    You can do what you want with the phone,its yours...

    Your probably better going with somebody new to get a good deal on a new phone

    OP, you will be a free agent at the end of the contract and the phone is yours to keep (you'll need to ask them for the unlock code if you want to move to another network) but one of the stunts the phone companies may try on with you is to phone you before the contract is up to offer you a discount on your monthly bill if you sign up for another 'nn' months.

    What they will not tell you is that you will get nothing for doing so. What you should do is absolutely nothing until the end of the contract at which stage you can see what type of offer they can put on the table in the form of a new phone or if you're happy with the phone, just drop down to a basic contract and save yourself a heap of money.

    If you can afford to do so, buy a new phone SIM-free, then you can cherry-pick the best deal thats out there and you'll have the option to move network any time you choose. Subsidized phones are crap when it comes to value for money.
