| If your on a contract I suggest upgrading every year. I do. All I do is phone the company Im with an ask for the PAC code which is the code you need to take your number with you to a new provider ie from Orange to Vodafone etc. Usually this gets customer services in a flap and they ask why you want to leave. Tell em you really like the such and such phone that O2 or other is doing and its free if you move across and yes the tariff is the same.
I did this last december and orange fell over themselves to offer me a Phone that you could only get on a £50 a month tariff, 30 free texts, 60 extra inclusive minutes cross network and yes also reduced my monthly tariff from £25 to £15 for the next twelve months.
If you dont ask they wont go out of their way to offer you incentives to stay. Anyone who doesnt renew each 12 months is a fool in my view. Afterall you keep you old handset so then you have a spare or can pass it own to the kids
