Been offered a free upgrade next month for the n73 or n80. Im leaning towards the n73.

I had a proper play with one today and it seemed a bit slow navigating when taking a picture.

T & T 200.

Not a bad deal really. Plus 3 months half price but I think I going to haggle 6 months out of them.

Is that a 12 month deal, if it is I think I will have to be upgrading sooner than I should ( end of my contract is October & I think ):)

bavlondon

Yes its a 12month deal. And you can also push a 60 day early upgrade. Upgrades wont do it though, to get a 60 day early upgrade its best to go to customer options. In my experience anyway.......

Thanks Bav
I am schooled in the art of network arm twisting :D as my last deal got me an N70 for free with HPLR for 6 months on T&T 600.
The N70 had only been out for a week;)
I think I will be ringing up today for my N73:D

Good stuff. The onyl gripe id say with video playback is that because the screen is so much bigger than the n70, subcequently the captured video doesnt look as good.

The same applies for the K800 compared with the w800/k750.

Still though the new OS is lightning fast when generally navigating around the menus.

Check out this deal!

25 UK Video Minutes anytime, any network

Is the 512MB internet real?!! :speechles Would it work with programs like for podcasts and 3rd party email programs too? Or is it just internet surfing through a Yahoo program. I know Yahoo Go is great i had that on my 6630. You can upload videos to Flickr and stuff. But with Shozu you can also upload videos etc. to websites like Youtube :) Is that possible with this contract?

How on earth did you manage that Sicknote.

The best they offered me for a free upgrade was T & T 900 with no months half price line rental.

Any tips for haggling, what buttons should I be pressing?
Thanks

I spoke to one tonight. I phoned in saying that I wanted to pay of the line rental off and cancel the contract as O2 were going to offer me a £35 a month tarrif with 6 months half price line rental. The rep (who was very friendly) said if I waited till next Sunday he would cal em back and offer me the same deal with the n73 for free.

Aside from that there also going for quite cheap on ebay.

Hi Bav
I have some time so here go's
If I have it right , you need opion 1-5-3 and that should get you to where they say that you want to leave.

This is the retenions team and they have the most power to get you a good deal.
You must say that you know that some people have the deal that I have got, and keep on pushing for it (keep saying that you know some people have got that deal)
Here endeth the lesson:D
I hope this helps
