    As far as kids calling your mobi are concerned you could get a cheap geographical number from someone like www.flextel.com and point it at your mobi. 4p a minute. Then call them back.

    Plus if your a Virgin Media Landliine Customer, packages include some element of inclusive calls to Virgin Mobile .24/7 in some cases depending on bundle.

    I hadn't checked elsewhere, as we're both with Orange. This comes with handset, but as I understand, it's limited choice.

    ETA: they never asked me for proof on any occasion, and the phones in my name when we're Ltd

    1GB data? That's hardly a comparable deal!

    Get off your high horse and show more respect.
    I only check facts which look suspicious. I imagine that running a business website with maybe thousands of hits per day could well require such a huge amount of data.
    Actually, you have shot yourself in the foot (or maybe your horse) with your reply as you have misquoted the amount yourself. The volume they are offering is eight times the figure you quote.

    No its you who has shot yourself in the foot.As you questioned how 1GB could be better assuming without checking that the Orange Deal included 800 GB (which was an error on the part of the original poster,who clearly meant to say 800 MB ) .You didnt think this was suspicious and imagined that running a business website which had a lot of hits would require a huge amount of data. I cant see what bearing this has got to do with a mobile phone contract.OP would hardly run a site using mobile phone data.

    To cap it all you falsely accused me of misquoting the amount myself.When I clearly said 800 MB in my post.

    Have a peep here http://business.orange.co.uk/campaign/campaign-half-price it clearly states 800 MB data,and even goes on to offer extra cost bolt ons of 1 to 3 GB.
