Mine was a 110 euro smart phone I bought 3 years ago, great phone,use it for calls, texts, google maps, youtube etc . I honestly don't think you need to be spending much more on one in the taxi game. The main reason I wouldn't buy an expensive phone is you may as well have a bundle of money lying on your dash, it is just asking to be robbed if you are ever mugged. no mugger would want my 3 year old phone.

I’ve seen some very expensive handsets in full display in taxis, usually stopped at a set of lights with the window down.

Bob. You could move the personal phone to Voda for €20 a month payg..... Unlimited any network calls and texts and 10GB of data. If the 10GB is enough for you you are getting a much better network than Tesco for the same price.
-
Thanks, but couldn't be doing with topping up, 10Gb not enough
-
I haven't topped up my personal phone in over 2 years. I only use it if im going out. I divert my calls from the taxi phone to another taxi mates phone, then bring the 2 phones out with me, if any of my mates want me they ring my personal phone, if im looking for them i ring them off my taxi phone.

A lot of the Chinese phones have 2 SIM slots nowadays. Might save you carrying 2 phones around and looking like a drug dealer :P :P :P

Anyone else download the Gold Radio app? Great stuff. It's got something for everyone. Dedicated 70s 80s and 90s stations, news stations etc. It's essentially the ones that you have on your sky music channels - Heart, LBC etc etc. Well worth a TRY. A lot better than some of the tripe being churned out here.

I must double check. I usually don't use all the features my phones have.

My non work phone is a Nokia Lumia 950 windows, nearly 7 years old everything fine except no more updates not supported by what's app and the other social media yokes, but it has a mighty camera I can text and call use youtube, works for me.

That is where Ratcatcher's last phone was snatched from.
Ever since he told the story I have been more astute when parked/ranked up.

I have an iphone 8 or 9 (can't remember) but big screen, cost 150 notes outlay on a 24 month vodafone business plan fer 48 a month.
I know it's expensive but it does what it sez on the tin.

I know you're technically in "business" but do you really need the business plan? might be worth downgrading to a lower plan with less "free stuff" you probably don't use

I don't know Martin, the Business account that I have is continued on from my last job in the bookie game (when the company used to pay the bills) but it still works today and as a business customer you do get a superior helpline service.
Any time I ring them they blind me with science, but it works and works well so I just pay 'em fer a simple life.
