Cancellation fee

Options
Hi guys,
Sorry if this is covered in another thread but I couldn't find it.
I was thinking about geeting a new phone but i am still currently in a contract but not yet elligable for an upgrade so would have to pay a cancellation fee. I seem to remember reading that you could get a different phone company to pay the cancellation fee or part of it but can't seem to find it anywhere. Anyone known of/Used this?

    They generally only do it for a max of 3 months, but in doing so you don't get any good deals because of the money they spent paying you out. I advise you wait until its all finished and you get a new contract normally.
