Orange Wednesdays 2-for-1 movies

millwalll

Hi all I understand if you orange customer you can get a free ticket when you buy one. If I get a pay and go sim card do I have to put money on it to use it ??

You need to send a text message to receive a code that you give to the ticket desk at the cinema.

text film to 241 and they send you the code

do I need to top up at all or is it just case of getting a orange sim card?

You call or text 'film' to 241 for free and the return text costs you 35p.

"To call or text 241 or 80241 is free. To receive a text ticket you'll be charged a rate of 35p per text."

So yes you do need credit on the sim. Have a look at the orange website for full details.

Hi millwall,

I've moved your thread over to the Mobile Phones board as it may be helpful to others wondering the same thing.

Hi Folks,
I left Orange for VF (I'm on contract) - but got a free sim to access orange wednesdays. I've registered it and was told there is a £1 credit and 100 texts for free. But..... I'm not getting ang reply when I text 'film' to 241 - apart from one this week that said 'sorry you missed last weeks film - text 'yes' to 2412' - and that didn't work either :mad:

So, I guess I'm going to have to put some credit on there - what's the smallest amount I can load and the easiest way - I've not done payg!

Thanks

£5 for a voucher from the newsagent/supermarket.

They have a unique number on them which you type in to your handset (via the top up number) and it is topped up immediately.
