Default Nokia 1112 - pay-as-u-go - Carphone warehouse

http://shop.carphonewarehouse.com/pa...kia/1112-blue/

not an expert on this so . . .

i see its on virgin - does that mean its virgin branded as well ?

are carphone phones by mail order branded as i thought
pay-as-you-go in the shops weren't ?

if you buy in the shops so you need full name / address ? - its for a
relative
so not much point giving them anyway really

and for the cost , if it breaks just throw it

tx

I looked at one of these in Carphone warehouse a while ago and they were
only available on Virgin and definitely locked.

For a 30quid top up you can use on calls, Virgin will give you
the unlock code for any of their PAYT phones

But it's such a cheap phone i wouldnt bother

I have previously bought Nokia 1100's from CPW and they were unlocked.
In any case they are easy to unlock for free.
Regards,
Martin

That's nice for you.

Yes, the 1100 is dead easy to unlock, however the handset in question here
is a newer variant and different ASIC version which will cause problems for
the free calculators.
