contract phones on pay as you go?

[_sophie_]

really want the samsung pixon 12 but contract phones are no use for me. i need it on pay as you go! does anyone know when this phone will be out on payg? or anyone know of any other similar phones like this? and also, does anyone know any places/websites which do contract phones on pay as you go? is this possible! or could i do this: buy the samsung pixon 12 on ebay (one that someone has finished their contract with) and put in a pay as you go sim? would this work? thanks

A contract phone will work on PAYG, however some phones are locked to a particular network.
This is not usually the case with contract handsets but still worth checking before you buy.
