Like Saab I've just been offered a free upgrade by Orange from my Nokia 6630 to the N70 after only six months!

I visited the Orange Website and logged in to find that I could get the K750i FOC. Tasha is on the same tariff as me (Premier 600) but when we logged in on her account the upgrade was shown to cost £150. Feeling somehow that she was being discriminated against she phoned them to ask why. It turns out, as Garyi has suggested, that it's because my monthly spend is higher than hers. I pay the full £55/month with an average monthly spend of about £75, while Tasha gets the discounted rate of £40 for the first six months. Tasha told the guy that we'd been looking at the website and that I didn't even want the K750i.... He told her to put me on the phone to talk to him.

He asked me what I wanted. I told him I wanted the N70 but it was showing to be out of stock. He said that there were some in stock and did I want one?

Yes was the answer, and I've since found a 20 year-old pay-as-you go buyer who is willing to pay £100 for my mint 6-month-old 6630. Job done, I collect 100 pounds, he gets a bloody nice phone for someone not on a contract.

I wouldn't touch a Sony Ericsson because Tasha had a K700i and whilst it was fairly user friendly the joystick was crap, as has already been stated, and the phone looked generally shagged after only a couple of months of living in her handbag.
