Dear Mr G,

Thank you for writing to Ronan Dunne about being able to purchase a Nokia N9 with a contract from us. I understand Nokia CEO Stephen Elop advised you they’re expecting to have this phone available through some online retailers in the UK.

I’m sorry but we’re not planning to provide this phone to our customers for either a mobile contract or Pay & Go. We review the phones on our stock list regularly and test new phones which are launched before deciding if they’re compatible with our products and services and whether we’d like to provide them to our customers. We’ve decided instead to promote other phones on our stock list which we believe will offer our customer a wide range of features and good value for money. I’m also not aware if or when other online retailers may offer the Nokia N9 in the UK. I understand it’s been largely reported in the press that Nokia don’t intend to sell this phone in a number of countries including the UK. If you’re able to obtain this phone from another provider, please be aware this may not work with an O2 SIM as our SIMs are only guaranteed to work with the makes and models of phones we provide to our customers.

For further details of the phones we currently offer, please visit your local O2 store or have a look at our website www.o2.co.uk and I hope we’ll be able to provide a phone that’s right for you. If you decide to take a new contract with us, you can do this in one of our stores, on our website or by calling our sales team on 08442 020 202 and we’d be happy to help.

Although we can’t provide the phone you’re looking for, I hope this is useful for you. For any further queries about this, please call me on 0845 330 0683. Alternatively if I’m not available, one of my colleagues would be happy to help and we’re open between 8am and 6.30pm Monday to Friday. .

Kind regards
