Hmm, When your Customer upgrade deal, Isn't

My contract was out and I kept seeing the eligible to upgrade messages, so took a look at a new S22+

 

Turns out It's cheaper to just take a sim plan and buy the phone off Samsung, So it  seems like the log in to see your existing customer deals really isn't worth the effort.

That's always been the way. Buy a phone outright & put an EE SIM in it is miles cheaper than buying the same phone on contract from EE or any other network.

Maybe so, I've never really looked into it before,  Just found it odd that paying full RRP for a phone and then buying a Sim only plan gets you a better deal than doing both through EE.

 

Still EE's lost profit is my gain I suppose.

Poor EE 😞 ! Maybe they make more profit from the airtime plan than from the hardware?
