My phone has just come to the end of it’s contract.
I have been with Vodafone for the last few years so I would be happy just to upgrade my phone with them. It will cost me £129 to upgrade to the phone im after (i know slate me but I want the iphone so I dont have to pay to download all my apps again) however if you start a new contract with vodafone (from the carphone warehouse) it is free for the phone so would save me £129.
Now vodafone say if I did this I wouldnt be able to keep my number. They say you can only retain your number if you move to a new provider not just a new contract. Is this true?
Could I simply transfer the old number to an o2 pay as you go simcard for a day and then transfer it back to vodafone on the new contract?
Is that too much hassle to save £129?
