I pre-ordered with O2 last week, im a new customer and went for the 18 month contract - 300 xmin + 750 txt for £30 pm = free phone... ideal for me as im on vodafone at the mo and my bills are extortionate.. i rang O2 today as the order tracking is not working online and the guy told me its out on the 28th......

OK, i just rand up, here's my story:
Said i'd been offered a deal with Orange for 400 mins and 1000 texts for £30 - he said they couldn't really match it.
The he said he could put me on an 18 month tariff for £30 and i'd get double mins and texts but I said I wasn't going to go on an 18-month tariff. I then said I was only interested in the k800 to which he said he could not give me for free - as there would be a charge of £49.99, but he'd do me a deal for £20 a month for 500mins and 500texts. I said that sounds slightly better (although I'd prefer more texts to be honest) - he then said he couldn't order it through until 7th July when the phone gets released!! Grrr - he told me to call back then. Any advice? Is the k800 available now? Maybe the retention people think it's not.
If I ring back, I think I'm gonna say I've rang orange and they'll do me the k800 for free! I don't really wanna pay £50 for it if I can help it

Called 02 again today to upgrade (normal customer care number) and was advised that whilst the phone is launched today, they couldn't do anything on the phone until they actually had them in stock. The woman I spoke said she could have sold dozens of them herself today had she been able to do so. She advised ringing again late on Wednesday and confirmed that they are likely to go quick once they are available.

Well O2 really don't like me. They still wanted £179.99 for the handset. It's insane. I know have my PAC code and I'm looking for somewhere else to go. Shame, that O2 are been silly. I can get the handset on the same traiff I have for £49.99 as a new customer.
Think I will transfer my number on to a pay as you go, and start a new contract, so will get Online 50, 50 mins + 200 text for £19pm, and £49.99 for the handset.

Ha har, I started me barter my mateys!
Is this a good deal for o2?
500 MINS X NET
100 TEXTS
FREE K800i
1MB FREE BROWSING.
£25.00 PM
I'm gonna try and get free video calling, but what do you guys think? I have spent on average around £60 per month over the last 12 months with them. Can I squeeze some more? This was done by charming a nice lady sales rep not the rententions department.....

Video calling comes out of your free minutes as far as i am aware and everyone gets 1mb a month free, the rest of the deal seems ok.

Ok, after looking through this thread i have realised you can get a lot out of o2 if you try!
Im looking to go on to contract when i get my k800i, i am currently on o2 pay as you go. will i be able to barter much with o2?
Or perhaps not seeing as how i am new to contract, although i am on pay as you go right now.
My perfect contract would be something like (12 month contract):
300 anytime minutes
300 texts
5mb for the internet
free video calling
free k800i
How much do you think i could get this for a month?
£20 - £25 would be great
