Sure, sell your current iPhone on eBay and pay the difference to the new one.

what did you say to get the upgrade ?

^ i would like to know this too.

I assume you all realise that

a) this upgrade you're talking about involves a new contract, with handset repayments etc,

b) if there are new iPhone plans that come in the next couple of months, you won't be able to change over to them without paying to get out of that contract, and

c) you can't have two sets of handset repayments on one service number, so you'd have to pay out the handset repayments as well (and that's assuming they will even allow that, something I wouldn't take as a certainty).

Right now, with new iPhones around the corner, is the last time I would be signing any new contracts.

I just told them that I have been a customer for 10 years and would be switching to Telstra when the new iPhone came out if they made me pay out the contract.

I knew that new iPhones are most probably just around the corner, however I thought that my chances of getting the fees waived might be better now when they are trying to get rid of the current models, and when there isn't a heap of other people trying for a free upgrade a year into their current iPhone contract.

I'm satisfied with the current gen, there would have to be a fair few surprises in the new model to make me really want that one over the current one.
