When should i call EE to move to a SIM Only plan?
Quackers

Currently on a 24 Month contract, but decided to just buy the iPhone 6 outright this time so i want to move to SIM Only so there is no phone subsidy included in my plan.

Next upgrade date: 17 Dec 2014
Contract renewal date: 31 Jan 2015

Not quite sure when the best time to phone EE is so that on the 1st Feb i am paying for SIM Only. Would it be once I've hit that upgrade date of the 17th or 30 days before the 31st Jan so 31st Dec?

If you speak to them they will tell you, i suspect it will be 30 days prior to the expiry, thats a generic period of time.

Upgrades are slightly different, a friend recently changed from an out of contract t mobile contract to a sim only ee the next day and received a refund for the unused days on the t-mobile contract - I am not sure the 30 day applies to upgrades.

I think that's right, and 'upgrades' seem to refer to any change.

I had a T Mobile 'Full Monty' 24 month contract, that was due to expire on Aug 1st. I phoned on July 1st to give notice I wanted to convert it to SIM only from that (Aug 1)
date, and they did it there and then. I received a pro rata refund for the month of July, which amazed me, but hey !

Usually if you're within 3 months (ish) of the contract expiry date they'll just upgrade you there and then, at least that's what they did with my old T-mobile contract.
