I just bought a Nokia 2630 only to get booted unceremoniously out of the Hotlink system. Is this handset likely to be supported at some stage, or are my days of easy prepay over?

Can any Vodafone people comment?

Cheers,

Matt.

Nokia 2630 is approved

Please post the first 8 digits of the IMEI for your handset

I tried to approve the iphone 3G but there is a issue I think its cause the IMEI starts with 0

Indeed it does.. that's a real shame (and a rather arbitrary system limitation.. IMEI's being stored as a number rather than string?)

Thanks anyways.

You're a legend, John. I'm still getting the error message, but will try again later to see if things settle down.

Thanks,

Matt.

Put the SIM into another handset then back into the Nokia
