They don't let you buy the phone for that price, have a look by adding it to your basket. I also rang them up to try and sort it and got nowhere.


I just tried it as you said:



The checkout button asked me for address details etc., no other extras to add on there.

Be prepared though... no frills, really means no frills. It was like a toy from the market :cool:


:lol: I will go in and ask them what wonder they can find out the back for me. No frills is no problem, as long as it isn't a brick.

if you get a tesco phone it should work on O2 considering tesco use O2's network...

You can't. Even though it's O2's network they use, a Tesco phone can only be used on Tesco as they have different network codes.

Hello,

My phone gave up the ghost yesterday and I need a new one. I'm with O2 on a sim only rolling monthly contract.

Basically all I need is a really cheap phone that can call and txt, nothing else is needed. I've been to a few phone shops in town today and they all say a phone has to leave the shop with credit :( The credit is of no use to me.

Does anyone know anywhere, apart from ebay, that you can just buy a phone?

Cheers
