Getting out of contract...
I'm in a 18 month iPhone contract with o2 and am around 12 months into it, but would like to get out of it as im maxing out my 500 texts each month but using about 200 minutes...so clearly im wasting my time. I phoned up o2 and they said i cant get out of it without paying the remainder in bulk - 6 x £35. Any other way i can get out of this contract? Thanks for any help

Nope sorry. Only suggestion I can think of is to use less texts if you're going over your limit. I'm afraid you signed up for that tariff and are stuck with it for now.October Comp Wins -Stella Artois Challice (FB)0 -
Nope, that is why we have contracts, you are tied into it until it ends.
Only reason for getting out of it is if you have not moved house, but there is no longer a signal because a mast has been broken and not been repaired.
You maybe able to add another 500text bundle.Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies0 -
ah ok thanks guys, worth a try eh!
yeah i think i'll just add texts if i go over again this month. Thanks anyway 
oh one last question though, when it ends if i go for another contract, whos best? O2, Orange or Vodafone?0 -
People have positive and negative experiences meaning there is no best operator, check signal on the operator in the area u plan to use it with a free/cheap PAYG sim on their network. Best signal is all u really need.Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
