Mo, before you go and buy a Telus phone off someone, go to a Telus store first.
Telus gives "$ points" towards the purchase of a new phone, based on how long you have had a contract with them, it's something like 50$/year towards a new phone.
Now, I know that the phone was given to you as a company plan, but the new cell phone deal works by the actual phone number of the cell, and they can track how long that number has been in service.
It might turn out that your company cell phone number has like 200$ in credit toward a new phone, which you can use to upgrade yours.
The reasons the cell company does this is to ensure that you don't have people on old technology phones, meaning they can make upgrades to their service etc.
Now, this might not entirely correct, but that was how it was explained to me from a few different Telus stores. Bring it in and ask... the worst thing they can do is say no.
