    Ok, for you to reach the Vertu Concierge number then its most likely real, as most replicas (so I have been told) do not have the Concierge button or phone number. And by looking at the back of the phone, it looks real to me. You got a Smokin Great Deal if that is the case Pap! Good For You!

    Thanks mate. :):)

    The Concierge button is circled in red in the pic. You hold that down for a second or two to start dialling their number. :):)

    I still could be wrong, but I have a feeling its a genuine one. It still may not be. Either way, it doesnt really matter. :):)

    Thanks for your advice and help. :):)

    Pap, call the concierge service. If they answer and can get you a table at any fancy restaurant tonight or tickets for any show , its real..if they give you the number of Pizza Hut, its fake :)

    Heya mate, I havent dealt with them sorry. I just found that link on the net. :):)

    Thanks Jim, I will investigate/strip it down and report back to you. :D:D

    I called them man, it rang some HUGE long number. It called a few times then I **** myself and hung the phone up. :eek::eek:

    I dont remember the number now, but I can put the sim card back in and check it out maybe. Is there a way to find out a phone number online without calling it?? Punch it in google perhaps? :D:D

    PAP,

    may i know whereabout did you acquire the phone from?
    as much as I like your vertu to be real, i sadly think it is a fake.
    one strong reason being the engraved DJPT POSTEL in the same engraving as 'made in UK'
    i bet it is a chinese fake made for indonesian market.

    DJPT is the abbrev for Dirjen Pajak Pos and Telekomunikasion
    POSTEL is the abbrev for Pos and Telekomunikasion

    DJPT is the indonesian tax governing body for any postal and communication goods and services. So engraving 'DJPT - POSTEL' does not make sense, does it?
    DJPT's serial number wouldn't be available until the goods are imported into the country
    so there is no wayy the guys in Hampshire could have any idea on what numbers to engrave. most imported phones are numbered using some kind of warranty stickers anyway.

    the last time i checked on vertu copies, they sold for US$60 shipped to indonesia
    probably they made couple of hundred bucks profit from selling you one @$320
    obviously we may want to avoid doing small scale business with them aight?

    Hello my friend. Thanks for the info, VERY interesting. :):)

    I bought my phone off Ebay from a seller in Australia. The seller told me he bought it and never used it. He didnt tell me where he bought it from though. Since ive had it, ive never used it either. Its too nice to use and abuse. :D:D

    I dont know if its a fake or not. But it doesnt really bother me. If I paid $320 for a $60 phone then thats life. Its done now and I aint getting upset over something that I bought 2 yrs ago. :D:D

    But thankyou very much for your help/info. I wonder if there is a way to contact Vertu to enquire if my phone actually IS a fake? :):)

    Ill look into it. :):)

    Thanks again. :):)
