No no until six months have elapsed.

Thanks. Do you work for O2 or could you provide a link for where it might say in their T&Cs?

No I don't work for O2 but I have seen this asked before. I think that you would find your deal hard to better.

They will not allow you to sign straight up again and get Quidco etc, otherwise everyone would do it. You can normaly negotiate a couple of months free, or a 12m reduction per month when renewal time comes around.

Thanks guys.
Glad I came here to find out first, otherwise I would be kicking myself if the retentions team offered me a good deal and I declined... only to find the quidco deal doesn't apply.

What if I did it another way (trying to find as many loopholes as possible )
Gave my brothers mobile number and he was the named customer... I suppose the only thing that would remain the same is the Home phone number and Adress that the broadband is supplied to. Would that be sufficient... or should I just shut-up and accept the deal that I get from retentions?

How do you think that would possibly work? The only thing they are interested in for new sign ups is the landline number. When you put that in it would show up that you are already a customer on that number!

See my post #55 on page 3. Basically you just need to give somebody's O2 phone number to get the discount, at least this is what I was offered. Problem is: don't know anyone on O2. I might have to get a PAYG or simplicity

Called just now to cancel as my contract was up, was offered 3 months free or £5 a month for 8meg. declined the offer and said mac code will be sent.

Did anyone get a phone call from o2 reducing the above offer after the mac code was sent?

Would i be able to sign up with Be broadband and get quidco cash back??

I would imagine so. However it's only £25 cashback so you were getting a better deal from o2 retentions.

i was offered 3 months free by retentions when renewing my bb with O2
