    Apparently there are issues with slow update on the call balance at the moment. Can you see that actual call?

    It is very unlikely that Orange would re-introduce charging for these numbers without a pre-call warning, having upset people before.
  • Hi Redux

    No i cant see the actual call , I will be able to see full thing at the end of month.

    But I did 07744 call on 10th feb and on my online statement it says the minutes are updated on 15 feb 2006 at 14.47. I can see 209 minutes available on my account , but i have already made call of 60 minutes and cant see any update about it. Same with my wife's account she also used 07744 but her minutes are also not gone down.

    It seems they have started charging , is there any way i can find it?

    I think you'll find it's delays in the update of the info, which people are discussing on a couple of other threads
  • COULD BE YOUR PLAN AS MY CALLS PEAK ARE STILL FREE WITH ORANGE X-NET!!
  • I sure hope they haven't suddenly started charging again, even if it is only in peak hours

    i've made a fair few 0870/0845/0800 calls this month using the sf divert

    :naughty:
  • my bills does NOT show any calls charged!!

    methinks webkami is a mischief maker!

    Sorry about the confusion. It was just my bill.

    Everything is same with orange.

    Hope it remains same.
