My contract ran out today, so I rang them up to cancel the contract, my plan was to get the Erickson K700i for free.

Okay I just told her straight that I want to cancel and not wanting the PAC code.

She asked if my O100 monthly is okay, I said yes

Then why cancel ?

I want an K700i but at the Nokia shops you have to pay to pay about £70 to upgrade.

She said she would see what she could do, and to hang on, comes back and says that the phones £79.99 but will give me a £74.99 discount, is that okay ? I said yeh okay I will go for that.

Maybe, just maybe I could have got the £5 off as well ??

Anyway I did not want to go through the hassel of moving, since I have an XDA2 and these have to be unlocked from the O2 network to use elsewhere with varying successrates. So I get a £5 K700i to sell on Smile Since I got a free replacement XDA2 about 2 weeks ago !

Very Happy

So I suggest you go straight for cancellation and tell them straight that you wanted x phone but that it costs for upgrade but if you move it to another provider its free, and see what deal they offer you. If you push a bit harder you may even get it for free.
