horner2693, have u consider moving to O2 online tariff? They offer 500 free texts or 50% more talk time if u sign up the deal online but the K750i will set u back to £50 on O2 100 tariff. Still not too bad though! Like Uncle Bob said O2 phones got little branding and is unlock so u could put any sim card in.

ye i have considered 02, the only real alternative imo.

plus points -

keep no.
less branding
unlocked
more minutes

negatives -

no 1000 texts deal
£50 for phone as opposed to £30 on orange
less minutes if i want more texts

Also bear in mind that you can get a K750i on O2 with no branding whatsoever, which is what I did. Just buy the phone on an O2 contract but not direct from O2 (carphone warehouse, phones4u etc), then you will get yourself a cheaper deal than direct from O2 and will get a more stable phone plus no branding. I bought mine from dialaphone (£199 adding up line retal etc) but that may not be practical for you due to low free texts etc, good for me as I never use the contract sim I just stick my pay as you go card into whatever new phone I get.

someone told me on another forum that you can use PAC code even if getting a new contract on the same network. they said if i get a PAC code before cancellling my contract then when i buy a new contract from orange simply use the PAC code to keep my number but on a new sim card
