HELP NEEDED - Orange PAYG Tariffs???

I need some help regarding Oranges new Tariffs, I was thinking about going on the DOLPHIN traiff were you spend £10 a month and get 300 free txts and FREE acess to Facebook, myspace extra.

Q1 Do I still have £10 calling credit left if I top up or does it cost £10 to get the 300 texts and have the free access.

Q2 Does the free access apply to any mobile internet sites or just Facebook, Bebo and Myspace.


Thanks

    Q1. You will still have the £10 calling credit left.

    Q2. I'm not sure about this one but I think it is just for Facebook etc,

    Hopefully someone else will answer who knows for sure.

    Orange have recently texted me that when you top up on Dolphin by £10 you now get 300 free texts and free internet access for the month - limited to 50MB - provided you keep at least £1 credit.

    If I look on the Orange page that comes up by default on my Orange phone it confirms this although I haven't noticed it yet on the main Orange website (accessed via my pc).

    If all you use in the month are 300 free texts then you will still have a balance of £10 to carry forward and use as you wish (internet access is expensive when you have to pay for it but subject to a max charge of £2 per day).

    Hope this helps.

    I have just ordered my Dolphin SIM card and didn't realise the internet stuff. to be honest never thought about it. so, I'll be topping up £20 a month what internet do I get with that? does it cost or is it completely free for the month?

    All I know is that a £10 top up on Dolphin PAYG will give you 50MB of free internet access for the month.

    I wouldn't think that £20 would give you huge amounts of internet access - at £20 per month spend wouldn't you be better on contract?
