The very worst they could say is 'no'.

Gotta be worth a shot!

My W810i is due to arrive tomorrow. O2 have sent me an email confirming it was posted today and the dhl website shows it as being collected from O2 for delivery tomorrow aswell.

This is a new contract for me with O2. Online 50 (50 xnet mins + 200 txts for £19 on 12 month contract) but had to pay 69.99 for the phone. I'm still happy with that.



Topscooby, pls let me know when your W810i arrives tomorrow. I am going to ring o2 again tomorrow to see whether they got any W810i in stock. I suspect they r going to send the first batch of phones to new customers rather then people who upgrade their contract.

The chance is very slim but still worth a try. They would probably send u another W800i unless u r willing to pay at least £69.99 ( the price they ask for the W810i on o2 website ) or even more than that.

My deal looked good until I received a W800 not a W810, Orange will take back the W800 and I can have a W810 when it is released (8th April) but I think it'll be the PAC code option for me.

got a card from DHL today regarding a fail delivery. I suspect it's the W810i from o2. Will collect the parcel first thing in the morning. Can't wait!

I called o2 again this morning and they told me i got to call back on 10th April cause W810i r out of stock. This is not good enough for existing customers and load of Crxp!

Alexho, get them to sort out your tariff on the phone, and then collect your upgrade handset from your local o2 store, who should have stocks by now.

Got a good deal here guys, well I think so. O2 100, so only 100 texts and 100 minutes but not £25 a month, down to £15, also I get the W810, for free! O2 only get 500 W810s in a week btw.

Simmotino, that's what i did this afternoon. I went to my local o2 store asked them to renew my contract with the same offer. Then the sales person told me that i have to pay £79.99 for the phone cause they can't give the phone free to me. Of course i am not going to pay that silly price if i could get it free. Will ring o2 at 0800 on monday morning. Third time lucky hopefully!
