Free evening internet browsing with "Orange PAYG Speak Easy"

I've spotted this on the Orange website:

http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/payasyougo
(click speak easy details)

http://www1.orange.co.uk/service_plans/payasyougo/speakeasy_costs.html
(costs on the plan)

It looks like a good deal, certainly a rival to tesco's value tarriff. 15p a minute to any network and free evening mobile internet. I'm currently on "choose your own off peak".

I'm very tempted by this, what do you think? :D

    I am very tempted as well, do you have to phone CS to change tariffs. I do not know what tariffs I am currently on but I do get 5 free txts a day. I am bit concerned they get cancelled why I change tariffs. Hope somebody can advise us. Thanks

    OK update the internet browsing is only for a month if you top up with £10 the month before :rolleyes: they don't make that very clear on the website :naughty:

    You will lose your 5 free texts a day if you change your tariff as I have checked in the past and don't want to lose my 5 free texts :eek:

    Also with any of the "offers" with Orange do check that it is a complete month ie 30 days and not limited by your download or whatever they call it!

    It was a deal from years ago called Orange Out There where for £15 you got five free texts a day for life. They then changed it to 5 free texts for a year and tried to change those people who had bought the "for life" version but had to re-instate it after a huge outcry :)

    Does anyone else think the 15p minimum call charge is a bit steep?

    For people using their PAYG mobile mostly for talking, wouldn't T-Mobile's Everyone tariff or Tesco Mobile's Value tariff be better value? Tesco's only have a 5p min call charge and T-Mobile have a 10p min call charge.
