    Get the google translate extension for chrome and click translate this page in the top right hand corner.

    This may help :P

    Joking aside, if you click "Anadir al carrito" under the item you want to buy, it will add it to your shopping cart, which will appear on the top right hand side of the page.
    Click the trolley icon and a drop down will appear. On the bottom of that, click "Tramitar pedido".
    That will bring you to the checkout, where you can enter any coupon codes you may have, and choose your payment.
    Pay with Paypal and your address is already there, or you can register an account.

    Top Left of the page also has automatic translation, you can choose English. Or open the site with Google Chrome or Firefox with one of these.

    Any users of the Xiaomi Mi5 here? Looking for a phone with dual sim and the Mi5 seems to have gotten good reviews. Looking at using the following site http://www.iwantmi.com/index.php

    Took a quick spanish lesson and it worked. Cheers :P Not sure what I did but it worked in the end. Every time I tried to translate in to English it kicked me back to the very start and the rest would just end up in spanish again.

    Anyways, phone ordered, hopefully it wont take too long!

    Just got an email from Wish stating the Umi Rome with 3 GB RAM and 64gb HDD is on sale for €109....surely worth a punt!

    Bought an umi hammer when they came out. Will never buy umi again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    Anyone else getting a sudden surge of emails from a certain crap, cheap, clone site?
    They have been emailing me and asking a ton of questions, and it's not an automailer. I'm interested to see where it goes, but I have no intention of replying.

    What was the problem with the Umi Hammer?

    Hi

    Needs to be dual sim and Micro SD card

    Preferably 5.5" screen

    Needs to run on O2 / Band 20

    Reasonably decent camera

    Anything out there say 4GB and meeting this criteria?

    Thanks is advance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,011 ✭✭✭eamonnq

    Second sim OR MicroSD though, not sure if that suits you.

    Well, so much for that. Ordered from AliExpress with a Visa Debit, was checked (successfully) with the Verified by Visa thing. Got held by BOI who contacted me to confirm the transaction, which I did, but I got a cancellation email from AliExpress.

    They said the order is cancelled, but want photo id, picture of the card & more. I contacted their live chat for a refund and they claim the money is still held by my bank (not in my account according to internet banking). Total clusterfsck.

    I need to look for somewhere else to buy. Preferably with PayPal for the extra security.

    No, though I just heard about it this week.

    I'm buying this through business account so wanted to charge directly to it so it shows up cleanly in the accounts.

    I ended up ordering the P9000 from Geekvida.es for €247 all in. That's about 40 quid more than the AliExpress seller, but if it arrives quickly I've no problem with the extra cost.

    Ordered the P9000 from Gizchina and paid by PayPal, choose European shipping
