Orange recently unbundled is notoriously unreliable.

I had an issue with o2 when I initially joined and they sent me a new router - been all well and good since then

And their call centres (Glasgow and Leeds) are 24/7 with a freephone number - which is great if you need them to talk you through things

Yes, O2 sent me 3 routers in total. I found their call centres ok - but getting past first line support was very difficult. I probably spent over 15 hours over the course of 2 weeks on the phone to them before I asked for a MAC. They mucked that up too.

Sorry to hear that.

I have found them to be great but it is all about personal experiences and if they had been as poor to me as they were to you then I would have the exact same thing

AOL for about 10 years and never a problem. Just moved address and now pay 6.99 for 8Meg!

thats because most are LLU Wholesale on Wireless & Cable who do Pipex, Tiscali ,Orange etc....are loading the C&W networks capacity

you'd think C&W wholesale roaming agreement with Orange UK ( C&W business customers use standard 2G/3G handsets with C&W-branded SIM cards for voice/data ) carry customers’ mobile traffic when out of range of the site cell or office picocell base stations that W&C would ensure their contract for LLU broadband would get priority for Orange

Actually its nothing to do with C&W. All down to BT....

Going slightly OT here, but I've been with AOL for years and I pay £17.99 per month. How are people in here getting it cheaper ?
