To get it you must spend at least £30 a month line rental on an Orange Mobile.

There is no connection fee, but you still need to spend approx £11 a month for landline rental. There's a 2 gig a month cap for the service and your are tied into an 18 month contract.

The offer comes with a wireless router and Orange's E&W VoIP package. For an extra £6 a month, customers can sign up to the new Orange Anytime package which gives them free calls to UK landlines.

and for an extra £10 can get the broadband max which has a higher useage limit, 20gb i think

I was told that I could get the max option for free. But I think thats because my monthly spend is around £150

I wasn't impressed by this offer either but I phoned up and they've offered me their Max unlimited use package for £17.99 a month, with no new contract, so I can still leave when I like. This cuts my bill by £4 a month, so not too bad. They're very keen to keep customers at the moment so I'd recommend phoning up and haggling even if you're not about to leave Wanadoo / Orange! You need to be put through to their 'Customer Care' (read: disconnections) department.

Now to decide whether I want a new mobile contract...

Thanks for that; just got offered the same deal (plus a free month) which also includes their wirelsss router which allows you to get free UK landline calls and cheaper other calls using VOIP technology. Worth a try at least.

I'm very happy with this. :beer:
Was on £17.99 plan a month with wanadoo anyway and have been for ages.
Thought about switching of late though.
Been with orange for years and do have £30 contract. Rang up, sorted!!! very helpful and free broadband for life - as long as I'm with orange so I'm very happy as I'm £17.99 better off a month!

An extra £10!! Ouch

The site talks about a slight additional charge, I didn't think it would be as much as that. Thats made my mind up. I don't think I will take them up on this offer and perhaps it's time to look for something different.
