    Yep, we sure are switching off the SIM cards that are in most of these phones, but not all.Go to an 02 shop and we can check the phone number.If it is one thats being turned off, we will do you a new SIM,free of charge, that will work fine in the Savvy and you can have your old number and any calltime you already have as well.It just takes 2 weeks to transfer over.

      Hi - I work at O2 (formerly BT Cellnet) - we still have a few of these phones on our network -they must be indestructible!!!
      We are disconnecting all of these phones on our network on 31st June because most of them use an older technology ... just thought I'd post that 4 u people

          to change language on this phone, press and hold 0 and it brings language menu up for you to then choose which you prefer

            I tried to pack this up because i sold it on ebay for £0.01 but the packaging ripped due to its weight.
            But good things about the phone are
            Good Paperweight
            Breaks your neck if u have it on a neckstrap
            Weightlifting
            No need 2 carry on

              Well that's strange. In my first posting the word ringtone was highlighted and underlined - a link, but when I posted a second time commenting on that it's disappeared - maybe it'll come back when I'm not looking?

                Great little phone with a good battery that lasts several days before needing a charge. I've owned my Virgin Savvy since 2000, it makes and receives calls which is all I want from a phone - and what other phone can do 'Old Macdonald Had A Farm' as a fairly unique ringtone, in amongst all those samey Nokias?

                  If anybody has a problem with a savvy, then possibly they misused it or bought the phone damaged. I bought mine in year 2000 and todate its still going strong....
                  I just love it !

                    If you have this phone and are looking to upgrade Tesco Mobile have a good range starting at £9.99 for the Motorola c155.

                      It is functioning well,that is with my philips savvy I can enjoy a network in remote areas where the network has problems.but the only problems with my hand set is that it has only one language which I'm not familiar with, I have tried to learn it by my self and I just managed to made and receiving call,sending and receiving sms

                            Good:
                            - battery life
                            - sonar ring tone
                            - very, very cheap (say

                              Sazzys are so shit i cant believe anyone would actualy like them. They are dodgy as anything, yes the battery might stay charged for a while but then it die in a yr or 2. My mum had a Savvy for no more then 3 yrs and now it totally dead and when it does decide to turn on u cant call any 1 and no 1 can call you. SAVVYs are the most featurless pieces of shit eva made

                                I had the Savvy phone once. I was wondering if ne1 knew what the full name of the 'Dream' ringtone was??? Dont u think its cool??? I now have a Samsung e700 and all the tones on it are s**t.
                                If you know plz email
                                Thanx

                                  The best thing about this phone was the 'sonar' ringtone - very cool indeed. Seem to remember the backlight was a bit dim....

                                    Good phone but the display is grafic not alphanumeric. It has 23 languages. I like it.

                                      I brought one for myself and my mum in 1999 and they have both been going great guns since then. I recently 'upgraded' (I use the term loosly) and brought my mum another 'upgrade' too - I had to prize this phone from her hands so she'd use the new one then she told me she wanted her Savvy back!! Both she and I have not EVER had any problems with either the phone functions or battery lives and the only reason I brought her a new one was that the phone would dial numbers with the number-lock on (not good for handbags!!) alas we should have stuck with the Savvy!!! - our new phones are ericssons and the signal strength on both of them is utter crap. If you've got a Savvy - stick with it - it may not have all the bells and whistles but at least you can hear people and know that your battery will last for more than half an hour!!! I miss my Savvy !! (*sob*)
