I had 2 contracts with 3 both at 15 pounds 250mins and 50txt, first one was due to end last month and after weeks of trying to get the N95 8G or sony ericsson C905 i cancelled one contract, the other contract is due to end on 6th March and when i tried to cancel last month the useless call centre person i spoke to still wouldn't give me the phones I wanted then stated i would have to pay an early cancellation charge!?!?

That "Useless call centre person" is correct, you may only have 2 days left on the contract, but it will still mean an ETF to cancel.

EDIT: If it was last month you would still have to pay an ETF.

I don't understand, why would he need to pay a fee? Do you mean if the contract was being cancelled immediately without giving the 30 days notice? Think I gave my 30 days notice about 4 days before my actual expiry date and I haven't been charged anything. Or maybe they decided to save the surprise & just didn't tell me about any fees. Yet!

Hardly surprising if you're only paying £15/mo. If you want premium phones for 'free', you need to pay the networks a reasonable amount each month to allow them to get the cost of the handset back and then some, over the life of your contract period.

My contract ends officially in August, but can have an upgrade 3 months from the end as I'm on an 18 month contract. I currently pay £37 a month which is too expensive! I am looking for about 200 mins and 600 texts with upgrade. What do you reckon is the highest price I should pay for this?

You can get 200 mins and umlimited texts for £20 on a good range of handsets with 3

I have had a look at that but you have to pay extra for the phones each month bumpin the cost up
