Its upgrade time for me and im with three i have a nokia n95 8GB on its way to me as an upgrade to my exsisting contract on 3.

i have to pay a one off £20 for the phone and staying on exsisting price plan which is £26 per month for £180 credit to spend on voice text & pic txt's.

My other option was to get the phone free and pay £33 per month for mix and match 500 (500 any time any network mins + 300 3to3 mins)

i wanted some internet usage thrown in as well so i might just send it back and try and get a better deal...

anyone had any better deals on the N95 9GB ?

    I not so much had a better deal with the N95 9GB but it is time for me to renew my contract and the last time I renewed it, I am with vodafone, I told them I had been offered a better deal elsewhere and they gave me a choice of any phone absolutely free of charge and I got them to reduce my contract to half price for remaining 6 months of my contract. I even kept my old mobile which I gave to my girlfriend and it was still in mint condition. There is no way I would pay £20 for a new phone when you are already on a contract with 3. You need to phone or email them if you don`t feel confident on the phone and tell them you have been offered a better deal elsehwere and can they improve on the offer they have given you. That`s exactly what I done with Vodafone and let`s face it, they are the same as any company who take your money, they are scared to lose your services and will 9/10 offer a better contract. You don`t get nothing unless you ask and since I have started asking for better deals I am amazed at what you can get just by opening your mouth.
    Good luck.
