Does Carphone Warehouse Trade-in require a new purchase?
I'm thinking to buy Nokia 7+ direct from nokia.com, if that's how it will come with a google home mini freeby. But I also have my old phone to trade-in.

iPhone 6 to ??
So, my 3 year old 6 is on its last legs (awful battery, getting slower by the week, crashing etc.) so I think it is high time I went for a newer model.

I'm currently with 02 on a 500mb/500min/500txt tariff which is £6 a month. I've been with 02 for about 10 years now.
