Orange PAYG Unlimited Calls to Landlines/Mobiles/International Numbers

I've decided to start a new thread about this as the above topic may get missed which is being discussed in another thread.

It has come to my and some other MSE attention that there is a way of getting unlimited calls if your on Orange PAYG.

Orange have a service known as an "Extra" on PAYG where by calling 450 you can choose to have unlimited calls at various times. One option is unlimited calls anytime to landlines/orange numbers the other two are unlimited in the evening and at the weekend.

See the link below:

Ok, now the good bit!! MSE's have reported being able to dial 0844 access numbers when buying this "Extra" at no charge ie: Orange is accepting 0844 numbers as a landline for some reason.

People have reported being able to call Pakistan using an 0844 access number when buying the weekend extra for £5 - This means they can call Pakistan for an unlimited amount of time so long as they dial the 0844 access number followed by the International Pakistan number when the 0844 numbers asks for the forwarding number.

So, if this works for International numbers then it will work for UK Mobiles as well as landlines by using a company like http://www.discountdial.co.uk access number 0844 566 35 35.

Dial this number and shortly afterwards you will be prompted to enter the number you wish to call followed by the # key.

Please remember and purchase your "Extra" though before dialing

*** Please be aware this has not been tested yet and if anyone can confirm that it works then please can they update the post ***

P.S - Sorry for the rambling, I hope you understand what i'm going on about

One other thing, please dont start calling Orange C/S and asking questions about this as if it is a mistake there more likely to rectify their error!!

You can buy the weekend unlimited Extras by calling 452 instead of 450. :j

What do you mean by this?

Massy has reported on another thread that the Unlimited Extra offers are still available.

"The offer is still available. You just need to call 452 instead of 450 and then 2,2,1,2,1"

Well dont ask CS. They wont admit that its still available. Just like they dont admit that 07744 calls are inclusive in any network minutes.

just try 452, and option 2,2,1,2,1

I did in the morning at about 10:30 am and it was working, Then I told this to many friends and everybody was able to do it.

matrix999 IS RIGHT! Please do not call Orange customer services and ask questions about this offer.

If you have any question please post it here first.

Thank you
