Well I’m still thinking of using the 3 network. The 3 coverage checker says I’ll be okay in Brighton and if I dont like the phone I have 14 days to take it back for a full refund. After looking at some more phones and packages I’ve taken a fancy … Continue reading

New Mobile Phone

Posted on August 5th, 2005 at 12:38 pm

The time has come for me to ditch my battered old Nokia and start afresh with a new mobile. I’ve had a look in various shops and online and the best deal I’ve seen so far was at Phones4U for the Motorola V975 on the 3 network. And I’m so … Continue reading
