If I get my bill phone n73 unlocked and put in a 3 uk payg sim into it will they blacklist my phone by any chance? Also can I use a voda payg sim in a N73?

Cheers.!

i've been using my 3 n70 with a meteor sim card for months now without issue. i've used a vodafone sim card too. i think the international mobile community would frown on 3 blacklisting a phone just for using it on a different network. blacklisting is only supposed to be used if a phone is stolen

No (emphatically) and yes, if said N73 is unlocked.

i only swear by nokias, i dont need a camera or games and this looks useful.

i thought that 3g sims need special voltages (usim compatible). ?

I don't understand why you think this wouldn't be compatible? I can't see why not. It wouldn't be fast, that's for sure.

I notice that while you swear by Nokias, you swear at Motorolas, heeheehee.

the e50 is a 2.5g phone i believe so i thought there might be an issue with actually using 3 sim cards on it.

i dont need anything faster than edge really

what i could say about motorolas is not printable here due to the explict nature of it.

Yes, I have just realised that it is not a 3G phone so I have been talking through my hat -sorry about that. Just see if you can get your N73 unlocked and then you'll be fine.

I gt my RAZRv3xx unlocked. never use it.

the v3xx is useful as an accelerator to start fires.

But if you're in Oireland, why do you need to fire up your Vodafone UK at all?? Why don't you just leave dedicated voicemail on it, saying what number you're available at? Why don't you just ask me to post you down a 3UK SIM in the meantime?

cula, cheers for the offer. my bro was in london, told him bring back a sim, not sure if he did. i will get back to you.

the 3 sim did work in an unlocked e50, unlike the samsung e900, obviously the nokia is more sophisticated.
