rizel23

Hi all, entered a 18 month contract at the end of May 2006, currently on an 'On Line' tariff of 750 mins & 750 txt for £35 a month. I do not even use half of these so would like to downgrade.

Can anyone offer advise on traffis i can get and when i can downgrade? Thanks

O2's downgrading policy changed 1 January 2007.

The minimum period for 12 and 18 month contracts is now 9 months and you may only move down one tariff per month to the next lower priced tariff.

Prior to this change you could downgrade to any tariff after 6 months.

Thx, but i signed my contract in May 2006, will this change still effect me?

It doesn't matter either way, this month it has been 9 months since you signed, so whether it's 6 months for you or 9 months you can do it.

It only takes effect from your next billing date, not the day you arrange it, so if you call them anytime now they should be able to downgrade your tarriff from your next billing date (which will be the 9th month one).

For £25 (the next tarrif down) you can have 200mins and 500 texts or 250 mins and 150 texts (Online 25 plan).

For £20 (the next tarrif after that) you can have 75 mins and 300 texts or 100 mins and 50 texts (Online 20 plan)
