I believe my contract is through an O2 O2 provider, O2 select or something like that, but CW were moving me to their own O2 service provider.

Basically the whole thing takes the proverbial. After paying bill by direct debit for 2.5 years without any upgrades, sometimes with monthly bills around the £300 mark, you'd think they would have a means of knowing what I would get on the high street and then try to match it.

I think I'm going to wait a week and then renew my contract as at the end of the day they are all as bad as eachother. And by renewing with them I don't have to pay the months notice so can move over to the new contract with the new phone straight away.

I just couldn't believe they (O2) would haggle with me while I was in carphone warehouse using a call payed for by CW after I had made a verbal agreement with CW about the deal I would take.

Credit to CW though, the guy there said 'no worries, at least you got the right deal for you with the least hassle, it happens' and didn't seem annoyed that he had affectively lost the sale when trying to switch me over. Credit to them/him
