free orange sim/registering probs

why will it still not work for me????? "problem loading page" on firefox

As far as I can tell from looking at forums on other sites as well, it seems to be a network problem, not browser.

I can't seem to get it to load either (am with Virgin Media ISP - formally blueyonder)

If anyone would be kind enough to register for me as I can't, would be much appreciated.

Im also with virginmedia, maybe thats the prob.

I can get on the orange website and register there, but will it be the same? will i still get the £5.00 credit and does it matter which animal package i choose?

read this post on another thread of diff website discussing the same problem.

Bizarre this one! - Its definitely a Network issue. I had all the same error messages from my home PC (Blueyonder broadband) and work PC (Govt. network) . At home, I tried Firefox, IE & Chrome - same problem every time.

So I tried it on my ASUS connected to a Vodafone PAYG mobile broadband dongle - and connected first time.

The problem then was, a persistent pop-up box asked me go through the initial 'put SIM in the phone and wait for messages' rigmarole - but I'd already completed that as per the instructions which came with the SIM card.

So I eventually escaped out of that and completed the underlying registration form; quoting the phone number and code I'd received by text message. Everything seemed to be OK - then it generated an error code and told me to phone Orange (which I don't know if I can be bothered to even try).

don't know if that helps anyone.

Was just reading the notice below the 'peel here' from the packaging that the simcard came in.

It states:

Step 1
New customers, register your new SIM Card with Orange by calling 450 from your handset or 07973 100 450 from any other phone.

Step 2
Once registered, visit www simregister co uk or call 0845 880 1234. Remember to have your new SIM and mobile number ready.

your £5 credit will be added to your SIM and you're ready to go

so if you don't mind ringing an 0845 number, guess could do it that way instead.

Is anybody on here who can access simregister, able to register on behalf of us who cant?
