    Hi All
    Managed to get OH Pac code and he has just bought a new phone.
    I am a little worried about his final bill from Orange.
    Reading through this site I thought he should have a credit to cover the remainder of his Orange contract. I have just phoned Orange billing and the guy I spoke with checked with the retention team and he said that is all sorted now.
    I have just checked his bill online and this is what is now showing

    ***As you are still in contract you are not eligible for an upgrade yet.
    You will be eligible for a free upgrade after : 25 Apr 2011
    However if you’d like to upgrade before, you will be able to do so from 14 Jun 2009 and any days left on your contract will be added to the length of your new contract.****
    Previously it said "if you’d like to upgrade before, you will be able to do so from 14 Jan 2011"(now changed to 14th June 2009)
    Could anyone advise me from reading this do you think this means he will not be hit with a massive final bill? Any advice please?? Many thanks

    Thats true "orange" have u-turned on this as suggested after talks with Ofcom.

    I have also heard that Orange PLC may discipline some orange retail staff for advising customers to cancel and then sign a new contract.

    Maybe they should discipline some of their staff for being complete bar stewards with bad attitudes to their customers.
