    In defence of Orange, the offer was not related to Orange it was an offer done independently by orange accessories. I have however submitted a complaint over it as it should have been handled in a much more professional manner.
    Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.

    Lets be clear here Orange (although when you click through their website to shop for accessories it doesn't reflect you are buying from another company) are a different company to Orange Accessories. Not that Orange Accessories is a company (it is a brand or trading name), its is 20:20 whatever they call themselves today Ltd that is the company you are buying off.

    Funny that. All intermingled but different.


    Heaven knows how Orange would feel with their name being dragged through the dirt.
    Their website is still a Caudwell Logistics company though.

    Well advised to complain to Orange.
    On their website they link directly to orangeaccessories from the home page of Orange
    Let Orange know how frustrated you all are over this

    i dropped a complaint into orange accessories and the reply back was we are out of stock your order is cancelled, completely ignoring all the questions I asked. After the 2 phone calls and now 2 emails, they state no customer agent has left any notes against the order, just goes to show another failure.

    anyone know the email ad to complain to. I want to send it to an adress where someone will actually read and respon - rather than an employee in a low position who will reply with an automated like response.

    My problem is not the fact that i didnt get my order as stock was limited - by why people who ordered hours after me got theirs.
    :confused:I say im a moneysaver, my family think im a cheapskate!

    Whatever they say will never make you happy, and all you will get is company drivel, so give it up, you and everyone else are going nowhere, it's a lovely day so smell the flowers

    I have had (not saying this is anything to do with Orange though) an email from Nokia Music saying thank you for your purchase of a download. Although the download was free actually someone has used my email addy to get it and registered with my email address. I have gone on the "forgtton password" bit and entered my email address and pressed "send" and it said the password would be reset and an email would be sent. I have not had any password email so maybe someone has got a reset password sent to their phone. Still makes you wonder!!!

    And yes, I have had emails from various places I have not had from before.

    I had the same email and I didn't order one of these. I don't even own a Nokia!
