upgrading from sim only pay monthly with orange....

basically during my marriage to my now ex husband he racked up debts in joint names and trashed my credit rating. Since he left I took out a mobile with 3 without a problem, as well as dongle internet. My contract with 3 ended a few months ago and whe I applied for a new phone with orange via dialaphone I was declined.

My ex told me he had gone on orange pay monthly sim only for 3 months and was then allowed to upgrade and has an iphone 4. So i have done, its been 3 months now, my 3rd bill was paid yesterday via DD.

Have been looking on the orange website as I want the samsung galaxy note-but theyre still wanting £36 a month for it!!!!! I have found a good deal via the tesco mobile shop, but in order to get a contract now would I have to go through orange directly or would the fact that im already with them and have paid my bills on time every month be enough to get the contract via the tesco shop???

    How?

    I think this can help only with an 'internal' upgrade. Also, what is the min term of your current sim-only contract? Can you easily cancel it if you get another contract through Tesco?
  • its a month to month contract im on at the min with orange x
