Why is one of my phone shows orange network?

On phone 1 it says orange network, there is a G in a box symbol and a triangle next to it. Phone 2 just has a G in a box. It is on…

Taking a mobile company to court
Hello All, I won't go into to details of the claim, but I am wanting to take a mobile operator to the small claims court over a breach in the T&Cs which they will not admit although very obvious.

Hi, I was with 3mobile a long time ago and have only just (oops) realized that I am still paying the contact. Now what happened was the phone broke and I had no insurance so they offered me a replacement if I extended my contract by 6 months. Which would bring the contract end date to August 2010.
