Simplyphone question? (on orange)
Hi all, I am on Orange Premier 900, and am trying to use the service to call Pakistan, have tried from 10:30am today and several times before in the afternoon from 12-4 but simply get a beep beep beep or lines busy.
Have tried all the access numbers, but yet my Dad seems to get straight through on O2....
Anyone else having probs?
Thanks in advance.

Simplyfone is generally very busy especially between 11am to 6 pm i have found as this is when most users tend to want to use it.
unfortunately you just have to try outside these hours on Orange or keep trying.
I would suggest NOT contacting orange re this issue as this is the type of thing exactly mirrors last years problems when as a result of people emailing them/phoning them re simplyfone that they barred this number from inclusive minutes and we all seemed to get very large bills for the calls.Mark Hughes' blue and white army0 -
I also had got the busy message for simply from my orange fone. I then used Yourcallworld 07744****** and it worked straight away. I am hoping yourcallworld is also included in mins.
***Board Guide note I have removed the number given but this is the website mentioned http://www.yourcallworld.com/ ***

I will try tomorrow very early then. It used to be ok before, but now very very non responsive.
I will not contact Orange, as stated by someone earlier, just incase they start charging for the minutes.
Just tried the other 07744 number recommended by Raj and that was the same also did not go through.
Thanks all.0 -
The problem is congestion on the Orange Network between about 1pm to 7pm. Its nothing to do with respective suppliers of 07744. Orange are supposed to be looking into it but perhaps it suits them not to.
