I rang up about that. Basically the deal is:

If you last upgraded your phone before September 18th 2007 (which you did I'm guessing if you're due to expire in Xmas 2008), then you can sign up for a new iPhone contract and your existing contract will be scrapped without any fees.

If you last signed a contract with O2 AFTER September 18th 2007 then you have to pay to get out of that contract... or take the iPhone contract out separately.. stupid I know :mad:

Just flog your handset and put the money towards the new contract?
 
I'm glad I bought in to the official tariff now :)

Definitely much more usable!

Not really, and who cares if they do - I'm secure enough with my own mobile phone decision to not need to worry about what a few uneducated people think. Plus, surely a thread about an O2 tariff should be in the mobile phone section rather than the Mac Hardware section.

Meh, it's an Apple product. Mac Hardware :p
 
So how easy should it be to change from an O2 Simplicity tariff to the legit iPhone one?

I'm guessing I just restore it back to the state it was in out of the box. Then get started into activating it in iTunes, and somewhere during the signup will be the option to use my existing O2 account sign on.

It's easy.

When you set up the phone in iTunes you're given the option to port an existing number, amongst other things :)
 
If the leaked SDK key turns out to be legit then expect a number of apps to surface that'll be compatilble, with no messing about :)

Then again, I suspect 1.1.4 to be released just before the SDK.
 
Funny how many people went legit since the new 1.1.3 firmware and boosted tariffs ;):D
 
gah still waiting for my change-over, have started using more minutes / texts cause I keep thinking I can now, error, bet my last old-tariff bill is going to be horrible!

I was doing that, until I realised it hadn't swapped over.

Luckily the txt came through saying the process was complete :cool:

I'll bet you they'll have a lot of over-spenders because of that very reason..
