Been on an 02 contract for 12 months now.
Started off with 400mins 100 texts for £35 a month with £235 cashback over the 12months. Was awful though, most months bills were £50/£60 because of texts.
I upgraded it in month 9 to £40 a month for 600mins and 500 texts.
Just rang up to cancel because I've only got til early Jan til the 12 months are over and I've barted with them for 400mins 1000 texts and a sony ericson k850i for £20 a month. (This 18 months)
I get 14 days to change my mind.
What does anyone recon? Good deal or have I been done??

I put £30 on my phone on Orange and I get 1000 free messages and use the £30 on calls lol.
I don't think that 18 month contracts are a very good idea either, it's a very long time to commit to a financial contract. But that's my debt counsellor talk over, I actually don't think it's too bad a deal as deals go.
Yup I do.
You get more than what you used to, and you were going over what you used to get, and it will cost you less.
hah you on commission there or something?
How much is that a month if you dont mind me asking?
that seems a bit poo though when for another £5 a month you could get 500 minutes instead of 180 free! (plus unlimtited texts of course) Thats what my boyfriends on, dolphin 35 he did the whole trade your phone in for £100 quid credit to your account aswell, not bad value.
600 if you do it online
i know thats what we got his sister to do we found that out afterwards lol, but he got £100 for his phone which probably works out better as he never goes over 500 mins.
its mint
Yours sounds like a good offer, just don't like the idea of 18 month contracts, they're a swizz, especially when you consider your phone only has a 12 month warranty. What happens for the last 6 months if your top of the line phone breaks.....?
I'd threaten to cancel (which you can do then and pay it off) and chances are theyd give me a new one.
Its like syk boxes. If it break ring em to cancel and to keep you theyll give you a new free one
