Hi guys, not very interestings, but does anyone know why T-Mobile only offer the classic blue T39? I wanted to get the light blue one but told I couldn't get it on T-Mobile.
This was also the case when I bought the PF768, many years ago. There were several colours available but One 2 One only offered the grey one.
Can anyone shed any light on this trivial topic.
Thanks

Why go on one2one anyway, limited choice of handsets. |

T-Mobile has limited reception if you live in the country mainly.
what other network offers 3000 minutes of free calls to the same network and national land lines.
limited choice of coulours would probably be down to the manufacturers agreement in providing the handsets to the service provider...but speculating wastes time...call and ask them. |

#The light blue seems to be rare, I know T-Mobile only offer the 1 , but when I tried to buy the light blue on Vodafone I was told it wasnt available, perhaps stock shortages make T-Mobile (and Orange ) to only offer the 1 colour, probably easier for stock control as well. |

The reason I use T-Mobile is because I get excellent signal and they have excellent customer service. If I ever have any problems they always sort it promptly and all always credit my account as an apology.
I have been with T-Mobile (One 2 One) for many years, I still get the free calls after 7pm and free calls all weekend.
I have never had any reason to change to any other network.

Simple explanation as to why T-Mobile UK offer classic blue T39:
Ericsson mass produce classic blue colour only
T-mobile UK require mass supplies of the phone per month
Only option available is to take delivery of classic blue to satisy huge demand |

becuase one2one locks them, then they have to make one huge order of one colour to be able to get the locking option for free |
