I have had a contract with O2 since Feb this year, the phone i had was stolen in June and i didn't bother getting a replacement, i just left the contract to run out (£20 per month).
It's time for a new mobile and i fancy a 6260/6670/7610, there are cracking deals around the web but as usual the phone call to O2 means rip off upgrade charges. I got my PAC code with the intention of moving to O2 online. I was talking to a guy in a phone shop and he says that after i give O2 Online my PAC code they will charge me an extortionate upgrade fee on my next bill.
I was always told O2 Online are a seperate company and i don't fancy paying £80-£100 for a supposedly free phone.
Does anyone have any advice? Would i be able to just cancel with O2 and forget about the PAC code (lose the old number) and the re-sign with O2 a couple of days later?
Anyone have any experience, any help much appreciated.
