I currently 10 months into my ee sim only 24 month contract. I am looking to upgrade to a handset with an airtime agreement. When is it I will be able to do this?

@soulmate82 it might be possible now. You’ll be best off calling customer support about this as they go through what options you do have

For new customers or those previously on PAYG, there is a 6month minimum-period from initial connection, after which you can upgrade from SIM-only to a handset-agreement.
For customers who were previously on a handset agreement and moved to SIM-only, you can move back at any time.
The T&Cs also reference a "SIM access" user who is subject to a 10month lockout, I suspect this is the social tariffs.
