| Re: Free mobile phones Well using mluton's url I clicked add to basket on the Sim only PAYG Text Anytime2 When it loaded up my basket there was an 02 Ice phone listed as well as bluetooth headset and 1Gb SD card. No mention of telesales and no request for any card details and i've had an email through saying... We're happy to tell you that your O2 order has been passed to our warehouse for dispatch. This should be on its way to you very soon. So fingers crossed...

| Re: Free mobile phones Done it twice - Motorola L6 and an 02 ICE. Thought i'd stop there. Will wait and see what arrives - I doubt the fraud squad would get involved - O2 will just refuse to honour the orders "due to a technical glitch" at worst. At best, they will clear out old stock that no one wants and potentially get some more users, as people will always want a sim card for various reasons......
