+1 just looking at phones on there you can see so many stolen or obviously damaged goods. Even seen a few which openly state 'found in a taxi' etc, also lots selling phones purchased on contract which again can result in it getting blocked if they miss payments or do a little insurance fraud.

Wouldn't have been sold, a lot of debt recovery companies are owned by the original company. As originally stated the price will probably be due to charges etc added to the account by the 'debt collection company' Hope you get it sorted soon.

And with the bands that are coming up for auction for O2 and Voda to buy - None of the models will work on 4G! Only EE will be able to offer 4G Linky

moruga scorpions have grown, I can not wait for these to ripen up.

Easy, dodgy sky customer care person, sets up a Sky account for a 'friend', changes address to yours after installation = free Sky for X time no doubt the works as well. Like the old virgin where the line is connected by a dodgy engineer to house, house owner then had one of the modded boxes...

Read on an article "pro cycling world tour" posted online that there is some evidence that a test was failed and covered up at one of la tour stages he won. If true and the UCI did help cover it up, there must be a big shake up from the top down. Also AFDL said that he always knew when a test...

800 and 1800MHz are the bands we currently use. Orange are going to utilise their 1800MHz band for this LTE they are offering from next month in Bristol. Almost guarantee that 2600MHz will the the main UK LTE band with it already being rolled out at that across Europe.

Orange will be using 1800MHz as per their current network. HSDPA+ speeds will also increase slightly. If your not in Bristol you wont get anything anyway (only city they are running it in) Not going to work on Apple 'LTE' devices over here. "According to Apple U.K.'s info page, the new iPad...

I can only dream of speeds like that! Likewise down copper wires, however I do get 5MBps from Sky atm but would never go back to BT as when with them before they struggled to supply 1.5MBps to property on same line. (Sucks living in a poor BB service area!)

Hospitals can be tricky/expensive. If visiting someone on a ward for a long period of time or for several days in a row, speak to the ward sister. Folks have done this often (North Staffs) and get a huge reduced price to the standard meters out side. Don't like the sound of the system...

Yes they are but you have to pay them £30,000 in rent within 10 years and after 5 what you haven't paid back comes out of the money you sell the house for. 2 area's they are doing it in the houses sell for £20k at the moment. (have to be a resident of Stoke-on-Trent i.e pay council tax there...

Cycle forums seem to suggest giving Carrera a wide birth. http://www.decathlon.co.uk/triban-3-id_8167038.html# - this seems to be the one they recommend and also been given great reviews by cycle magazines.

Know all this. Also the Cycle 2 work scheme finished which is why I am selling camera gear to fund. not used it in over a year only done 670 shutter actuations on my 60d since I got it (Sept 2010 - UK release)

Yes, security and gate on the 1 entrance in/out, bike shed is next to the vehicle maintenance yard which is also maned during the times I work. At home it will be kept in house (on hall wall)
