    Has the new black n95-8gb on o2 out today (14th Jan)?

    there's nothing showing on the website.. has anyone spoke to people in retentions regarding it's release?

    I don't trust them to send this particular phone through upgrade if it's not listed on the website yet and I'd expect the n95 +8gb card to be sent.
  • Has anyone been offered any retention deals on pay as you go? I have been a PAYG O2 customer for 4 years but am thinking of moving to the Virgin 300mins/300texts for £10 deal. I'd prefer to stay with O2 if they can offer me something similar. Has anyone had any experiences?

    My previous O2 contract finished at the end of December, but I didn't like any of the deals that they offered me when I called up, so I opted for their Simplicity tariff for a few weeks until something better came up.

    Skip to today, when I accepted the following deal:
    400 minutes
    1000 texts
    Free O2 to O2 calls
    1MB data
    18 month contract
    £5/month average (£180 credit making the first 12 months free then £15 thereafter)
    I probably could have haggled a bit more, but since I'm happy with my current handset, I thought £5/month was pretty hard to beat.
    -- £2 coin savers club = £90 (£84 banked) --
  • The deal above is great!!

    Anyone with a retentions Nokia N82 deal? Im looking to upgrade 2moro and was wondering what people have got with a N82?
  • Re: Nokia N95 8GB

    Has anyone managed to get a better renewal deal for this phone than the following:

    18 month contract
    £25 a month
    Phone cost: £50
    800 anytime mins
    1000 texts

    (I don't actually need so many mins and texts, but apparently it doesn't make much difference to the monthly price if you want less).

    I'm really after a £20 a month deal - I don't want to pay more than that, particularly as its 18 months. I don't want to pay for the phone either if it can be helped! :confused: Last year I was told I wouldn't get the N73 for free, but on the fourth call I did!

    I can't get them to budge from £25 a month for Online 40 Tariff with free n82
    I asked if they would do Online 35 for £20 if I paid £49.99 and they said no. I already have my PAC code but will try the early shift tomorrow morning.

    I'd snap that up!!
    Save £15 a month, but its £50 for the phone when its actually free on that tariff.

    Ok.. retentions gave me nothing! No £ of line rental, just offered me the 800 mins, 1000 txts free n82 18 months, £40 p/m same as new customers!

    She said the £15 off for existing customers who have already had it on their existing contract doesnt exist anymore!
    No i dont know what 2 do!
