sunnyday Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) Hi all Probably telling you something you already know..........but just in case this helps someone save some money here goes! I have my mobile on contract with O2 - for the past three years I have rung them at this time of year when my contract would be due for renewal and negotiated new and improved terms ............ but the best bit is they offer to replace your phone - I don't need a new phone so I ask for an appropriate amount to be credited to my account............have just got £75.00 credit - not bad I thought. My bills are usually around the £15.00 mark so therefore about 5 months of 'free use'! Hope this is useful Sunnyday Edited May 28, 2009 by sunnyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possum Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 er 75 divided by 15 is 5, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 er 75 divided by 15 is 5, isn't it? I was confused too, but I think sunnyday has edited her original post to make the correction. Perhaps one of them will let on what it originally said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps one of them will let on what it originally said. I'm not proud!!! I got a little carried away with the excitement of saving some money and thought for one glorious moment I was going to get '7 months' of free use!

Beau Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I can see why that might happen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 It is always worth asking.... I often say that if you don't ask you don't get!! Hadn't thought about how much they would credit my account though if I didn't have a new phone! Mindyou..... I do like to get a new toy..................

sunnyday Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 Goodness me - my daughter-in-law has just told me that her sister got £150 credit - her phone was only one year old though and no doubt a 'flashier' model than mine!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Mindyou..... I do like to get a new toy.................. I have to confess that I love a new toy too - just upgraded my mobile to a sparkly new BlackBerry. Trouble is I am now never out of contact... and also I need to use my reading glasses when I access the forum from my phone! Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upsy Daisy Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Trouble is I am now never out of contact... and also I need to use my reading glasses when I access the forum from my phone! Maz Must remember never to get a Blackberry. If I could access this forum from my phone I would never get anywhere - literally. I would get bored halfway round Tesco and log on to look for new posts!

Guest Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 LOL! That's exactly what I do! Infuriates my husband no end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upsy Daisy Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 What, in Tesco? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Tesco, anywhere really! Especially annoys him when we are supposed to be having time off. He hasn't grasped that early years staff don't have time off. Often I remember tips I've read on hear and "need" to check things I have to buy for an activity I'm planning. Well that's my excuse!

Upsy Daisy Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 My husband feels much the same. We were knocking down an old coal store on Monday and I suddenly remembered some out of date food colouring in the cupboard and went off to make a discovery bottle with it (after reading about them on here). Can't imagine why he objected to being left to move all the old bricks by himself! Just one thought though. If I had a blackberry it would solve the problem of my daughter wanting her laptop back to do her homework! Honestly, children can be so egocentric!
