I would guess that as long as you have paid and pay your contract, no operator would give two hoots where the money comes from.
I got ticked off with O2 because they wanted £80 to upgrade me to the phone I liked. I got a better deal on the same phone with O2 from a high street dealer, the downside was I had to change my number. When I phoned O2 to cancel my original contract, they said they would have matched the deal. T
he moral of the story is haggle with everyone to get the deal that suits you.
P4U gave me a £150 for free because I wouldn't budge on paying a penny for it and I was ready to walk out of the shop.
When this contract is up I will see what they offer, but will look for the deal that suits me with the phone I like, even though I like Three, I would consider changing, except to T-Mobile as the signal at home is poor and I would want web'n'walk.
Don't forget - Haggle!
