O2 Deals & Offers

Yes but what else did you have to buy...everything is usually overpriced at Smiths

You're welcome :) Aha possibly! It was the default one on O2 Priority :o

Thanks - I ordered the Casio fx991ex (the £5 off makes it cheaper than Rymans) - I'm no sure if I was influenced by the picture?

Giffgaff Sim cards appear to be full sized. Should fit. I pulled out an old flip Moto, which I was quite excited about, but the batteries tend to die with age, unless you've taken precautions. So don't bank on it working. Edit: Perhaps I mis-interpreted that, it's probably locked to Orange. Perhaps it would work with EE. Or try and find unlock codes if locked.

I agree with that. I love the really long standby time, as i dont use my mobile that much. But as i got to know this phone, i found more & more things that really annoy me about it. Some of them are so irritating that i'm often tempted to go back to my smartphone and just put up with more regular charging.

I have an original matrix phone Nokia 7110 branded with Orange logo fancy using that again probably 2g I unlocked it years ago but where/how would a get a compatible SIM card on PAYG?

I have this phone, but with what looks like less on-board memory. I wanted just a simple phone, mainly for calls and SMS. Note this is my daily driver. If you have a handful of numbers, you don't mind entering by hand. Or via vcards, and you'll just be phoning them. Then fine this phone is ace. It has a great form factor, it is small, and easy to carry around. I personally find smart phones too large. There are a few irritations. Don't buy for the camera, or the audio player, or for texting, basically don't buy for anything but making phone calls. Texting (SMS) is a bit of a pain, the keys are small, and navigation with the direction pad is very tricky (probably fine for little hands/fingers). You can't really edit words, and the dictionary is limited. Numbers are a real misery, on mine you enter them, and then it auto-fills and kind of duplicates the number which always requires backspacing. You can't adjust the font size. Contrast could be better. On mine the memory is limited and even with additional SDHC texts max it out quickly. And I don't text that much at all. I periodically delete all messages, which is the easiest way to manage this. At first I could not find how to adjust the call volume, thinking that you couldn't, but you can when in call using the direction up/down. My speaker has broken, so now it farts, but beforehand it was clear enough. I've auditioned a few plain phones for oldies and a Doro is much simpler to use. Was thinking of swapping over to one myself. Do not buy for an old person as the font size, and keys are too difficult. I was very disappointed in the phone, mainly as I expected a polished 2018 no-frills phone. This could be ergonomically better and the software has many warts and irritations. Silly things like just trying to mute the phone's ringer isn't a one button option. It's easier to just turn it off. The audio player does not respect album orders for anything but idv3.1 tags - and I get irritating cut-outs between songs. The camera is very lousy, not even that good for quick snaps for aid-memoirs, focusing is poor. I finally tried the browser, which amazingly worked, seems to be Opera mini, text size and navigation again is hard, but might get you out of a bind in an emergency. Do not buy for this feature. It's quite easy to butt-press 111, or 999, and the phone scratches easily. Standby is good, but you'll have to charge if you use it for calls. Call clarity is good under higher frequency bands, dreadful on something like 2G/Edge or whatever it is for me. Our reception is quite poor with our local antenna, so it irriatingly can cut to the poorer quality mid-call. Which I now find impossible. I have to hang up, and start again. Walking into the back of the property can trigger this. If anyone can recommend a better no-nonsense phone, I'd be interested. I now have a larger Android, but for me it just isn't practical. The form-factor of the Nokia is almost perfect, I don't have to worry about sitting on it, and cracking the screen etc, and it doesn't get in the way. That's about the best thing I can say for it. It's very mediocre and buggy. Rather a shame - a missed-opportunity. Oh, and as for Snake, it is the most un-interesting, unplayable wretched game I've come across. Probably. The screen isn't lacking on this phone, so again - a miss, I'm sure with a little imagination they could have come up with something playable.

Yes but it's made by Gameloft and it's nowhere near as good as the original versions.

Free coffee and free chocs in Leicester

10 mins I think, if not then 15.

How long does the code stay on screen before it expires?

