ending my 2yr T-Mobile contract, poor signal at home

Can anyone help me find a good mobile phone deal. Due to a change in my work, I now spend more time at home and my t-mobile signal is too poor to talk for more than 2 minutes without problems, supposedly my flat 'sits in a dip'. I am self employed and rely on a mobile phone. My neighbour is with O2 and has a good reception.

My 2yr contract ended in August but I am still with them. My Nokia X6 costs £15 to unlock (by T-mobile and at 2 of the market stalls in my nearest town).
How can I make the most of this situation?
It would be nice to have a good signal and maybe..an iphone 5 :T

    Well the networks are not going to fall over themselves to offer you the latest top end phones for nowt, get the handset unlocked and get a sim only deal, there is talk of yet another Apple handset as early as June, so the IP5 may reduce a little.

    If you really want to splash more than £500 over 2 years on iPhone (excluding the airtime), see Cheap iPhone Deals Incl 5 and 4S deals
    It's unlikely to be better than sim-free + sim-only. In fact it's likely to be more expensive.
