Even if my phone model is not on the list, who's going to stop me from using it anyway?

Well [I]sha[/I], my phones are on the list.
Sony Ericsson K700i and P910i ...

I can notice that the Nokia N-Gage is not included in the list.
Anyway, I have no stress

@mamba. bros I wonder oh? well I guess the information was released just as an advice. I use a nokia 1100, so I'm good.

That list must have been composed in 1960!!! Take a look at it again. On what planet do the NCC guys live?

My 9500 is not on the list, so who's going to arrest me for that? The sight of the phone enough will freeze them in their tracks :-D

Abeg, forget that list and let's talk something else. Or maybe I could get NCC to hire (spelt P-A-Y) me to update their list regularly to reflect current trends. Anybody knows Ndukwe's GSM number? :-D

@AYA, you can just post your suggestion on their website! That list is not exhaustive.

Well, to the best of my knowledge NCC is busy licensing and doing little of regulation in Telecom sector, especially the handset aspect. That's why people bring in all kinds of mobile phones including those that are not compatible with the network.

   Has it come to this?
      CAn u imagine my phone am even saying is obsolete is not there,samsung A800.MAke them thank their God say I never get careless money I go just g buy  SGH-p735 carry am enter their office.this one they no go bold talk.I tell u. Bythe timedon see phone. Them all go rush go buy am.

Seun, did you ask them if it made sense to list/approve any type of Handset?
What is the motive?
Can they control which Handset works or not or which one the consumer inserts his SIM?
Did they buy the Handset for us or was it on loan to us

Have they finished their constitutional responsibility of ensuring we have good quality service from the Providers?
What have they done about the cost of Broadband and the epileptic service we get, for that price?

So, its this 1970 list that they have been working on?

Extend my Congrats to them o

"Bunkum" ars*holes!
