Upgrading to full contract with Orange

I have been on a 30 day sim only contract with orange for the last 3 Months Via worry free mobiles and got a call the other day saying i could go onto a 24 month contract so yesterday i called orange to cancel my 30 day sim only contract and the lady said if i call them tomorrow they will see if they can offer me a better deal then worry free mobiles.

What i would like to know is will Orange Deff take me onto a full contract with a new handset and would they be able to offer me a better deal then worry free mobiles?

Would i be able to walk into a orange shop and upgrade there and would they do a Credit check on me or not as im allready with them?

Any Advice please.

    i would imagine they would credit check you again as its a substantially different type of contract. i think you mentioning it makes anyone reading this, question your credit rating now haha.
