What offers have people been getting for the HTC HD2?

Anyone got a decent retentions deal on a Blackberry? Am hoping to sort it this week as my notice runs out on Jan 10th. Are they really able to price match web deals in-store now?

o2 are only making good business sense, I know that doesn't seem the way when it comes to you. But o2 are a business and if you only use your included mins and texts then dont expect them to give you a good deal. I spend over mins some months, take my phone on holiday, spend on £1.50 texts and first go round was iphone 3gs brand new, £35 per month, 600 mins & 500 texts and unlimited internet, but when my girlfriend called up a few months ago, it was like no we have not got a good phone and you cant pay £20 per month anymore, so sim only was for her. Reason is she doesnt spend anymore then her mins. That all adds up to them. A phone that costs them £300 and only charge you £20 per month for loads of mins and texts and you never spend any more. Simple your not the customer they want. Why they also push sim only, because they dont want to give a £300-500 phone and charge £50 per month and then the person goes walkie as they cant pay, they loose there £300 phone. When they charge a higher price for higher price mobiles, is because they are loaning the phone to you, while you pay it off. They have been doing this for years. Its only they have got tighter now, as they are run by a Spanish company, tighter then British people, well most countries are. We are rip of Britain you know.

I am due to finish my contract with 02 on the 6th February. I rang them today and after waiting in the queue for a hour was told I would need to ring back on Tuesday to give my notice of intent to leave.
I am currently paying £35 a month, getting 600 mins unlimited texts I always seem to pay more than the £35 and it often goes up to £50. I initially had a samsung soul (what a peice of crap that was - now using my 5 yr old phone which is better as that broke.. but any hoowww)
My question is, I was told today by the "customer service" advisor that on Tuesday they would offer me a deal. I explained to her that I have seen a offer with voda for a nokia n97 300 mins and unlimited texts £20pm on 2yr contract, which suits my usage fine. I would prefer not to leave 02, im out of work at the moment so unsure if I could get another contract? But I am just wondering whether it is likely 02 could offer similar or better than this, I would happily pay £25 with 02 just for the lack of hassle in moving! Plus id rather avoid a 2 yr contract.
does anybody think they would offer me similar to the voda deal?
Would I have any problem obtaining a new contract? I have a good credit score just no job atm?
Help please

I honestly think you should call during working hours and get the right person. I would have to usally call up 3 times to get the right deal.

Im both on vodafone and o2 and o2 are better customer service by far.

o2 sometimes dont have the phones, but what ive done is ask what phone they will offer me, I go on ebay and see what prices they go for. I then can make my mind up if I can buy the phone I want for the money ive made from ebay. If they offer you a iphone 3gs then these are fetching about £300-400.
