LOL, well the deal I was offered was the £35 a month, but with a £2 loyalty discount making it £33... better than nowt I guess?

I'm with O2 at the moment and am coming to the end of an 18-month, £20pm contract which gave me 600min, 2000texts and unlimited BlackBerry bolt-on (got a free Blackberry 9000 with it)...
Anyone know what my chances are of staying on the same contract but O2 giving me a refurb iPhone (any at all would do tbh!)

Ask for your pac code when they ask why you are leaving say you want an Iphone.

You just need to ask - I did yesterday and was told they are available but sadly my contract does not end for a few months yet!

i think i will wait a few weeks as the 4th generation is coming out which means the 3gs might be a better deal then........

thanks for replies

Hello all - a newbie here. I've made the decision that I'm going to get an iPhone when my contract runs out with VF in August. I can upgrade in June, however I want to wait to see when the new iPhone is coming out so as to get the newest version or at least a better deal on the 3gs. I have had some fairly major issues with VF over the last 18 months however with their billing being totally wrong (£545 was what I was going to be charged one month - was eventually reduced to £12.50!) and I'm not sure I want to stay with them.

2 Questions therefore:

1) In other people's expereince is the "you've screwed me around so I'm going elsewhere" line going to assist at all in getting a better deal at upgrade time? Is it worth pointing out all the problems I've had?

2) what deals have people been able to get in upgrading with VF?

I know from reading the forum to phone cancellations line as opposed to upgrades - and if need be I'll go elsewhere but wanted to see what deals might be possible in staying with VF.

Thanks

does anyone know if there are any deals for iphone 3gs that come with cashback or something else like a laptop?

None that I've seen. If there are, you would probably be looking at £60+/month, as the cost of your laptop is just added to the contract.
