I got mine through cpw and got the o2 250 deal. That's 250 minutes and 100 texts (double that for first 3 months), free upgrade for £30 or £35 a month, 6 months half line rental on 12 month contract. But ill cancel it and open a new contract at the third month for a new phone through the cpw insurance deal.


Do you mean that you will use their insurance that lets you cancel your contract early? If you do mean that then you have to return the phone if you havent got to the end of the contract that you siggned. Otherwise loads of people would be doing it.

Not sure its been mentioned before, but onestopphoneshop are doing the phone free on canary 30 with 200 minutes and 575 texts. £30pm with 9 months free but on an 18 month contract.

Im in the same boat as a lot of you tho, contract was up with o2 about 2 months ago. Rang last month when I was going to get a n80 and they offered me 200 minutes and 200 texts for £15 months on a 12 months contract, they were gonna charge me £180 for the phone though. Hopefully I can wangle a free k800 of them instead when I phone them later today.

My contract with 02 CPW was £25 100mins 100 txts.

I phoned them on Thursday night and they said K800 is only available to new customers. Upgrades will follow in a months time.

I said put me through to cancelations then I'll get the phone from O2 online.

I got put through and said I can get K800i £49.99 100mins Xnet and 500 Txts on 02 online.

He said ok hold on ill speak with manager.

He came back offered to match the deal with mins and txts and give me the phone for free.

So I got a 12 month Contract 100 mins Xnet 500 Txts and a free K800i

I phoned 1900 29th and it arrived 0945 the next morning. Im happy with that deal and CPW's service.

only with an 18 month contract, well that's what they told me any way!!!
reading through all these great deals, i am very tempted to take my phone back to cpw and either deman a better deal or cancel my contract within the 4 day period!!!

i got 6 months half price line rental on redemption, (basic service £35)
250 x net mins
100 texts
from the cpw and that's it!!!!!!

looking at all the other posts, i should be getting that deal at around the £12 mark over a full 12 months, or getting much more for my money

Called 02 this morning to confirm a deal I'd previously made last week. Somehow, they seemed to have messed it up, possibly in a good way for me.

The original deal was £20 per month rental (was £25) with 500 mins and 400 texts. Previously it was 100 of each.

When I called them today, the woman kept talking about a £15 per month reduction on my 'sub', 500 mins and only 300 texts. I didn't correct her, so will wait and see what happens. I'd be very happy with a £10 per month line rental lol.

Annoyingly she said the phone was in stock and would be shipped in a day or two. I've just received an automated email stating "We regret to inform you that the items you have ordered from us are currently out of stock although we will make every effort to ensure that they will be delivered to you as soon as possible"

Think it is a online deal only.




I'm beginning to doubt this now, because in the CPW book, it says 100KB

@leerichards - I had exactly the same conversation and email today.

In the end I told them I was going to an O2 store - so I did, they sorted everything out and I walked out with the handset.

Well, just to throw in my experience... About 15months ago I was on Orange. When I phoned them to upgrade I tried the whole "I got a better deal with O2" line. They thanked me for my custom and told me my contract would be cancelled the following week. So much for customer retentions!

After being on O2 Online 200 for the past year I called O2 upgrades asked if they could price match etc, and eventually spoke to a lady in retentions.

She told me straight away that I could have the phone for free.

I said that a couple of online stores were running 6months free on a 12month contract for the same price plan.

She did some calculations and said they could offer me a £10 discount on my line rental!

200 xnet mins and 500 texts for £20/month, free k800i

Just to be cheeky I asked about data plans and/or a bluetooth handsfree but she wouldn't give... Never mind though as I managed to save £170 by haggling!

Edited to say:

Hehe free texts between 1900-2000 every night with O2 treats!


2nd Edit:
Called O2 today to ask about transfering to my 3g sim, to be told that I would have to change my contract... Long story short I'm now getting an extra 100mins and 250 text for the same price!

300mins, 750 text, hehe!
