    My son wanted 6280, two weeks ago.02 said they had been with drawn due to problems with phone.

    I rang today and was told the same - that the Nokia 6280 had been recalled as they were having problems with the software. The woman I spoke to said that they were expected in on the 15th May, but don't hold your breath!
    Nice Shoes & Expensive Designer Handbags, are my downfall!

    I was told that the current ones had been recalled but the new ones had new software to fix the bugs. Obviously I take that with a grain of salt.

    No idea what phone to get if they don't get it back in stock. I want a Nokia but I want one that isn't a smart phone (had them for three years, sick to death) and has a big screen so the 6280 is ideal.

  • Hi,

    I was just wanting to know something. I've been offered 200 anytime x network mins and 300 text and a new phone for £15. However people have been saying they have been offered 200mins and 500 texts. I've phoned 3 times so far, and they're telling me they can't offer me anymore for that price...! I was wanting to know if the people who got it are on a online/offline tariff. Im on a offline tariff.

    Any advice what to do now, accept the offer? Or they told me to find a deal and they're try and match it (if so can people give me any deals for under £20), or just say im going?

    Thanks

    Amelia

    What are the chances of me getting a new phone and cheaper contract with O2. I'm currently on 100 mins and txts per month for £25.00. I'm looking at Vodaphone's £20/mth for 125 mins & 250 txts. I also want the Sony Erricson W810i. My contract finishes 21st July.

    Interestingly I was offered a good Three deal yesterday with a 6280 (400 x network mins + 400 txt +50 MMS + bluetooth headset and memory card) for £22.50 per month.

    I phoned O2 to cancel my contract and they offered me 200 mins + 500 messages for £15 per month rather than the 50 mins I get at the moment for £19.50 :rolleyes: . I agreed to a 12 month contract then at the last moment she decided that the phone would cost me £100 so I told her to cancel instead which she promptly did!

    Guess my custom wasn't valuable then :confused: .

    Try 3. They had those in the shop and you could get a better deal if they offerred you something similar to the deal they offerred me.

    I got the deal of 200 mins and 500 txts for £15. I'm on online customer. Apparently you are offered better deals by retentions for being an online customer.

    Thanks for the info but the only networks that work round us are O2 and Orange.
  • Firefly, are you on offline/online?

    I am an online customer - whatever that means :confused: . I didn't sign up online but was persuaded by some guy who called me out of the blue so was surprised to find I am an online customer.
