I already have an iphone 5 with 02 on pay monthly.
I phoned up 02 customer services (sales) to ask the best deals for a new samsung note 3.
I told the woman that Carphone Warehouse offers this deal:
http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/choose-tariff/SAMSUNG_GALAXY_NOTE_3/MONTHLY?viewDealForAll=... Galaxy Note 3
600mins | Unlimited Texts | 750mb Data | Free Phone | £27p/m (on 02 @ Carphone Warehouse).
For some unknown reason 02 directly cant match this deal... Why? There best deal is £37 p/m and £30 for the phone!!
What is the idea behind allowing Carphone Warehouse to do a deal this good, if there own company cant match it or even beat it??
Im aware that this is a deal at carphone warehouse , however even without the deal carphone warehouse on 02 is still cheaper than 02 directly?
Thanks in advance for anyone that can shed some light on this for me.

This is down to many factors like cpw buying in bulk handsets and they then lock to first network.
Only applies to iphones.

cpw obiously still take a percentage from the contract, so 02 are still losing out by me not buying the phone from themseleves directly.
