Can anyone recommend the above for an 82year old neighbour. She only needs it in case of emergency, maybe a few calls to family, but doesn't need any extras at all except it should be easy to see too, but preferably not those huge numbers some seem to have on them. TIA rosy

My wife got a pay-as-you-go phone from Carphone Warehouse for £5.
It works well but your neighbour would have to check if she can see the numbers OK.
Bought a Samsung 3010 (I think) from Tesco for £10 and they also do a low usage Pay-as-you-go SIM card. Costs 8p a minute.
Its got to be one of the basic Nokias surely? All the technophobes I know use the basic models
something like this perhaps?

The above phone is highly recommended by several oap's I know that were introduced to them by an old folks group I know of.
