Amazing Orange SIM-only business tariff

I've just discovered an amazing SIM-only deal from Orange on a business tariff. Pay £7.50+VAT per month and get 325 texts, 125 texts, unlimited free Orange-to-Orange or landline calls, 750MB data and BT Openzone (which will hopefully be fixed). It seems ideal to use with an iPhone, >5 hours/month and 5 texts/day being plenty, particularly as texts to other iPhone users now go via iMessage. It could be a good idea to keep this tariff indefinitely and buy SIM-free unlocked phones at full price.

Are there any better SIM-only deals than this, either personal or business, on Orange or any other network?

    Doesn't it revert to £15+VAT after 31/12/11?

    "And we're now offering half price deals on a £15 or £20 plan until 31 December 2011."

    No, but I had wondered that too. It goes on to say further down the page "and you can now get a £15 or £20 plan on a 30-day or 12-month contract for half price if you sign up before 31 December 2011". It's clear that you only need to sign up by the end of the year. I've also checked this with Orange.

    Not very clear is it?

    If you're a heavy data user then GiffGaff gives you unlimited data (and unlimited texts) for only £1/month more. If you use more than 750MB on Orange the cost is £800/GB.
  • I just signed up to a sim only 12 month deal finishes today though
    300 mins unlimited texts, and 500mb of internet no extra charge for using blackberry £8 a month on orange normal price £15 a month
    I was paying £30 a month inc £5 a month for blackberry for 400 mins ,unlimited texts and internet so this deal will save me £22 a month
    Just did an upgrade so i think that will be going back
    I thought it was a good deal

    Orange extended this offer until 31st March 2012, and have extended it again until 30th April 2012 (although the web page hasn't yet been updated).

    Can anyone get this? Can I just say I'm a sole trader?

    750MB data doesn't seem a lot.
