Do you just get a sim card or do you actually get a free phone like a contract?

you do get a phone if you use the offer code in the first post, but as has been said its not very good, if you want the sim only option then thats fine :)

Whats another story jules? :)
Can you keep your existing number if you take up the offer? a sim that gives me them benefits for £10 month would do me dandy :)

Yes you can keep your number as well.

yep, just call your existing provider and request a PAC (port authorisation code) so you can give this to virgin and you can then have your existing number on to the new sim card!

Thanks kronas :)

Does anyone have a link to a picture of the phone you get?

The deal is that for £5 a month I can list three mobile numbers that are also on Vodafone and all 4 of us can then ring each other any time day or night for free as long as the call does not last longer than a hour, so on ours there is me my partner and my son which leaves one number free if we want to add anyone.

For £7 a month you can have up to 6 people on the list, oh and by the way only one person pays the fee it is not per person :D




Try this link to have a look at the phone http://www.mobilegazette.com/lobster-575-06x07x06.htm
