    it does depend sometimes on how much you previously spent each month as to what deal you will get

    Can you explain how you managed this (mentioning of any other offers, etc.)? Obviously, my bargaining skills have taken a bit of a turn for the worse. This is what I was offered when I called today:

    500min,
    Unlimited Texts,
    500MB Data,
    £37 per month for 12 months,
    £165.90 handset cost for iPhone 4S 16GB.


    Yep, exactly the same as what I got - although I can move down to £32 after 6 months.

    I took it, I was happy to be honest and the phone is brilliant.

    What are the changes after you move down to the £32/month plan? Reduced minutes?

    Have O2 not stopped allowing downgrading in the middle of the min term?
    I failed to find anything about this in their most recent T&C.

    My O2 iphone contract runs out today so rang and was offered:
    18 month contract
    900minutes / 500mg data / unlimited texts
    £29.99 for phone
    Total : £47 per month

    seems ok but think I will have a look around before I commit to another 18 months.

    What kind of usage did you have in your previous contract? I think the one thing we all miss when listing these deals is the kind of contract and usage people had before they got made these offers. But, looks like a good deal dude.
