For the past 5yrs ive had the same tariff which had 100mins calls unlimited wap and text free from o2. But ive been wanting GPRS / MMS for years and o2 wouldn't let me have it unless I changed tariffs, so this evening ive phoned them to change it all they could give me was 50mins free calls and 200 texts and 1MB of GPRS. I know im upto date now but have I made the right decision? I would've liked about 300+ texts and 100 calls but they wont let me :-l if I found anuv tariff say on Voda with will they Match it o2 I mean?

That is utter pants! I have just joined o2 and got a K800i free, 200 minutes and 500 txt. For somebody who has been with them 5 years they could have offered you alot more.

If they are trying to get people off a certain tarriff (i.e. it's not making them enough money!) they'll withdraw certain benefits or withhold them in order to 'persuade' you to change, i remember this happening when I was on one2one (before it became T-Mob) and it was a tariff where you paid the line rental up front and just paid for anything outside of your free mins and texts, they stopped it, and withdrew any free upgrade handsets when you renewed the contract and things like that. I then left them for O2!

there phoning me up tomorrow so I think im gonna go for the Online Leisure 25 Standard tariff it's £5 more a month but you get 1000 free minutes to any UK network and 500 free text messages.
I was really dissapointed by them earlier I was even thinking about joining another network but I cannot find anything good besides orange and id miss the 1471
I just hope I get more a reduction off the new phones now every year

Well I was with o2 and had 200 mins and 500 texts for £25 a month and being the impatient guy I am I went and opened a new contract with Orange a month before my upgrade and they offered me 1000 texts and 200 mins a month for £30. I thought yeh £5 month more and more texts and calls, then when my upgrade was due, o2 offered me 900 texts, 200 mins for £20 a month and instead of another handset, £100 in vouchers so basically 5 months free use!
Actually making a post relating to this thread, the new deal your going to get sounds very good miss uk, just try and haggle say 3 months free GPRS, off-peak or something, becuase thats what Orange gave me.

give em a hard time! I would perhaps call one of the other networks (they always love converting other network users) and see what you can get before you negotiate!

just had another look at the other nertworks websites,
02 clearly have the best offers atm, but then Virgin Mobile are doing a good deal 200 free calls and 500 texts every month for 12 months after that it costs £20 per month, but I dunno what there like they seem abit Virgin'ish to me
I wanna have a look at T-Mobile but there site int working

miss uk, whatever you go for rememeber the t-mobile flext tarrefs where you get somethng on the line of £180 of credit for £30 a month (free phone included) (thats either about 900mins or over 1000 texts - used however)... im with orange and i quoted them the flext deal and they offered me this:
Free w810i,
500mins any network
600texts
12 months free insurance
6 months @£15 line rental and £30 for the last 12months (18month contract - but you can obviously upgrade early with orange

)
This was about 4-5 months back now though so you should be aiming for at least this....
personally if you cant get an offer like this id go for T-mobile flext, heres teh deal:
http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/Dis[....]e_plan&ppid=903&pf=Flext+plans
with this tarref most phones are free....
Up to you but just something for you to think about
then if you realy wanted you could add web'n'nwalk for £7.50 for free internet.... youd really have plenty of everything then....
