    cant see why not, they will want to keep your custom. Its easier to hold onto customers than to attract new ones. Call customer services and kid on your thinking on cancelling.

    Do your research first before calling and see what other networks have on offer and get them to try and match / beat it.
    If you keep on doing what's you've always done, you'll keep on being what you've always been...:think:

    They happly will give you an upgrade but you'll have to agree to another contract minimum length, (ie 12 months..)

    in shops they dont AFAIK you just sign a new contract and phone customer services to keep your number

    they do offer upgrades on phone but i had to do it in shop as above to get staff discount:D

    Your initial contract will never run out. Neither is there an upgrade, it is a new contract, and a new minimum term. Go PAYG, as this keeps you in control, and saves problems later should your circumstances change.
