Just been speaking to Fleet Communications in New Eltham (london) and they insist that the cost of the upgrade from T68m to T68i software is £19.95 plus VAT, I'm sure it should be a free upgrade. Is this the case, are they trying to rip me off? |

They maybe want money for the time they are spending on the upgrade, but it sound like a bit to much. |

This service should be offered free of charge. The service centre gets payed by SonyEricsson for performing the upgrade. I suggest you ring SonyEricsson to complain about this service centre. |

Go to another SP.
All the SPs here in Sweden that I've had contact with are doing this upgrade for free!

Hi i also wnt to fleet communications about the upgrade.
they said that it cost 20 pounds for the T68i upgrade not the T68m upgrade. they do not have it and have only R2D when i phoned earlier today. do you know where there is another service centre close by? if not i may go to Bluewater to get it done at CPW. |

Every upgrade should be made FREE in LEGAL/Authorized Sony Ericsson service centre!
Have updated mine phone (T68m) twice - first to R2B013 and second to R2B025 (MMS software) and both times upgrades was free even without any guarantee papers etc. ... phone just should be "Ericsson" or "Sony Ericsson"!! |

Hehe no problem. A t68m has the ability to walk while i prefer pay that the i dances becos it vibrates on the melody rythm. On the m just enable the vibrator and let someone call u it'll walk too. :-o

Yer, they said that to me too.
Apparently SE informed Fleet Comms that the SW upgrade was chargable to the consumer(sometime ago)-So I was told by Fleet? anyway Fleet now know it's for free to us-and SE have to foot-the-bill.
 Fleet Comms upgraded my fone 2day-FOC
from what i noticed- apart from the data comms settings all other info was erased including the Orabge image.....yippee
