3rd parties get commission from networks to resell contracts and they pass on some of that commission to their customers in the way of cheaper contracts.
This works for some customers but not for others, as you won't get refresh deals or be entitled to any of the o2 discount schemes.

No 3rd parties offer refresh or o2 open discounts.
You also won't be eligible for additional line discounts unless you contract with o2 directly.

They should without doubt be rewarding existing customers for their loyalty when they renew contracts. O2 say they operate a fair deal for all policy meaning new customers and existing customers are treated the same. That just isn't true. New customers get incentives to join O2 and loyal existing customers have to look elsewhere for better prices and deals.
I see no point in staying with a network that cares nothing for customers having removed three apps that benefitted customers all in the name of money. They have alienated hundreds of thousands of existing customers by doing so but they could care less.
You get all the benefits(?) Of being with O2, apart from Refresh and probably wifi calling. Other than that they are under obligation for all your contractual needs.

And unlike other 'utility companies' you are rarely able to haggle for a discount.
Threaten to leave BT, Sky, Virgin et al...you are invariably offered an incentive to stay.

Unfortunately they don't, as I've said already.
You may also miss out on wifi calling, depending on which phone you choose, but if the missing benefits are of no use to you, then go for the cheapest deal. Why wouldn't you ?
