    Hi - This thread is a discussion about Orange Wednesday's 2-for-1 for any film at any cinema, all day Wednesday. All you have to do is text film to 241 from an Orange phone and with the code you recieve, you show it at the ticket desk at the cinema.

    Hi

    I texted twice today and didn't get anything back, I mentioned it at the cinema and they said I was about the 20th person today at the till who hadn't got a message back. Still I didn't mind paying the extra to sit and look at Johnny Depp :)

    Why not just get your 241 txt then foward the txt to your son (he only has to read the code out at the cinema) and you get to keep your phone :D

    It hasn't worked for me either. I have tried twice now 6 hours ago. It is usually instant. Looks like we won't be going tonight. I wonder why it's worked for some but not others. I don't have orange phone i have orange broadband, maybe it's to do with that. I've now paid 70p for nothing! :mad: (tight I know):D
