Hi,

I used to work for o2 and am still on the 50% staff discount on a standard 24 month contract, i am now due an upgrade and realise that i would lose my discount but my wife still works for o2 and could get me a 39% discount. I understand that only refresh tariffs are available now so what would be my best way of getting the best discount if i upgrade ?

Thanks in advance for any replies

Hi @Leedsgooner 

Welcome to the forum. Here is a link which should provide you with all the info you need

http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Other-Products-Services/O2-Open-and-Friends-and-Family-Discount-Schemes...

As long as you get your contract directly from O2 you can apply for the discount.
It doesn't matter if in store or on line as you claim the discount within the first month of starting the contract.

Edited to add. On refresh the discount is only applied to the airtime part of the contract...not the handset plan

Hi, does that mean my wife (an o2 employee) can apply for 50% off my airtime portion ?

Thank you

You need to ask her for one of her codes and then text it in as per the instructions above.
She will then have to confirm the code when she is on the intranet at work and the 50% will be applied to your airtime tariff.
