o2 Online update

yak.h'cir · 27 Oct 2006 at 22:18

Well I say update, this morning I saw the site had changed, along with all of their prices being hiked massively! I was looking at the N80 for 49.99 on online100, its now 129.99!!!! I was waiting for the next price drop as they seem to do them every few weeks... until now of course!

Just checked out the site again to see it doesnt seem to be working properly at all. Anyone else having the same problem?

What do you think the chances are of phoning up and asking for the old price being sucessful?

worth a go, not like you have anything to lose, except money

One thing i don't like about the O2 site is that the blackberry phones are never offered, even if you phone up, but if you ask about them they will happily offer you them. Just odd as i'm sure a fair few people must be on the lookout for Blackberry's just O2 seem to hide them!
Managed to get a nice deal yesterday from them:
500minutes, 1000texts, Blackberry Pearl 8100 for £25 a month, and i can lower my minutes to 300 after 6months and pay £20 a month

Only a 12month contract aswell

Allways worth phoning them if they dont offer the deal you want just try again someother agent may give you the deal

I recently renewed my contract getting D900 and N91 one on O2 200 that comes with 200 mins and 100 texts and the other one on O2 250 with 250 mins...got the phones free and for £15 per month on a 12 month contract.

Only got that deal on my 5th call and asking for my PAC.

yeah its with Online, but they offered me help instore, it was a pain in the ass to get this contract but glad i have it now, they were trying to send me between store and online saying GPRS wouldn't work, then some other bull.
Happily told them where to go, foned back, got different salesperson and he offered me that nice contract with no problems about GPRS.

Beware of the women on the phones, never had a good deal from them, the blokes seem to be more lenient

Is it just me or does O2 have a terrible choice of phones these days ?

No equivalent to the Vario 2, or Orange SPV and god knows where my P990i is that i ordered 2 weeks ago, not to mention the online price hikes

Time for a change methinks

Really? I went in today and thought the deals in store were quite poor. I think the T Mobile flext is probably the best value around atm.
