I think in the past 12 months always felt like "yeah I'll leave when it's up"

and then they could butter you up with offers

Bit different on 2 year deals. There's more chance of the handset going wrong = they'll do their "we told you so" about the insurance.

It's amazing that you're worth about a ?1000 a contract to them, but they smugly treat like s**t when you need service

Never again
