Do all orange pay monthly get magic number?

Hi all
As my daughter has just started Uni and has an Orange mobile, am thinking of replacing my PAYG Virgin sim with a pay monthly orange one. Main reason is to get the magic number so I can phone her up whenever without worrying about the cost.
Have searched the Orange site and can find no info about what plan actually qualifies for it. Have found out how it works (can add 1 new number every 6 months etc) but no where does it say how many months contract I need to take out or what the minimum payment is per month to receive it.
the Orange site does say
Can anyone advise please?
thanks

but doesn't appear to say which talk plans support them?You’ll receive an additional Magic Number every six months as long as you remain on a talkplan that supports Magic Numbers.
Can anyone advise please?
thanks
Martin Lewis is always giving us advice on how to force companies to do things.
How about giving us advice on how to remove ourselves from any part of MoneySupermarket.com

Anyone on a pay monthly contract lasting 18/24 months gets a magic number every 6 months.
I believe 12 month contracts do not get any magic numbers.
I believe PAYG gets just three.
Magic numbers can only be orange numbers. So if your daughter adds you, then she can ring you if you are on orange as a magic number.

There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies0
