Orange Wednesdays - can you fwd to a friend?

Hi, last year my friends on Orange would send for a Orange 2for1 cinema ticket and forward the text to me (I'm on 3). I would just read the code out in the cinema and no problems getting 2 tickets for the price of 1.

Does anyone know if this is still possible or if Orange have clocked on that people are doing this?

thanks

    yes you can
    ive done it many times
    cinemas will either look at the text in which case if the phones got a big 3 on it they might say something but in my experience they dont
    usually they just ask for the code which you read out
    Yes Your Dukeiness :D
  • Yes you can - the staff just want the code read out to them, rather than have a mobile thrust in front of their eyes.

    As long as the code hasnt been used by anyone, you will be fine - after all the code has been paid for, and thats what counts!
  • Cool, yeah i've done it loads of times last year. thanks for the advice, the 3 logo is tiny so i'm lucky there :)

    thanks again for the replies.
