Guest dan Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Has anyone tried to sell an e808 on ebay? Do the guys that are giving away phones as presents realise that they remain liable for call charges as it is their direct debit details which are on 3's database? Anyone know how to get round this?

Dan Most on ebay are being sold sim-free. Unfortunately buyers aren't realising that they can't use standards sim cards, and that "SIM FREE" doesn't mean "UNLOCKED".

Guest The Futures Bright Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 If anyone wants a wee shufty at the manual for the e808Y here's the link. http://www.neceurope.com/PDF_Filez/e808Y%2...K_v3.0_0424.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dan Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 I feel a bit bad selling something that can't be used. I think I'll pull my auction. If they do not currently have a 3 sim the phone will be useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest casper508 Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 After a whole day of PRICE MATCHING ive come home empty handed. Tried The Link, CPW and Phones 4 U. The Link said they wont price match any WEB offers !! CPW wanted proof that they are still in stock at phone4u.co.uk which they found they werent so they refused to price match. Phones 4 U didnt have any in stock . :) :o :P Cas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stevewright Posted August 18, 2003 Report Share Posted August 18, 2003 Got mine ordered from Carphonewarehouse in Halesowen near Birmingham on Friday. Showed them the Phone4u printout, and paid my £10! I reckon smaller, more 'local' stores are less likely to have bothered reading the nationwide emails saying not to match that offer.... Woo hoo!

Guest capt_janeway Posted August 19, 2003 Report Share Posted August 19, 2003 You are correct - but got the e808y for £39.99 instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest casper508 Posted August 19, 2003 Report Share Posted August 19, 2003 I've been totally put off now. All my price matching efforts have ended in vain. I’m definitely not paying more than a tenner for something this hideous. And now after looking at the e808y...bloody gameboy!! I think ill let this go unless someone comes up with a 10 quid offer again. Cas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest capt_janeway Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 Got my e808y - it's massive! Even bigger than my Palm m130. Screen looks nice though and QWERTY keypad is useful but a bit fiddly Any how - just playing now so will try and update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
