Why not just get the phone on Virgin?

I think its free on Virgins £10 a month package.

Probably because he said he wanted it on pay as you go

anyway >>

its actually free on the £12.26 tariff (the £10.00 tariff is actually £10.21 now due to the vat increase in january)

the phone will cost £159.99 if you want it on virgin pay as you go

the other 2 answers didnt really answer your question, but I dont know if a phone locked to t-mobile will work with Virgin Mobile. If you needed to get it unlocked, somewhere like the phonebooth could probably do it for about £20

So buy the phone for £159.99 then £15 a month on topups =£340 ish over 12 months.

Pay VM £12 a month get the phone free plus texts and minutes included £147 over 12 months.

An no it wont work on T mobile.

I have a Virgin Mobile HTC Desire and it works on T Mobile, its the same network as Virgin so I would think there should be no problem with Blackberry

Re: t mobile phone on virgin
