I wish I had read these messages before I got this phone.I admit it is cute looking but just doesn't preform properly, the camera is not brilliant but does the job,no new ringtones available to download(has anyone be able to get hold of the lead to be able to download from PC?)I had the problem of it switching of on its own and the battery not lasting more than a day so took it back and now on my second phone, and am having all the above faults. I am very disapointed, low grade product 4/10

I just got the pink one on Saturday, and I must say that i'm happy, it takes a bit of getting used to, but change isn't always a bad thing. The camera is fine for a non pro, such as myself and the ringtones area big improvement. The games are the only complex thing , unclear instructions and tacky sound.90/100

hi
got the phone on weds and am having problem writing texts. only happened 3 or 4 times but very annoying. as im writing all of a sudden the more i type it deletes what ive already wrote. and then on 2 occasions the screen freezes and you cant do anything. turning the phone off for a few mins then it seems to be ok again. it also only seems to do this when the battery is running low so that might be why.
the battery is very short apparantly you get 4hours talk time and 8 hours standby which is pants
other than that i love the phone

just to let you know, I got this phone over a week ago and have had to charge it 5 times already! Just in the process of sending it back. I've always had Nokia phones and thought i would try this one as it looks so sweet. It really needs updating!!!

I hae a Vk530 and had trouble with the inbox - if your phone turns itself off when you try and read a text message you have received, it is apparantely a known fault. Call 19086 from your phone and they will talk you through the steps to fix this. alternatively you can press *#27# (hold down the hash key until is says WAIT - then release the hash key. this will clear the fault. YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR TEXT MESSAGES AND PICTURE MESSAGES ETC. So only do this if cannot get to txt messages - a real pain. love the phone tho!

Well i saw so many bad reviews about this phone that i thought i ought to post a good one! i honestly havnt had any problems but then i wasnt expecting high standards from it! yes the battery life is low but at the end of the day you are paying for a pink, specialised girly phone, not a top of the range technical wizard! if like me you are after a bit of fun and a cute girly phone that can make calls and text then go for it! if you are wanting a phone thats a lot more high tech try a different one!

Thought this phone looked really cool but am now having to send back - the usual problems - losing txts, switching itself off when I try to retrieve them, battery running out really quickly. Hoping new one will have all these sorted!

I bought the VK 530 yesterday, and have problems all ready, the handset wont even switch on and it keeps making a weird fizzing noise like it was short cuirciting or sumit. I phoned the vodafone help line and they told me it was MY SIM Card that was the problem (even tho i tried to explain to them that the phone will not switch on whether the sim is in it or not) then when i asked them for the number of the store that i bought it from (even spelt it out to them), she insisted that where I lived didnt exsist, coz she couldnt find it on her computer .... after getting very annoyed and hanging up I then phoned bck and spoke to someone who was very helpful managed to put my town bck on the map ! Gave me the number and assured me that they will exchange it in the shop due to it being faulty !! So fingers crossed the next one is better, but reading about everyone elses problems I am having second thoughts and just thinking of canceling all together before I am tied in for the 18 months .... any advice ???
