Unlikely to do anything, though Orange do upgrades 3 months before the contract times out so you may well already be due an upgrade. Best bet is to give them a ring.
I'm pretty sure they won't bother contacting you, they'll probably keep you on the same contract as you're on (ie same price, mins/texts etc) but make it a rolling one so you can cancel at any point after your contract is up.
You'll have to phone the up if you want to cancel entirely, or try haggle for a better deal or phone

Just to make sure people are aware, you can upgrade 3 months early but these will be tacked onto the end of your next contract.
You should phone up before the final month of your contract is up to re-negotiate your deal and upgrade - Orange will not call you as has been said.
Cool guys cheers for the information.
I will have 3 months left at the end of next month so i will give them a call and see what they say.
Might actually go to another company as orange seem to have a terrible network ( My signal on the Tocco ultra is pretty crap ).
Who has the best network out there? Need something thats quick at loading facebook for when im bored in work

Well the time has come for an upgrade, and just LOL at the prices.
Been offered a huge list of phones, main ones being
Iphone 4 - 18 month - £45pm - 1200mins - unlimited texts - 500mb net and free sat nav - £314 upgrade fee.
HTC Desire - 18 month - £45pm - 1200mins - unlimited texts - 500mb net and free sat nav - £85 upgrade fee.
Galaxy S - 18 month - £45pm - 1200mins - unlimited texts - 500mb net and free sat nav - £118 upgrade fee.
Xperia - 18 month - £45pm - 1200 mins - unlimited texts - 500mb net and free sat nav - £128 upgrade fee.
The iphone 4 price is just insane. I really dont want a 24 month contract ( feel its too long ) and trying to get these phones on a 12month is virtually impossible.
Some others i can upgrade too are
BlackBerry 8520
LG GT540 Optimus Swift
Samsung Galaxy Apollo i5801
BlackBerry 8520 Gemini
BlackBerry Bold 9700 Onyx
HTC Hero
Nokia X6 16GB
Samsung Wave S8500
Any ideas what to go for?
Seriously tempted with the Desire.

Those upgrade prices arnt great. Ring them up and tell them you have found better deals. Certainly wouldnt be paying extar for a new phone.
If they tell me those prices when I'm due to change they can go and do one.

Yeah, the Iphone 4 is less than that so I don't know who you've spoken to. I tried to upgrade to the Iphone 4, although Orange is £60 more than anyone else they would not budge on price! I'll be waiting 3 months until my contract ends and get a 12 month contract on Tesco for the same as Orange want for an 18 month one.
