Nokia 9500 - am I being ripped off?

Hi,

I need to upgrade my 6310i - and was looking at the Nokia 9500

However I phoned Orange Business (158) where I have my monthly contract and they want £300 for the phone upgrade.

I currently pay £25 pm for a doubletalk 120 (240 minutes talk & data, free 0800 calls, 0870 included in the call time) - however I pay for calls to other networks, voicemail@10ppm & texts @ 5p each.

Now I wish to keep my business service as I do get free care worth £5pm and a better service to call them with any issues & I like free 0800 and my 0870 calls included in my minutes.

But I do not wish to get ripped off!!

Can I do better than paying £300 - can I get Orange to match any offers on business?

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

    The Nokia 9500 is a bit of an exclusive phone,so unless you upgrade your tarrif i can't see you getting much joy with orange with it not being a run of the mill popular phone.I have added some links for you to check against.Just click on the providers sites and the link will take you straight to their offers for the phone
