    A while ago carphone warehouse were taking trade-ins for pay as you go mobiles. From what I can tell they now only take them for contract phones.

    Is anywhere still doing this for pay as you go mobiles, as I have a couple of old handsets to get rid of.

    They will probably be given to charity otherwise.

    give them to charity. CPWH takes a tenner off any phone............but goes to them and they probably give the phones to their emplyees relations or something!

    3g gives 20 off a new phone if you trade in an old working phone with a colour screen. at least they used to

    I doubt that's true.
    They give 20e off with phone, manual and charger.

    Yep I have been into 3G today.

    It is not a colour screen phone, and I have the phone, manual and charger.

    The other is a handset only
