Hi , I was just wondering if (for me), is their any benefit upgrading my contact early or terminating it and starting a new one. I can terminate my contract for £107 or i can upgrade for £95. I know this sounds stupid but if i upgrade will that add more time on my contract or will it not affect it? My contract ends in November so not sure if i should just terminate. Thanks

From understanding their contracts (I used to work in Carphone warehouse) ending the contract would always be more than upgrading because they give you some money off. Its an incentive (though not a lot) to keep your business. However, depends if you will get a dramatically better deal renewing.

People generally end their contracts early because they want to change the phone. o2 Refresh is a clever ploy to make you upgrade more regularly. It doesnt work out a cheaper way of doing it as you pay a premium to upgrade due to buying the phone and contract seperately. You could source this yourself but as with everything its worth doing your homework.

You've not said why you want to do either of those things.

If you want a new handset, the cheapest way of doing so would be to just buy the handset.
