    not just the free texts you also get free calls to other orange mobile from 7'30 pm -11.59 pm every night You have to mention this when registering though

    BTW why would anyone throw them away when you can sell them to non MSE users for a few quid :-)

    you can only text 241 for wednesday cinema offer if you have a contract - payg cannot take part. not sure which day you can text from earliest but i have done so on a monday and get text no problem for the wednesday.

    Sorry, but that is rubbish. There is no problem at all with using Orange Wednesday's from PAYG phones - I have done so for a long time.

    Also you can send the text as late as you like but it does a get bit jammed in the evenings which may mean that you do not receive the text in time for the showing you want to see.

    erm, did I actually post in this thread or did I imagine it ?

    From what I recall, it contained nothing controversial and absolutely no grounds for it to be deleted, therefore I can only conclude that it was either deleted by mistake........ or I'm going nuts !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can anyone (eg board guide) please explain :confused:

    How do you find out the phone number of your sim without opening it?
    Can I register my sim without opening it?

    Phone numbers are not allocated to Orange PAYG SIM's until after they are registered, so you won't know what your new number will be. There should be a SIM number printed somewhere on the pack (if I remember correctly) which will begin 894412 and which is 19 digits long. You can phone up and register the SIM with this number, but they will also want to know the IMEI number (the serial number in effect, obtained by typing *#06# on the phones keypad) that you want to register the SIM to. The Customer Service representative should tell you your new phone number at this point.

    You really want to have the SIM in a phone at this point, as Orange will send out a series of updates to the phone which will configure the SIM card. These messages will expire after two weeks, at which point you would probably have to phone customer services again to have them resent.

    Hope this information helps,
    Stephen

    Are the sims the same price in the orange shops as they are online?

    If you buy in shops they sometimes charge £3 to £10 for a sim.
    You could order online instead.

    If you time it right, you could get the sim FREE or for £1.
