Hello all
Basically I am having to put an insurance claim in for my old XDA and the insurance company need me to get quotes for a replacement (which will be the XDA2). However, having searched many places in the UK everywhere can only give me prices for contract XDA2's.
Does anybody know of shops or retail outlets that will sell the XDA2 sim free??? O2 themselves won't, Carphone Warehouse etc won't so apart from Ebay (which I do not know if the insurance company would be happy with) I am a bit stuck.
Any one offer any advice??
With thanks

Hi,
The only place I know about is http://www.expansys.co.uk . The price is expensive though as its sim free, but if your not paying. Who cares :D
Rgds,

Moonmonkey, can you give more details about this offer, they are selling you an xda2 without a contract at £300? I didnt think O2 sold phones unless they hooked you to a contract.

It doesn't matter if you get one locked to O2 as within this web site is the software to unlock it. It will have the O" logo and settings in it but that doesn't matter as you can change the ROM as well. I've lost the link within the site for it but it's free and works. just follow the easy instructions.

I'm buying mine sim free as its a replacement phone to my xda1 and I don't want another contract..Erm well normally they sell it sim free for something stupid like £400-450 and with contract for £350...they reduced the price to £300 earlier this year then down to £200something with contract so the price for simfree naturally went down aswell...I'll fill you in when I get bck from the shop hopefully later today

Good luck Moonmonkey, regardless of price if you can find any o2 shops that have the xda II in stock i'll be impressed.
If only o2 spent a small part of there advertising budget keepng there distribution channels properly stocked!

here is the link, make sure you can collect, it looks genuine to me but be aware of scammers, do not part with cash until sure, the guy wants immediate payment via paypal.
