I have been with O2 since before the change from "Cellnet", and yet I get nothing back for my loyalty. NHS staff get a discount. I retired from the NHS 18 months ago, and yet I am not entitled to a discount. I am a Service Veteran, and Service Veterans get nothing from O2. Not very good, is it?
O2 most certainly do support the armed forces (and NHS) with discounts. Have you checked with CS to see if you are eligible for either?

Do you know of any other networks that would give you a discount at all?

i was with voda for near on 12 years and when I left them to join o2 they didnt even try and convince me to stay... if you want discount ask for it, its your entitlement to ask.. but as you no longer work for the NHS be prepared for them to say no...
In my time with Vodafone when I asked for a discount (either at contract renewal or when out of contract) I got it. Same with a friend of mine who was on a sim only contract at £20pm. Wanted to cancel, offered half price, politely declined then got it for £5 per month.
Retentions have the best offer but be prepared to leave if you don't get what you want.
Also with Vodafone when contacting their sales teams as a new customer discounts are usually available. I got £10 a month off for two contracts which were £31 initially with free decent handsets just for asking.
With T Mobile I got 10% off for having two contracts at sign up.
You have to ask and be prepared to walk away and try again. Different agents offer different deals.
As piperdog says keep trying different agents don't just accept what the first one says they can and do still give loyalty discounts it's really down to who you speak to

That is my main bone of contention. O2 seem to have no interest in those on a pension, that have worked in organisations like the NHS or have served their Country. There is an organisation, called the Defence Discount Service, which has many large corporations and many smaller compainies, signed up, to give good discounts to service personnel and service veterans. Why do corporations like O2 not support our Armed Forces and Veterans.
