    As far as I know it locks to the first SIM card used.

    Offer available if you switch or upgrade. Are you guys maybe buying as a new connection?

    that could be it, i tried as a new connection and got a product not available message.

    edit - yep, I chose an upgrade and code worked...thanks op, might be getting this for my daughter as her first phone.

    edit 2 - this is advertised as 3rd Gen, but the tech specs on the meteor site list 1GB RAM and no mention of the storage space. Looks like this could be the 8GB, 1GB RAM version and not the 16GB/2GB RAM version.

    The 2GB/16GB version is about €180~200 which is about the same price as the 4th Gen

    There's two micro slots. One for the sim and one for the sd card. I got the 8 gig version as above. Very good phone and 110 is an absolute steal.

    My order was cancelled, I assume offer expired. Tried in a shop, got the same response.

    Yes, it has a micro SD slot, accepts up to 32gb.
    And because it's got Marshmallow, if you "format" your SD card to the phone, it reads the memory as native, meaning your 8gb internal memory can become up to 40gb of internal memory as far as the phone is concerned.

    Seemed to work ok on a Moto E. It did complain about the speed of the card though.

    Yes select the switch your number option when purchasing. Then either switch your mobile over to meteor or if you have a spare sim from another network use that.

    Everyone has been pm'd above, ideally the less notice this thread gets the better so from now on if anyone wants to know the workaround just pm me. Don't post in the thread. Hopefully they don't cancel all the orders if they notice a high number ordered over the weekend.
