Hi, when I tried the N70, I didn't think it was that great, but I didn't think it was the worst phone, as far as call quality goes. Doesn't stand out I guess is what I'm trying to say.

Third Edition phones are the |||||||| "in thing" now, such as the E65, E75, N82 (The best phone ever |||||||| so far in my view), the N95, etc. |||||||| |||||||| All the best |||||||| |||||||| Steve |||||||| |||||||| -----Original Message----- |||||||| From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] |||||||| On Behalf Of Carol Pearson |||||||| Sent: Friday 25 April 2008 22:04 |||||||| To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx |||||||| Subject: [access-uk] Re: Choosing/switching mobile |||||||| phone/providers questions |||||||| |||||||| Hi Catherine, |||||||| |||||||| As I'm exitting Orange as a very unhappy customer of theirs, |||||||| I'm delighted to tell you as much as I can. (See my answers |||||||| to your questions |||||||| below) |||||||| ||||||||| 1. Could I leave before my contract's up? How do I even ||||||||| find out |||||||| I had graduated to a £15 monthly contract where only a month's |||||||| notice had to be given, because I thought I was on the way out! |||||||| Well, usually with contracts they say they still charge you |||||||| ... even if you go ... |||||||| |||||||| If you've been paying much over the odds, do what I intend to |||||||| do and that's to go to OFFCOM, if they don't give me the money |||||||| back they've taken falsely! ||||||||| 2. What happens, if/when you switch providers, about keeping ||||||||| the same phone number? |||||||| You ask them for a PAC (Port Authorization Code) which they |||||||| will send you in the post. Then you sign up with another |||||||| provider and they import the number. There's a short delay, |||||||| so you may have a temporary number for a few days, but it |||||||| works out OK. I've done it once already and am just doing it |||||||| again with two phones. ||||||||| ||||||||| 3. Has anyone got any comments accessibilitywise about ||||||||| particular providers? Or phones for that matter. I'm happy ||||||||| with my Nokia 6630 with Talks and a hefty crack in the ||||||||| screen, but if switching means I get a new phone which I can ||||||||| instal Talks, MobileSpeak or SmartHal onto I'll do it. On ||||||||| the other hand is it possible to sign up for a new contract ||||||||| and use my existing phone? I think they usually give you a ||||||||| phone as part of the contract but would I be able to swap the ||||||||| sim over and use it in my old phone? If this is possible I ||||||||| may do it to save money. |||||||| I'm sticking to Pay As You Go for the first three months to |||||||| look at various contracts with O2. Even if I was having a |||||||| contract, I'd keep my own phones running because TALKS gets |||||||| expensive to keep changing. Yes, you can swap the sims, |||||||| unless you have very old phones and then they may not work. |||||||| The 6630 should be OK. ||||||||| ||||||||| 4. Has anyone any recommendations for websites that compare ||||||||| different packages/tariffs? I had a quick look on ||||||||| moneysupermarket.com and found the phone comparison tool's ||||||||| search results a bit hard to understand, though I've used it ||||||||| before for credit cards. |||||||| I suggest you may want to look at |||||||| |||||||| http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/ |||||||| |||||||| Or, if you prefer, call in and talk to them. |||||||| |||||||| |||||||| Can't help you much with your final question, but hopefully |||||||| this will get you somewhere. |||||||| |||||||| Write again if you think I can give you any more and of course |||||||| privately if you want a bit more info about my problems with |||||||| Orange. |||||||| |||||||| -- |||||||| Carol |||||||| carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx |||||||| |||||||| |||||||| ** To leave the list, click on the
