Britain's Cheapest Mobile Available For Under A Fiver

Mon, 17 Nov 2008

Carphone Warehouse is offering cash-strapped customers the chance to buy a mobile phone for less than a fiver.

The high street retailer is selling the Samsung B130 Black pay-as-you-go (PAYG) handset for just £4.95, which it claims is the cheapest UK price for a mobile phone .

However, the widely-promoted £4.95 headline price is only valid when the phone is purchased with £10 of credit .

The ultra-cheap handset, exclusive to Carphone Warehouse, is being marketed towards credit-crunched consumers in the run up to the Christmas shopping season.

The no-frills handset weighs 67g and includes a large keypad, colour display, MP3 ringtones, a USB port and basic WAP browsing.

Carphone Warehouse CEO Andrew Harrison commented: "When the bills are going up we're committed to bringing our customers products they can afford with a credit-crunch-busting mobile for under a fiver."

The mobile phones retailer also offers the Fly V60 mobile handset for £4.95 and a number of other basic handsets for £9.95.
