About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
**Update 2: Purchase of this device also gives you a 12 month free subscription to Disney+**
**Update: check that your trade in device is in the system and will be accepted on o2recycle.co.uk before starting this process - if your device isn't listed, then you won't be eligible for the extra £150 trade in value**
My previous deal post on this wasn't probably described as accurately as it could have been so hopefully this makes up for it - here are the steps on how to get yourself a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 128gb (white; burgundy; green; or black) sim-free for what works out at £555.40 after £300 cashback from Samsung, and £150 guaranteed trade in when you trade in any phone via O2 recycle which has a usual trade in value of more than £0:
(note: there are probably better deals out there is you want to get the phone with a contract - cheapest I could see was 24 months with ID mobile £79 upfront and £38.99 per month for 24 months 25gb data (total £714.76) but this O2 deal might work for those with sim only plans who don't want to change provider or current sim deal (like me!)
1. Open the link, choose your colour phone, and then scroll down to and click on 'see all our pre-built plans'
2. On the next page, scroll down to and click on the 'See our plans' drop down next to where it says Pay for your device in full
3. Choose any of the airtime plans (the phone cost should be showing at £1,005.40 - i went for the lowest 2gb plan @ £10 per month - click straight on 'Choose this plan'; don't click on where it says Trade in your old device and save on your monthly bill (you'll trade in on the O2 recycle site after your order has been placed to get the £150 as a lump sum).
4. Don't worry about choosing any extras as these are all linked to your plan, which you will be cancelling after the order has gone through so you're not tied into a contract. Go through all the extras; accessories etc bits and then Go to basket
5. Checkout and place your order, choosing either delivery or pick up from store and wait until you have your device before the next steps
6. To redeem your Extra £150 O2 Recycle offer, wait until you’ve received your new device then trade in your old one at o2recycle.co.uk using your O2 order number (MS-xxxxxxxxx) as a voucher code on the page where it confirms all of your phone details, and states how much your phone is worth. When you get the option about how to get the money for your trade in, don't choose choose device plan credit to use your trade-in value to lower your monthly plan; instead, choose the option to have the lump sum transferred to your bank account
7. Visit samsung.com/uk/cashback-offer/ and follow the instructions to claim your £300 cashback (paid within 30 days of validation of your purchase
8. Call O2 and tell them you wish to cancel your airtime plan; as you're on a refresh plan, these are only monthly rolling plans - if you have passed the 14 day cooling off period by the time you complete the above and call O2 to cancel, then you will need to pay the first months device plan cost (this will depend on which plan you chose when ordering the phone). if you would prefer to wait until you have received both the cashback amount and trade in amount before cancelling the contract then obviously you'll end up paying for 1 or 2 monthly plan costs
9. Once the device plan has been cancelled, the phone is yours as you've already paid upfront. Enjoy!
There are a couple of conditions to this deals - £300 cashback from Samsung is only valid where the device has been purchased (assume confirmation of your order having being received and accepted) by 20th December 2022, and the cashback must be claimed direct with Samsung within 60 days of purchase; the £150 guaranteed extra for your trade in only applies to devices purchased (as above) by 28th December 2022, you then have until 3rd January 2023 to complete your order process to trade in your old device, and must then complete the trade by returning your device to O2 Recycle so it is received by 17th January 2023.
Also, as you are applying for a contract initially then there will be a search ade against your credit record so please consider this if going ahead with this deal.

They don't appear to have been updated since October though.
Use o2 recycle.co.uk to try out your trade in and after entering all details (condition etc), if the recycle is valued at £0.01p or over then it should apply
O2 = poor network.
Plusnet was brilliant.
Didnt realise it doesn't have a memory slot neither... not great to be fair, one of the reasons iPhones were slated .. what next, headphone slot disappearing
Just ordered for 2yr contract switching from iPhone but now debating if made the right decision :/
I’ve been iPhone since the 4s
Seems like the Dimensity(sp?) or wait until 4nm CPU is the way to go forward if you game. If not, the IP13 Pro Max is still and absolutely incredible device for gaming+battery life.
Phone is good. Upgraded from a damaged s10 5g that started refusing to get signal after the back smashed.
