Haggling with Vodafone. Help!

Hey guys just looking for some advice. My 24-month contract finally finishes next month with Vodafone and I'm looking for some ammunition when I start haggling. What are the best deals that you guys have been offered recently by haggling with Vodafone? I don't really want to leave the network, but I was wondering what was the best offer I could get if I threatened to leave.

I currently pay £21 a month for 600 minutes, unlimited texts and 500MB of data with a Samsung Galaxy S3.

I remember when I cancelled my previous contract, 2 years ago with Three, I went through the a pretty arduous process of being transferred from department to department until I finally received my PAC code from the Cancellations Department. As I passed through the various departments, I was offered a succession of increasingly better deals -- until they finally offered me their *best* offer: money off my monthly bill, increased call/data allowance, a new handset plus a tablet (although nothing could sway me, their signal was crap in my area).

So I was wondering if anyone has any similar stories for Vodafone recently? It would be really handy to have something to aim for when haggling with these guys. Thanks in advance :)

    IMO, you are likely to find a better deal as a new customer with Vodafone or another network, especially through CPW or other dealers and taking TCB/Quidco cashback into account.
