Hi all,
My 24 month ontract runs out on the 1st August, however when I login and go to upgrade it, the site tells me I cant visit the shop from an address outside the UK.
Im in the British Armed Forces and have spent 9 years serving abroad, this wont change anytime soon, is there a way I can browse the site being logged in abroad? I wont be back in the UK until after August.
Cheers,
Elvis

I won't be much help i'm afraid other than to say I don't live in the UK and can access the upgrade site & shop fine. I am within the EU though so not sure whether there's a location limit for accessing outside the UK!
I want to find out if I can get my new phone sent to my international address! Hope you get a more useful response than I gave!

Ah, you do realise that the contract is a minimum term of 24 months so it will continue on at the current tariff at which point you can give 30 days notice to terminate the contract? So if you could in theory just keep on paying until you come back and sort it out.
Though its not particularly well known (apart from on here!), that if you are posted to a theatre of war you could actually get out of the contract with no penalty - subject to confirmation of course.
Otherwise, if you can, try a UK proxy server and see if it works that way.
