    I followed Martin Lewis's advise about going through to disconnections and asking what is the best deal you can offer me. I told a few little porkies buy saying i was offered this on Vodafone etc can you match it or at least move a bit closer to it. Oh and no it was as an existing customer with Orange...i did actually get it half price for 6months also. Pretty good deal really
  • I renewed my contract and now get 550 cross network mins and unlimited texts for life but had to take out 18 month contract. Rang em on 11/09/06 and new tariff started 10/10/06 for £35 per month. I was paying £30 for 200 cross mins and £20 for 360 texts per month so have saved myself £15 plus as always used to go over the 200 mins anyway and bills were around the £55 to £70 mark.:T

    Do you have to top up regularly for that?

    Cheers.
  • Phoned disconnections today and was offered 550 mins to mobiles, 3000 to landlines and 200 texts for £35. To start of with they wanted £149 for K800i, but we kept telling them that was not good enough. The third person we were transferred to said the handset would be free too. Result.
