Trying to get a new phone from 3

I lost my phone the other week. Too much alcohol makes chrwil a forgetful boy. Anyway, I got it cancelled and rang three to get them to send me a new sim. I also obviously need a new phone. Is there any chance I can get them to give me/sell me one at a reduced rate? I've been with them a couple of years now. I'm probably about a 3rd into my contract so renewal isn't an option. I was wondering if I could say something like, if you give me a new phone, i will renew when it comes to it. Although I very much doubt it will work...

Anyone got any tips?
