O2 contract ending What now ?

my o2 12 month contract ends soon just wondering whats out there at the min. I signed up via quidco so got the £75 cashback on the £7.50 package and have been impressed with it.

    Why move then? O2 are really good, I think you'd be pressed to get something better - unless you went with Be (which is the near enough the same thing, just more money)...

    Once you are OOC, ring them up, and ask them what they can offer you to stay another 12m. Some people on here have reported getting a discount of £2.50pm or an offer of a couple of months free.
    Since they are launching their landline package in March, you might have more scope for haggling after that.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    I heard that some Be members threaten to leave and get a discount.
    I went away and now I'm back.:j:j

    Do remember your contract doesn't "end"', your "minimum term" ends. You still MUST give 30 days notice if you wish to cancel, and must continue to pay the bills they send.

    Sorry if I'm spouting the obvious, but this catches out a lot of people.

    Just call them up and see what they offer, if you have been with them for a long time with your mobile, then you have even more room to ask for a good deal with your BB
