  • A question for you.

    I've got two numbers on the one account. Was told yesterday that they would send out a PAC code for one of the numbers but the other number wasn't valid for early cancellation, due to it not using 08 numbers and not going over the minutes. But after reviewing the bills I've noticed that that number has called 08 numbers so therefore should be valid for the cancellation.....

    So can I call back and say the request I put in yesterday should be valid for both numbers..... Hope this makes sense lol


    Sorry I can't answer account specific questions (I don't work in Customer Services) so it's best to ask them direct.

    Conor - when will this press release become available? Or will it be texted to everyone - as a link they have to pay to read?
  • Just for the record, after the way I was treated by Orange CSR, whenever the time arises for me to review my options regarding either up-grading my phone or moving to a new service provider
    I WILL DEFINATELY NEVER CONSIDER GOING BACK TO ORANGE

    I have a question for Orange Rep:

    With my latest Orange Bill there is a page which informs me that from Oct you will be charging £1.47 for each bill.

    However I have the option of receiving online bills free.

    Can you tell me does the online bill have the same apperance as the bill I get through the post?

    I ask as I need bills at certain points which I send off for Cashback Claims.

    Thanks.
    I am NOT a mortgage & insurance adviser - or anything to do with finance, that was put on by the new system I dont know why?!

    Agreed! And im sure many others feel the same! Terrible service, C.S Staff taking things too personally, ok, they were doing as they were told, but theres ways to go about doing it with respect and politely!

    No, the changes are not going ahead, therefore no-one will be affected.

    I am sure you are aware of the COMMUNICATIONS ACT 2003, which states'Any proposed Modifications that are not agreed to'

    We didnt agree with these modifications, yet we were given 30 Days Notice of the PROPOSED changes.

    Example
    Someone who got a text on the 3rd of August and was then told today they were not happening, HAD 10 Days to terminate their contract under the above ACT, BUT they were not allowed their right to exercise this.

    Dispite there being notes on their account stating they requested disconnection.

    I am sure you are aware this is a breach of the above ACT and therefore anyone who has notes on their account between the text and todays date are still LEGALLY entitled to cancel. THIS HAS BEEN LOOKED INTO AND I HAVE HAD THIS CONFIRMED.

    So please can you give us a Statement on this Point Please.

    Many Thanks
