Samsung A117 Flip Phone REFURB - $9.99 Shipped

AT&T GoPhone has the Samsung A117 Flip Phone REFURB for $9.99 Shipped.

Add the phone to your cart. Add a plan at the popup screen. Once at your shopping cart screen, make sure "No thanks, give me a new number" is selected then remove the $25 airtime card (click OK at the resulting popup). Now checkout.

If you want to sign up for a plan and get airtime, leave the $25 in the cart.

If you already use GoPhone, just put your current SIM card in and your ready to go.

This can be unlocked easily to work on other networks. A good backup phone.

FYI: You actually can get this phone for free if you buy it through some Cash Back websites. For example, Dealking, DealDigs and Moneyjar have $9.99 Cash Back on this phone which makes it FREE.

FYI 2: Option 1 unlock does not work. You can only unlock using option 2!

I have this same phone. I've been pretty hard on it-back pocket and I'm 220 pounds -- held up for 9 months so far.
Unlocked it easily.
Ordered 3 at this price- the unlock good for use in South America I hope.
If not, my Dad has this ATT w 5 lines for his biz- so good to have an extra

No, you don't need to signup any plan in getting these cash backs.

And for the usual set of questions -

1. This phone does not work on Verizon or Sprint, it only works on AT&T / Cingular and T-Mobile (after unlocking)
2. Its dual band, not quad band, so will not work in Europe or Asia (including India).

In my experience with dealdigs you won't get the promised CashBack unless you file numerous complaints. Be prepared to file with the BBB, FTC, your state's attorney general, etc.
