A mobile mess

As I wrote yesterday, I have decided that my present mobile phone is not suitable, and had ordered a new one.I was told that it would be delivered today and of course waited most of the day for it. It finally turned up at about three this afternoon.

I got unpacking it to get it going, and of course the first thing you do is to transfer your SIM and memory card into it. (Or at least I do as I want to keep the same number) But no, it is not that easy. I was told that I could transfer my old SIM and that would be no problem. 

It turned out that it would be a problem after all as the bloody SIM would not go in. I managed to get the memory card in after some fiddling, (and actually checking the instructions properly!) but the SIM this phone takes is a nano or micro SIM. And of course this happened to be the only bloody phone that did not come with one! 

So on to Virgin mobile to explain the situation, and the nice young lady there said yes we can send one out, but it will not come for another 24 hrs. A complete waste of a day again. Why cannot they get these things right in the first place? 

So, what else did I do today? Apart from some housework, nothing. A boring waste of a day again, all for a bloody phone.
