I'd agree on the throwaway phone, but virgin because you can get a phone for
a tenner (with a mandatory £5 credit voucher, so £15 in all). Recruiters
never seem to leave me voicemail, so that's fairly irrelevant for me.

But if you're getting a cheap virgin phone, get the cheap nokia they have.
The samsung slide phone is crap, with the worst user interface of any phone
I've ever had the displeasure of using. I know you don't get a lot for a
tenner, but the nokia is actually usable.

Cheers,
