One option i have is to buy a phone outright and not be tied in a 24 month contract.

Was browsing through carphonewarehouse website under payg phones and noticed some phones were cheaper on T-mobile or orange network when compared to virgin.

1. Are carphonewarehouse supplied phones linked to the network or are they unlocked?

2. Will the virgin sim work in an orange or t-mobile phone? Normally i would say no to this but i am aware that the virgin network will use orange (and t-mobile?) network when it's signal is weak.

I'm assured that all the phones they sell at my local carphone warehouse are unlocked.
