Hi Guys,
11 Months ago I purchased a D600 on my £20 per month o2 online tariff for only £79.95 not a bad price back then, but anyhows nearr the time again to upgrading myphone ive made some enquiries to o2 online about prices of these phones eg the
N73 £179.99
K800i £129.99
Z650i £199.99
Im really disgusted what the hell is going on how can a Samsung Z650i be more than a Silver K800i? when thats only got a 2.0MP Camera
I then phoned my local o2 shop they Quoted me £135 for that Samsung still £5 more than the K800i lol
does anyone have any light into whats happening with the Upgrade prices??? cos atm it really seems pointless having a contract especially when prepay phones are near enough the same price as the contract upgrades
Ps, let me just say ive also changed my contract so im now paying £25 per month, even that makes no difference it seems in a reduction

It's not about how much your contract is... The networks make there money when you go over you preset bill!
do that more often and ya upgrade fee's will plumet!

Go through to the disconnections dept and ask for your pac code. Your upgrade should get a lot better then.

Burgaz is correct.
With 02. If your monthly bill is £50 or more per month (including line charge + calls,SMS etc) for 6 consecutive months they then put you as a 02 Select customer.
This entitles you to:
10% discount on accessories purchased from 02
Early upgrade of your handset (up to 3 months early)
Free calls to their customer care centre in the UK
Tarrif review every 3 months
There is some other things but I dont have the card with me atm
The condition is that your monthly bill must not drop below £50 per month.

They charged me £10 for a 3g sim card, I really wanna stay with o2 but there getting way to expensive. I got told if I was paying £35 per mth id get a free Z650i you guys paying that £40 should get a free phone no both.

They charged you for a 3g sim card Kerry ?????
They sent mine for free after I bought my K800.
When I did my upgrade I was ofered the following (my monthly bills inc calls, sms, gprs usage etc are £70 per month)
K800 - Free
W850 - Free
P990 - £50
They were the only phone I'd asked about. I went for the W850 as I'd already got the K800 and 02 couldn't give a definite date on when I'd get the P990.
