Following on from its launch on T-Mobile back in February of this year and more recently on Orange in March and O2 this month the LG Arena can now be purchased without a network agreement, the SIM Free edition of this latest LG phone has now been launched in the UK with no network ties or contracts to be used on all network providers utilising an existing SIM card.

LG Arena

The SIM Free LG Arena also known as the LG KM900 is completely unlocked to all operators, the user is able to insert their pay as you go or pay monthly SIM card and use the phone as they wish with no extra ongoing line rental charges, the great news for many is that there are no credit checks either so even those with a poor credit score will be able to purchase the LG Arena SIM free phone.

Although SIM free phones do demand a slightly higher price than a prepay alternative this reflects the freedom of not being locked to any one network, it also allows consumers to buy the LG Arena as a gift for others without signing up to a lengthy contract.