Chocolates captured in Cardiff. My dessert is sorted tonight

Got them today. Lady in store said not many people had been going in for them, so even if it says out of stock, they had plenty more. Perhaps worth checking. Thanks again OP am a happy girl

'It looks like this offer isn't for you. But you can still check out our other treats. Like O2 Rewards, where you can get up to 10% back on your top ups. Use it for extra airtime credit. Or save it for something special. http://s.o2.co.uk/ERyclD More for you. Terms apply. To stop texts call 2220.' So not for everyone!

Unless, like me, I have that SIM with working phone calls/texts and voicemail (so I top up occasionally for the calls/texts)

Go back to them and refer to their *written* T's and C's. I'm sure if you complain you'll get something for your trouble.

Then the 02 operator I spoke to last week when activating my sim lied!

Cheers bud,even more tempting!

£40 upfront. Apply code SPC10 to get £10 off

Up to £50 uofront,still very tempted,it's this or the £580 Wowcamera deal!?found this deal for my son a couple of weeks ago,it was this or the the S10 plus for the same monthly,(same 02 deal) but £250 up front,he went for the latter and loves it :D ,i'd have gone for this.

I'm talking customer service which became that bad that I had to record them every time I called; poor uncompetitive pricing, overated network coverage and laughably overpriced upgrade offers for existing customers. I left them and managed to take six others from work with me, they all got cashback, all got unlimited everything, all extremely happy now with three.

Not sure if you are talking about network coverage. Bare in mind network coverage depends on where you live and travel. I would say to people before jumping onto a deal make sure you have network coverage in your area for the network you are thinking of moving to

Good on you, I moved from O2 after similar length of time and managed to get unlimited everything for £14.60 a month with three..O2 are were horrible.

I’ve recently moved to ID after 12+ years with o2. 4.5gb data unlimited texts and 500 mins. Monthly contract £8. Staff on chat very helpful.

I hope O2 go bust so all there customer services can't pay their bills and end up homeless. (y)

Thank you :) . Why can’t o2 just provide us with the phone chargers in the box, I know they say they are trying to be good to the planet. I wonder if the chargers get removed from the box on the manufacturing line or are they just not manufactured for o2 orders

Hi my phone just arrived there's usb in the box just no plug thats everything that's in the box hope it helps.

Does this work even if you never activated/used the O2 SIM they send with the phone?

Thank you (y) much appreciated.

Yeah no probz. Mine is arriving tomoz I'll let you know when it arrives if it has charger usually they have the wire now for usb plug if its not unlocked theres a bit to click in the "my02" u just click and they tell u what to do.

Brilliant thank you!

brilliant, thank you! huge savings

I only ordered my 25gb sim 3 weeks ago to solve signal issues at home. So a week past my 14 days return window. Upgraded to this no probs via link.

Thanks for the replies. Managed to get it ordered, then confirmed with live chat

Hi, I managed to get it as an existing customer and got it for my daughter as a new customer.

This is for new customers. However, some have said that even existing customers can upgrade to this by logging in at the time of purchase. - though I can't say for sure as I went for the 90gb retention deal instead.

I had issues with this but it worked the second time i processed it. never actually got confirmation email though!

I've just gone for this deal, as far as I can see this and the £31 EE deal are the best prices anywhere for an S9+ 128gb (maybe OP should put 128gb in the title), it's not a cashback by redemption deal, and there's potentially £42 topcashback too so I'm not sure why it's cold!

I'm paying £35 with 30 gb

Decent deal but 20 GB with EE for £1 less per month

Many thanks for your reply

You add to basket, select a random tariff, then pay. They'll send you a free SIM to top up but you don't have to.

How can you get it without top up ? Thanks

Lucky you! They must be releasing units one at a time, now OOS again.

Just managed to order one there

Muffle ? I’ve heard no complaint about this problem from anyone else !

Speakers muffle on this version. Xs max better investment. I got both for testing.

THEY SPAM you like crazy, daily

They are :) I use their nail varnishes quite a lot, I always buy their sets/collections! The advent calendars they do at Christmas are also lovely.

I've never heard about 'Ciate'. Are their products any good?
