friendlymonkey: Hmm I also would have expected to get more mins/data signing up to a minimum term.

So... you want us to force you to be locked in? It's a pretty simple choice: if you want a cheap (up-front) phone, then you can sign up for 24 months to get it. If you don't want a new phone, then you can get better network value and we don't force you to sign up for 24 months.

I'm already locked in...I'm an existing customer, who were told that we would always be placed on the most recent $39 plan (which was the same between open term and 24 month term), now 2 degrees has separated these plans and added significantly more value to the open term contract, while leaving customers on the 24 month term as is.

And at the time you received an incentive for signing on the 24 months I presume, so you want to have gotten the benefit, but don't want to pay for that benefit by providing 2D who provided that benefit with the cost certainty they get from a contract?

hagrid: maybe he's asking if you can give him more mins then are on the open term plans in return for a contract, instead of a phone....

My agreement was to remain on whatever current $39 monthly plan there is.  Now 2 Degrees have split the open term and 24month plans to avoid increasing the allowance of the 24 month plan, while vastly increasing the allowance on the open term plan.

Before the open term and the 24 month plans were the same when it came to allowance, but that has recently changed.

itxtme: Feel free to show us old3eyes, I can see a 500mb for 29 but no 1.5gig, also way less talk time, 150 vs 300

Where is this info?

Spong: I'd really like to know if there are indeed any disadvantages to shifting from my Carryover plan to the same priced Freedom plan.

I'd like to know for sure whether I'll lose any accumulated data and minutes and whether data sharing with up to 5x other SIM cards will still work.

So far, no one seems to know for sure. How hard can it be?
