Link didn't really help a lot to be honest. Well, maybe the number you can text to find out what priority class you fit into. I take it their phone lines will be very busy on the 24th. Or can you call and pre-order it earlier?

Pre-ordering on the 15th still applies to the UK AFAIK, not sure of the process though.
Lol the same link thats been up here for hours

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
From what I gathered, you can pre-order from the 15th to 24th in order to get your phone on launch day. This is how I've interpreted it anyway, don't take it as gospel.
Don't know about PAYG, I'm sure we'll get more details when they release the pricing as well, though.

I rang Vodafone today (business account) and was told they will be taking pre-orders on the 15th, so will be upgrading all handsets to the iPhone4 (as they expire on 21/06).
Just need to get myself it on PAYG for personal now... Hopefully can do online on 15th, to save Q-ing in store / on the phone.

Hmmmm, I'm not happy with the fact they are changing the tarrifs, well I'd say more nervous. lol.
I current sit at £140 to cancel and start again...
So iphone sells for £280, 140 left for new phone and to start contract again, (but it could be a worse tarrif (being the tossers they are)
or
Sell iPhone for £280, leaving me needing £170 to buy new iPhone, spend £170, continue my contract and when it runs out in 7 months go simplicity and be contract free basically.
Interesting....

Well according to that quote from random internet geek, apple have said they'll be the same as current 3gs prices.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
Think you are being a bit ambitious with your £280 for the trade in, try more £245 I'd say.
This is the same situation I am in, so I'm thinking go pay phone and continue this contract so that we will be out of contract this time next year to get the next upgrade without having to worry ether they are going to do a deal again to upgrade early.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
So for example, Ive put in my date and it says I've got to pay £180, Fair enough. But then I've got to buy the phone as well correct?

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
I'm going to take a guess at saying O2 will remove 'unlimited' from the new price plan if you decide to upgrade early.
I'm certain there will be a sting in there somewhere.
I've done exactly that, sold my 3GS 16GB last night (guy collecting/paying cash today) for £320.
The best option imo, sell the phone, and buy a PAYG 4.
This way, keep the current contract, and don't potentially loose out on mins/texts/internet by upgrading early.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
Trade in? No! Sell on CS? Yes!
Mine is in pretty damn find condition tbh, so should not struggle to sell
I'm thinking PAYG will be a good idea too tbh, then no worry about o2's latest "sting" and no worrying about having to upgrade early ever again, as I can always sell the phone each year and get the newest one.
Correct indeed, so sell the phone and pay off the contract, you're free to start again,
I think they'll have to take away unlimited texts, as its about the only thing I can't imagin people would really shout about. If unlimited data went, I think it'd cause madness, and if the minutes got any less then people would go elsewhere.
I'm with you on it being the best option on PAYG I think, but I'll wait to sell my iPhone Friday and see what happens afterwards.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
Buying out a contract is madness. Can imagine a few people will go for it though...
You'll save £15 a month for the rest of your contract... But you won't actually get anything for it (i.e. minutes/texts etc)... And then you'll be tied into another 2 year contract immediately aswell.

Most companies give you 14 days to send it to them before the price they quote is nulled.
It's only 14 days till the new one is released

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
O2 is 7 days for the quote.
I am pretty confident that the PAYG price for the iPhone will be the same as the 3GS. So that will be £440 for the 16Gb.
At the end of the day, It makes no difference for me, I was always going to shift my 3GS but I would rather get the cash now, prior to shelling out for this new iPhone, it doesnt really matter what the cost is as I will be getting it anyway.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
My contract is available for upgrade via Vodafone. I'm thinking of going with 02 though as I fancy a chance.
What's the benefits of PAYG Vs contract. I know you're not locked in.. I've just always been on contract and never considered what kind of deals you could get with PAYG w/ a good amount of txts and data usage.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

If you want to keep your existing contract then you'll have to buy and pay and go phone.
The moment you upgrade you enter a new contract with new terms and conditions.

You should be fine if its an iPhone contract. You can choose to keep your current tariff even if it is out-of-date and not supplied to new customers

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
As snoop says, by accepting to upgrade and pay off at £20 a month, then you have to be willing to accept their new contract details, which we currently don't know anything about... tossers.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
So if if I just run out my current phone (not an iphone) contract on Vodafone I could buy a PAYG iPhone 4 and get a rolling 1 month Simplicity contract for it? Would probably be cheaper in the long run I guess?

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)
The best option is to buy the PAYG version, hopefully Apple will sell a sim unlocked one straight from the get go as all the major networks are on board with the iPhone 4 (o2, orange, voda, t-mobile and 3). If they don't sell a sim unlocked version directly, then hopefully the likes of o2 will still offer the unlock for 15 quid.
You're then free to do whatever the hell you like.

I'll have to wait of course for the officials. I wasn't sure how Simplicity worked with an iPhone compared to other phone models.
They should of announced it at the same time they did the US stuff. All part of the fun and suspense though I guess!

Want to bet? Its not hard to talk o2 down. Especially after the other couriers release prices. I presumed the 40% I get off now would be continued, like most people would I suppose. I'll just have to see

Dont bother texting it unless you want to know what priority you are. Otherwise you can just go to http://shop.o2.co.uk/new-iphone/earlyupgradeoffer.html to find out how much your early cancellation fee will be
