I got the text message from O2 this afternoon.
Phoned them immediately for confirmation and was surprised to be told that
as they had detrimentally changed my T&Cs, I would be released from my
contract with no penalties, if that was what I wanted to do!!
I have 8 months of an 18 month contract to go and am a bit of a quandary
now.
I have 2 handsets on the o2 600 with long weekends, plus an additional 400
text messages each month (promotion when I signed up) for £35 Added to
this is the £10 per month 20Mb data package.
I suppose, my question is..is there anything that compares out there??

I have an O2 PUFFL - I got the message too.
Afaik there aren't any new contracts that include 08 numbers as
inclusive minutes. Remember that, in January 2008, the rules change
for 0870, so services using that number type will probably have
changed number by then.

I was in the same position so I transferred both my phones to the O2
simplicity plan which is a 30 day notice tarrif. In a nutshell I get the
same minutes/texts/free weekends for £15 (each) less each month and am no
longer tied into an 18 month contract..
It will do untill something else comes along :-)

Smart move if you're not on the lookout for a new phone.

That was why I did it !! I've only just got 2 new N95's from O2 and as they
came unlocked I feel that it was now a good deal !
