet? I was told today but no luck this morning when I rang. The 16GB ones are in though for £99 if anyone is after one.

A blackberry curve with 12 month contract O.o. How much are you paying each month for your wife's contract.

That's a good deal you have got in the end though. I am a bit dispondent because I wanted the Bold. But I think it is too big for me which is a real shame, so I am reassessing what to go for (probably curve).

The wifes deal on T mobile will cost £35 per month.
But take into account the cashback of quidco £40 & retailer & £95 it takes the overall 12 month contract cost down to £23.75 per month and thats with unlimited internet (web n walk), 300 anytime mins & 200 texts.

Wow that is quite an awesome deal. Grolsch do you think it's worth me asking 02 to increase the £20/month for the curve to make it a 12 month instead of 18 month?
