Are these upgrade costs?

Did you get these via "My T-Mobile"? When I login, and go to upgrades, it says

Sorry, we don't have any online offers for you at the moment. This could be because you're still in contract - you can text UP to 150 to find out.

I am however out of contract and been offered some shocking upgrade deals due to me having half price line rental via friends and family.

yeah, these are prices for upgrades on 'my t-mobile'. hope it helps someone.

It's only going to help people which have the same upgrade options as you, as they may cost more for other people (or less)

Was speaking to T-Mobile today, they gave me an offer which although isnt too bad they also expect a bit for the phone. I said I wanted my PAC and they didnt seem too bothered. When she then said it would cost £16 odd I said I'd call back nearer the end date.

What is the usual tactic when moving away from a provider? I cant go elsewhere as I'll fail the credit check, so I don't want a pac issued if it means I cant then rescind cancellation and renegotiate again!

this confuses me whenever people say this,i had read about the credit checks and people not being accepted and i was a little worried recently when i wanted to switch from t mobile to orange,im in a joint iva so credit rating not good to say the least,all orange asked was if we had home phone,and how long we had lived at our address,no problems at all.:beer:

I've applied before for some offers and always got rejected. The only way T-Mobile accepted me was because I went onto U-Fix tariff for a year and then asked to be switched onto a 'normal' tariff, otherwise I'd still be on PAYG (ex-bankrupt).

I could always try and apply but of course if it gets turned down the search gets recorded which make sit a little mroe difficult in the future.

upgraded to the vario 4 today, £100 inc delivery on flex 30 web and walk, with half price line rental...

Old school F&F discount, so its for life and any call plan I want. Shame I use my phone so much but for £17.50 a month it will do

Quality phone the vario 4. Could have got similar (£120 they quoted me) but dont use the phone enough to make it worthwhile. The keyboard on it is superb though, probably best phone keyboard I've seen.

Went for compact IV myself, will keep the usual ROM on the phone for 6 months then hopefully someone will have worked out how to get Android running on it.

I got offered the G1 on any tarriff I wanted with free internet but since I USE my phone for work and not a toy, I choose the vario 4

Do t-mobile loyalty discounts automatically expire with the end of the contract date and therefore should the bill before my contract-period ending show a pro-rata'd discount? (bill and contract renewal dates are not the same for me as I've never renewed on the day the contract expires but after a week or two)

Just want to know what to expect next week - before I phone them up. Help appreciated!

A lot of people use G1 for work.... and its better now you can have outlook calendar and contacts on the phone. I guess if you want to type word documents or something but there is even a notepad for it.
