Most networks are offering month-to-month sim only contracts.
Has anyone cancelled one of these?

I am curious to know if the networks offer any incentives to stay, as they try to do when you cancel a regular contract.

I cancelled a Solo SIM on T-Mobile on the 21st Aug. All they did was ask me why I was leaving, I told them that O2 had a better deal. Then they just confirmed that my number would be disconnected on the 21 Sept. That was it - no trying to offer me a better deal, just thanks and goodbye.

Same here, just cancelled my Virgin 300 +300.
Over to T-mobile 350 mins, 650 texts £15.
Virgin just said ok thanks we will disconnect you in 7 days

i wouldnt think they can really offer you too much. They give a lot of allowances on them anyway plus they could potentially be upping your allowances every month if you said you were quitting each time.

People are only (usually) quitting because they can get a better deal elsewhere, so T-Mobile could maybe offer to match it?

Cancelled my O2 Simplicity 15 contract today. Still tried to offer me a discount and more minutes & texts, but said no thanks as my reason for cancelling was poor reception and non-existent 3G coverage where I live. PAC code on its way.
