Virgin Mobile - Nokia N78

I am thoroughly impressed with Virgin Mobile. Not only were they the fastest to reply to my query BUT they also have the N78 IN STOCK!

Yes Steven We do have the Nokia N78 retailing for less than R5400

Time to check out Virgin Mobile!

    Hi Jake,

    I’m not sure, I also called their call center and they were very sure of themselves. I am busy writing a post now explaining that Nokia contacted me and told me the Nokia N78 would only get here in October this year!

    Me thinks Virgin Mobile are confusing the N73 and the N78!

    Okay so the confusion continues. the Nokia N73 on pre-pay is charged at R3800 so they can’t be confusing the N78 with the N73. I calle Virgin Direct and they confirmed that they have stock, and that I would be able to get at any Virgin Mobile stores, upon phoning two of their stores I got a reply from both that they don’t stock the phone.

    So I phoned Virgin Mobile back, they said that currently the phone is sold out, I asked them when will they get stock again and I was told that they will find out and phone me back, the operator did confirm though that the phone is on special for R5399???

    I think they smoking their socks, honestly, if Nokia says its not available here yet then I think Virgin are doing all they can to get a client and will import the phone for you.

    I wouldn’t be surprised is Virgin is smoking something about the N78,
    the service/lies/deceit Adri & I got from Vrigin so far is something out of Twilight Zone.
