Ok here's the deal..... bought a Nokia N73 last August on a 12 month contract from the carphone whorehouse. I'm not using the phone enough now to warrant a contract and so called them yesterday to say that when my contract is up I want to go back onto pay as you go.
The mush on the phone said that if they lose a customer's contract, they get charged a by O2 (whose network I use) and so would like to offer me a free contract for 12 months. 50 mins a month and 100 texts. Call charges applicable if over these limits at 20p/min and 12p per text - fair enough I though. He said that as I would be due a new phone (but not receiving one) they would credit my account with £300 which would take care of the call charges.
I said that it seems a bit too good to be true to me but the guy on the phone reassured me that the contract was as he was describing. They're sending me details.
Anyone heard about this sort of thing?
