:mad: Ive been with 02 for 4 years and am due to upgrade. They would not offer me a deal or beat the other networks offers like they used to. They said now they treat existing customers the same as new customers. Im annoyed about this as im a loyal customer and am also a select customer due to my high spend.
I was put through to disconnections who cancelled my contract and refused to also offer me any deal to keep my custom. Apparently headf office have told them they can no longer offer extra minutes, half price line rental etc to existing customers.Wins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0 -

They didnt offer me unlimited calls or texts! I was only offered the tariffs that are on their websiite! and had to pay for the phone. Yet get it as a new customer and you get it free with cashback / half price line rentalWins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0

o2 direct don't offer 'half price' line rental on new connecting customers. The online tariffs come with unlimited texts/calls at weekends, check the website.:staradmin:staradmin:staradmin:staradmin:staradmin0

Hubby has just come to the end of his 18 month contract with O2 & rang to get a new phone/reduced tariff etc and was told he could have changed his handset after 12 months???!!
He's definately not a top spending customer either - never goes over his allotted minutes/texts, so is not really a customer they are making lots of money on. Strange....0 -
