MSE News: Orange to raise monthly mobile costs

danjourno

If the government sorted out inflation, then Orange wouldn't have been able to put up the pricing.

Just had the text as well and I am not happy as I am only 12 months in to the contract.

My contract is 28 per month, but I have a friend/family discount applied. Will it affect the discount I get? Utterly cluecless about this

I reckon the increase will be applied to the tariff before discounts. I can't get at my paperwork at the moment but I think my tariff was actually £38 in full and reduced down to around £23 by all the various discounts for loyalty etc.

Its possible but I suspect extremely unlikley.

I have got 6 months left on my contract and really want to cancel, but cant seem to find a way of doing it without paying! I was hoping this price increase would let me cancel but it seems not...

Im in the same boat as you, only 4 months left though ... Orange are rubbish, I get an extremely poor signal in my house and I have been just waiting for the time when I can cancel, when I got the text this morning I thought I would have been able to cancel the contract due to increasing prices within contract period ... seems not :mad:

I recall O2 increasing their prices a year or two back and there was a massive thread on HUKD, lots of folk complaining and Im sure they were able to leave their contract, can anyone else recall this?

Orange customer service is attrocious and I for one cant wait to see the back of them, Giff Gaff here I come :beer:

So I took the contract out when I was working, and now I am struggling to afford it since being made redundant, is there nothing that can be done? I signed for £35 p/m not £36.50
