Mobius Needs a Phone?

Im reaching out to the community, My 8gb IPhone 4 has given up the ghost and doesn't want to work anymore.
I also don't want some expensive phone plan just to get a new phone as my current £10 a month sim only plan is more than enough for my needs.
So Does anyone in the community have an old IPhone 4 or better that is working but is of no use to them and is perfectly happy to give it away?.

I just emptied my coffers on a new server, but I can at least offer a suggestion to any that might be able to help.

Depends what you need it to do.
A few years back I went from a Sammsung first gen note to a
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nokia-101Dual-S ... =nokia+101 , It cost me maybe 25£ and I would only need to charge it once every three weeks.
Sure it wouldn't surf the web or anything like that but it worked, If i was heading off into nowhere I would bring that phone before my S6 that's for sure .

Whatever you do don't go for a Windows phone. They are shite. If offered one then polite accept it and then use it when you next need to level a table up.
Luckily the one I had was from work and I've gone back to iPhone. Sorry nothing here that I can pass on.

I am waiting for a Dual Sim Lumia 950 to be delivered. (Yes Windows 10 phone) If it suits me needs (encrypted email etc) I will have two iphone 5s to spare.
But I don't expect the test to finish before a month or so because of the heavy workload...
In any case I will let you know once I have one to spare...

agreed, i have an S5 on order from EBay as a replacement for my current Lumia 630 Cowpat. the Cowpat has lots of features i'll never use but seems to be missing all the basic ones i needed (big clock, externally visible missed call indicator, etc.)
and as for the guy who recommended the Cowpat to me... i will bide my time. i just need to find a way to get one of his shoes into the toilet without raising suspicion.
