Currently on O2 but they won't give me a free upgrade so may look into changing networks - not a happy chappy.

Which is best and what phone is good. The V3 looks good as does the new samsung...

Any idea's?

Why won't they give you a free upgrade?  I get a free upgrade every year but you have to have been on the contract for 12 months

Cheers mate!!!

Pieman's right. They'll give me a free upgrade but not the phone I want! Just find it Diabolical that they can give a phone away for free but want to charge me even tho my tariff is more aswell!!!

I have had O2 for the last 3 years, and apart from the customer services line being a tad rubbish i have always found them ok!

Most people i know are on O2, so calls are free/cheap too.

I'm on Vodafone, never had a problem with them whatsoever and their coverage is superb. I've got a Samsung D500 and it's lovely, got it for £15 from Phones4U. Go in and haggle.
