Hi

I am looking to get a new phone for work - which will be paid for through the company.

I am just wondering though if there is a reason why I woudl get a Business contract over a Personal one, especially as the personal ones seem cheaper?

Thank You

Normal consumer contract would be most suitable.
Business contracts tend to be taken mostly by businesses to give out to employees.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Hi

thank you for your resopnse. So if the company are paying it through their bank account it is ok for it to be a personal rental?

Yes, no problem and you can't reclaim the VAT from either contract unless you are self employed.
