My primary contract at the moment is on t-mobile where I have 3,000 minutes (off peak) to any network. I use about 2,000 a month, as these minutes are going to be on-peak as well I'm assuming I'll use the majority...

Don't really need the texts, but picture messages simply take off 4 regular text messages so that's handy. Also i've been offered it, i'm not going to turn it down and request a lesser amount.

Oh btw it is one of the new "simplicity" deals as seen on the website. However on the o2 website the £35 deal gives 1,200 x-net minutes & 1,000 texts. If you're an existing customer, for the next 7 days you can get 3,000 of each like me.

Just tell them you're leaving and they'll tell you about the deal

The best bit is your not entering into a lengthy contract, just 30 days... which renews itself. You can cancel at any time you like just pay off that months bill.

Perfect until the iPhones out!

@bumfilter

If you are getting a BB and intend using Data that 75mb per month Data is worthless as as soon as you use it up any extra Data will bankrupt you personally i think that deal sucks for £50pm. Go to look at the Flext £35pm deal and add the Web N Walk £7.50 1GB per month. Which is cheaper and i believe offers about the same amount of texts and minutes but you are free to use more or less of each allowance as suits you best. Sorry but 02 Data makes using their service a no no as heavy Data usage will bump your bill big time IMHO.

My contract is up in November and i'm not sure what to do really. I'm wanting to get a blackberry until the iPhone is released and just wondered if you can get an unlimited data bolt on from o2 for pay and go. I just never use the minutes or txts up so don't see the point in paying £35 a month for it. And the data for contract is an extra £10 per month.

My contract finishes on the 23rd of this month

Unfortunately, I obviously can't get the iPhone and so I may get an N95

Does anybody think this deal is possible (or something similar)

Free Nokia N95
200 Minutes
150 Texts
5/10 MB
Around £20-25 line rental (12 months)

Also, can I please have some top tips

It seems as though the best thing to do is get through to retentions...right?

Please reply - Thanks a lot in advance

Ok so its upgrade time again aka give me something good or I'll leave time. I called up last week before the end of 11 months and before I was due an upgrade was offered a

u600
600 mins
500 text
12 month contract
£40 a month

Dont think so, told the girl that voda were offering via mobiles2yourdoor

12 months free
12 month contract
500 mins
500 text
and a u600

Was told to call back when I'm into my 12th month and they would offer something comparative, don't know if it helps I'm a business customer but we'll see how it goes won't we? Going to play the I'm planning on at least another 1 phone on the contract in the next few months so if you want to retain my business then sort it.

Lets see how I get on!!!

I would love it if they gave me that Simplicity deal

"400 Texts and 200mins"

for £15 on a 18 month contract.. there data is improving so if they gave me this deal I would seriousley stay but if not i'll go to three.

seriousley tho I think they should do it im on a 12 month contract atm and I don't mind going on a 18mth contract for that above!

has anyone tried to get this deal with them?

Was originally on £35 p/m 1000 xnet and 100 txts with o2 (k800i), coming to an end in december. Have baggd myself an early upgrade (by almost 3 months), and the deal i got is:

Free N95, online 30 tarrif which is 500 xnet mins and 100 txts, normal price £30, i got it for £15, which i think is a great deal however i'm going to phone them again and see if i can pay maybe £5 more an get more minutes.

They originally offered to keep me on the same tarrif i was on but reduce it to £20. however i wanted the new 'unlimited' data bolt on, but they said this was not possible on the old tarrifs, hence why i got moved to one of the new tarrifs. PS my average bill in total is normally £35 for the tarrif plus the £5 or so insurance.

comparing to 2 the deal i have just got (free n95, 3 month early upgrade, 500 xnet min + 100 txts + 200mb data for £22.50 total), id say a lot of ppl on here are getting rippd off, or just not being smart enough.

Just remember, the ppl at retentions r not robots. they are humans, they all work differently, u will get a diff deal from each person every time u ring, there are no 'set' deals, it just depends on the discretion of the person u get, how much discount he has 2 play with at that time etc etc

don't know exactly what criteria they use, but i assume it must be what your average spend is, rather then what tarrif ur on. i think if you have insurance it makes a big difference as well, as i said i was on a £35 tarrif, an my cousin is on a £35 tarrif, however he wasn't offered as much a discount as i was, i can only assume its b'cos i have insurance as well and he doesn't. my average bill is around £41 p/m, which includes the £5 p/m for insurance.
