Best Carphone Warehouse SIM only deals:

If you're happy with your current phone, in-between phones (perhaps you're waiting for the next big smartphone launch - iPhone 7S anybody?) or just want to save money on a monthly contract, SIM-only only deals are for you.

Carphone Warehouse's iD network is a great choice for SIM only because it offers some super deals including £5 per month for 1GB of data. 250 minutes and 5000 texts. You can also beef this up to 2GB and 500 minutes for an extra £2.50. Find out more by by checking out Carphone Warehouse's SIM-only deals page

There's fantastic choice for SIM-only deals and some very cost-effective SIM only options thanks to intense competition, and you can keep your existing number. All you need to do is keep within your monthly allowance, otherwise you'll end up paying more.

Flexibility is also a big benefit of SIM only, because you're on a rolling 30 day contract that you can cancel any time. And, if you want to shop around, check out TechRadar's best SIM-only deals page.

Carphone Warehouse pay as you go phones

As you might know, pay as you go (PAYG) deals don't tie you into any kind of contract whatsoever. You simply buy a phone from Carphone Warehouse and then top up your your minutes, texts and data when you need it (you'll know when you've run out). You also don't get credit checked, which you do with any type of pay monthly contract. Lots of handsets are available from Carphone on PAYG deals including phones from Samsung, Sony and Motorola. View all the Carphone Warehouse pay as you go deals.

Carphone Warehouse upgrades

Carphone Warehouse offers upgrades across the networks it offers on pay monthly and, what's more, you don't need to have bought from the retailer before. You can use Carphone's online upgrade checker to see if you're eligible. Some networks will even let you upgrade early such as O2, which lets you upgrade 30 days before the end of your current deal.

Note that you'll need to enter all your network details into the upgrade checker so Carphone Warehouse can check with your network. So it's best to have your bill to hand.

And if you need a new phone urgently but can't upgrade, check out Carphone's SIM-free or pay as you go phones.

Will Carphone Warehouse let me keep my number?

In a word, yes. You need to ask your current network for your PAC code (it's the code that lets you move your phone number from one network to another, called a Porting Authorisation Code).

Once you've got the PAC it's valid for 30 days - so don't hang about! if it expires you'll need to get another one.

Next, buy your new phone from Carphone Warehouse and tell them your PAC and your number will be transferred within a few days. If your new phone is on Virgin you'll need to call them directly once your phone is connected.

Trade ins with Carphone Warehouse

We all like a new phone, but if you're just stuffing your old handsets into a drawer then you're missing out, because you can get decent cash for your old handset. Carphone Warehouse offers a decent trade in scheme, with many two year old handsets still worth £150 - worth doing! Carphone will send you a packet to use to send in your handset, too.

Check out how much your handset is worth.

Mobiles.co.uk and e2save

If you've been extensively hunting the web for the best price on your new mobile, you may have come across Mobiles.co.uk and e2save. These two websites are part of the Carphone Warehouse family, but frequently come up with much better prices than Carphone manages itself.

Mobiles.co.uk features brilliant deals on the majority of the current flagship phones and if you enter the code 10OFF at the checkout, you'll save an extra tenner on the upfront price of the handset. e2save usually offers better value on older, budget phones - so if spending a lot on a new phone doesn't hold much appeal, click on the link above to see if they can help you out.

Who is Carphone Warehouse?
