    The list is only available on the o2 intranet ;)

    I don't know if I'm in work or not tomorrow, if I am I'll post them when I'm on my lunch.

    Any update on what o2 will release in march??

    I guess you didnt get given a lunch break :(
    Only joking mate :p
  • Hi just browsing through the 02 website. I can't seem to find any 12 months contracts.

    Have 02 scrapped the idea of a 12 month contract. After reading through this thread it seems a large % are coming from 12 month to 18 month. It seems 02 is now trying to push contracts back further and further. In 2 years time I wouldn't be surprised to see 36 month contracts.

    So do 02 still offer 12 month contracts (considering I'm on one currently)?

    O2 haven't done 12m contract for ages now.

    If you're happy to stay on the same tariff then you can upgrade in store but there will more than likely be a slight cost to the phone.

    Yes O2 do still offer them but you have to ask for them.
    There are alsso only limited handsets available for a 12 month contract or as in my case when I asked for the BB 8900 on a 12 month deal they said it would cost me at least £50 per month!
    So I went with an 18 month deal.

    Orange still do 12 month deals and T Mobile do also.
    Plus check out internet websites like affordable mobiles.co.uk

    You can keep your tariff if you upgrade online. Just click on "stay on current tariff" then pick a phone.
    But again, you wont get the best deals or keep your discount (if you got any)

    Depends on if you want a phone or to keep your current tariff.

    Otherwise, just get the 12 month Sim-only (Simplicity) tariff, more minutes and texts (compared to 1 month simplicity).

    HTH.

    I like the look of the N78 but it appears O2 no longer stock it, some websites say that it has been 'replaced' by the N96, is this true? Can I still get the N78?

    The N78 hasn't been replaced by the N96, it has been replaced with the N79. However I'm not sure if this is available on O2. You may also want to have a look at the N85 or it's replacement the N86.

    Lol sorry if it offended anyone who works in the upgrades department.

    Everyone is kinda skipping that department now.
