Hi all.
I was on online 400 tariff at £45 a month with 02. That incuded 400 cross net mins and 500 texts on a 12 month contract. My contract was due to end on August 15th.
I followed advice on here and told them i wanted my PAC code because i could get 500 cross net mins and 700 texts a month with t-mobile for £35 an month on a 12 month contract. (this is true) - although i wanted a K800i - t-mobile were offering it for £35. O2 wanted £100 for the upgrade to it!
I was put through to retentions and they offered me 500 cross net mins (100 more than i currently got), 500 free texts and the K800i for free - for £25 a month. Still retaining my 12 month contract (i like a new phone every year!).
This is 100 more mins than i was getting previously, for £20 a month less line rental and the phone was totally free!
I have been with O2 for 4 years and my average spend is about £80 a month on my bill.
hope this is of use to you.

I've got to be on the best o2 contract:
50 Minutes x-net
150 Texts
For....... 75p a month 
No cash back via redemption crap, infact nothing gets debited from my account untill month 12, where £9 gets taken out, not bad for the year, perfect for me as I only wanted something for short on-peak calls.
My other contract is t-mobile,
3000 Minutes X-net (off peak)
575 Texts
£30 a month... (Free phone too, k800i etc.)

Well I was on the 1000off peak x-net and 1000 texts for £25 a month.
I called them up telling them I found a better deal (the t-mob one mentioned above) the best they offered was 750x-net and 750 texts for £20... I said no to all the offers, and told her I wanted to cancel the contract and wanted my PAC code.
She then gave me a further 3 options:
1) Cancel the contract completley
2) Cancel and get my PAC code
3) Switch down to this VERY cheap contract.
I decided on the last one 
It's only 50x-net minutes and 150 texts, but for 75p a month you can't go wrong

I just got 100 mins, 100 texts and 36mb of data plus a k800i for £24.50 a month and I still have two months left on my contract. I threaten to leave and go to t-mobile.

I am currently on a contract paying £25 a month for 750 off peak x-net mins and 100 texts. £25 is too much for me and I'm hoping to reduce to £20 max, will I be able to keep the price plan I have now and be able to get a free samsung d900 or SE k800, or will I be able to squeeze a better deal out of them!? The thing I am looking for mainly is to bring the price of the contract down, and to a get a new (good) phone FOC.
Thanks for any help

I've just registered so I can post my O2 deal since I found reading the experiences of others here helped me when I rang O2 retentions.
I've only been with O2 for one year and I just got:
Sony Ericsson W810i for FREE
500 Cross Network Anytime Minutes
500 Texts
For just £20 per month and one month rollover on any unused minutes and texts.
I'd hold out Cheshire Boy, they CAN give you it for free so it's worth being patient and if they give you an offer you don't like just say you'll think about it...leave it a while...then ring back and speak to another advisor. Different advisors will offer different deals. I rang three times, each time being offered several alternative tariffs before I got this deal....and the first deal was a total joke! |

LAst week i negotiated a deal of £15 for 200 xnet mins and £500 text.
but had to pay 69.99 for the k800i.
i have today sent the phone back cos i didnt like it.
instead i want the d900, you recon i could get the d900 cheaper than 69.99 ?? |

O2 are hores!
I rang them trying to get on contract and they hung up on me! I wasnt pissing about or anything, in the end I went to virgin tho gave me:
free k750i
300 free texts
200 any time any net min
all for £60 for the year using cash back, I also then got a further 36.50 back using quidco which may turn out to be £109 lol
im now trying to move a o2 number over, but so far they aint letting me as it hasnt had £10 put on it!
I was with them for like 5 years and signed them up about 50 customers and this is how they treat me!

Hello! I am new to this forum, but have a question!
I am currently on an 02 contract, (ending in around 3/4 months i think) and am desperate to cancel. I keep going over on my text allowance ( I get 500 msgs free and 100 anytime minutes to any network for £25) Using around 700 msgs a month. Also the phone i got at the start of the contract is damaged and is unusable, so even if they offered me more allowances im not sure i would want it. I am a student and am finding this very expensive at the moment!
I have found a student contract on orange which is ideal, as it allows 1000 messages free and 100 minutes and it comes with a free phone that i would like!
Would o2 charge me to leave them? Are orange able to pay for this if i tell them i want to move to them?
I really would like to move to orange as well as i have heard the service is a lot better.
Be grateful for any advice!! Thank you

O2 will need you to pay upfront for any line rental upto your your contract terms. I really doubt Orange will want to pay for this.
