How to add an O2 Refresh custom plan to your Staff Plan

  1. You can add an O2 Refresh custom plan to your Staff Plan by:
    1. Working out how much you want to pay to get the device you want at:
      www.o2.co.uk/shop/phones for handsets,
      www.o2.co.uk/tablets for tablets; or
      www.o2.co.uk/shop/smartwatches for Apple Watch.
    2. Spreading the cost of your Device Plan between 3 to 36 months.
    3. Selecting:
      - the 5GB Airtime Plan for your handset;
      - the 2GB Airtime Plan for your tablet; and/or
      - the unlimited data plan for Apple Watch. If purchasing an Apple Watch, you will need an iPhone 6 or newer on Custom Plans or an O2 Pay Monthly SIM Only plan & an iPhone 6 or newer.
      Please note, if you successfully complete the process set out in this clause, you will receive a 60GB data allowance for handsets and tablets, despite having selected the tariff referred to above.
    4. Once you’ve signed up to O2 Refresh, complete the online staff pay monthly request form found here on the intranet.
    5. You will receive the Staff Plan for the length of your Device Plan.

Remember, with O2 Refresh custom plans, you can upgrade as often as you want. All you need to do is pay off your Device Plan in full.

    1. If you're still a Tef UK employee, you can upgrade to a new O2 Refresh Staff Plan and you won’t have to pay for your Airtime Plan for the duration of the Device Plan of your new contract.
    2. If you're still a Tef UK employee, and you don't upgrade, you'll be moved to the SIM Only Staff Plan until you upgrade, change tariff or leave O2. This plan currently includes unlimited minutes & texts, 50 MMS and 60GB data for £16 a month (subject to the annual RPI increase).
    3. If you don't work for Tef UK anymore, and choose to upgrade, you can take out a new contract which will be subject to the terms of our consumer tariffs available at the time.

If you don’t work for Tef UK anymore, and choose not to upgrade, you will be moved to a Pay Monthly rolling 30 day SIM Only airtime tariff for £16 a month (subject to annual RPI increases) for your device until you choose to upgrade, change tariff or leave O2. This is a 1GB tariff and where this tariff is applied to a handset, you will also receive unlimited minutes & texts.
