Running R1CB001
I assume from the UK - it was a o2 upgrade.

I just did a keyboard test on the service tests menu >*
Sometimes when pressing the camera button it reports as ON/OFF...
now that can't bee good!

Paid £50 or so, so not too bad.

Managed to get a pretty sweet deal - was haggling with the guy
for 30 mins... he went of to talk to his manager 3 times.

Got 600 mins (or was it 400 can't remember)
500 texts
and 2 MB data transfer for 2 months.
12 Month contract for £25

Seeing as I hardly used the phone before (on a online 100), not too bad a deal.

Yeah, used the keyboard service test.

bas&%$.
i lost my phone 14days before I was due to upgrade.
they said i had to pay £45 to upgrade early, and offered £25 for 400mins and 500txts but that was it said the the phone would cost me £79.99. i was previously on online O2 200, and they said i had to spend an average of £50 a month to get that phone for free, and i was like I'm not paying for a new phone.
So i reduce my tariff to £20 and am cancelling in 30days.
went out next day to shops picked up K800 in orange shop offering best deal where i traded in a Nokia 3210 for £100 credit on account, and bought K800 for £50 on a student package, 200mins 1000txt and 3 months of 30 vid calls and 1000MB per month .
and I called orange up after about a mistake in the orange book and they gave me another £20 credit on my account for the inconvinence.
therefore i like orange and don't like O2.

Nice! That sounds like a good deal... so do you have 1000MB a month for 3 months or the whole contract? If the whole contract its worth having t2 contracts o2 for calls and orange for data.

Just got of the phone from o2. They sorted it out incredibly quickly!

I'm glad I phoned today, because its been less than 48 hours (or something like that).... A courier will be at my door step tomorrow with a new phone and I think take mine as well (I hope - need to check my confrmation e-mail)!

I think I may report the fault to sony ericsson as a bug.

Sweet!

how long have you been with O2? they seem to be v. kind to you....
its for 3 months free. but they said that if I wanted to carry it on it would cost £4 a month.
but the thing is i think he was confused because there is no way you can get 30mins video calling and 1000MB and month for £4.... i'm sure the orange site says

Orange World Access (GPRS) monthly price MB included cost per MB out of bundle
Orange World Access 4 £4 4MB £1 per MB

Orange World Access 10 £8 10MB £0.80 per MB


but i swear they guy on the phone said if i want to keep the 1000Mb etc then just don't phone up and cancell! i'll have to check, when i phone up they might offer me more money. hehe

you could have gone into an o2 shop and taken the upgrade for free and asked them for the deal!

Online tariffs upgrades are based on monthly spend and not tariff alone.I had a massive argument with retentions on behalf of a customer (I work for o2) because they wanted to charge him £160 for an n70 upgrade...the phone is free on all tariffs, in the end I told them to change the tariff he was on and I upgraded him for free to that phone from my shop.

I did go into the o2 shop and spoke to a women in there and explained the situation and she said that i'd still have to pay for it unless i bought a tarriff of £35 a month or more.
and then I thought about buying online but then i would have to wait for delivery and the o2 shop said that i couldn't take one of theres, where as orange could get me the phone there and then.
all i wanted from O2 was an upgrade a couple of days early because i'd lost my phone and the tarriff they offered me and the free upgrade to K800i, turns out they couldn't do it and i'd been with O2 on contract for 2 years, and on pay as you go before that now i'm gonna stick with orange cos them seem to treat me right

When I was talking to the retention guy. He said that they couldn't offer me the phone free as only highstreet stores can retain based upon monthly spend.

He recommended that if I wanted to get the phone for free, I could visit a shop. But as I did have a pretty sweet deal and I'm too lazy to go to the shop (I live in the sticks - so there miles away), just decided to go for it. I don't think I could off got the same deal based upon my monthly spend (I rarely go over what my contract covers).
