Orange refuse upgrade to talk plan :(

Today i tried to follow the guidelines on this website for getting more minutes and texts per month for less money..........& Orange refused - I'm absolutely gutted. Thought they would like to keep my business after quite a few years with them?????

    It’s all based on the figures these days, if your spend is above a certain amount there’s a sliding scale on what they’ll offer against what they get from you. If you drop below the magic figure they’ll just give you your pac code and say bye bye…
  • My husband has had incredible luck every year upgrading/changing tariffs with Orange, but perhaps it IS based on the numbers. Can you try again or do you feel that's a futile effort?

    It’s a waste of time, the number won’t have changed and the op’s don’t have any autonomy (retentions have a very slightly different system but not by much) and with almost all calls being recorded and op’s being reprimanded for not following the ‘guide lines’ you won’t get anywhere…
  • No I won't go back with them......They can whistle dixie........

    I'll spend my pennies with another company
