Orange Credit Cap ?

Is it possible to set a credit limit on an Orange contract? I've searched the internet for an answer to this question but I cannot find anything recent.

I'm a little bit worried than when we go on holiday abroad in a few weeks that my son may forget himself and we end up with a massive bill.

Thanks.

Brian

    Orange don't do caps.

    We are going off to France all being well. My wife and I are with giffgaff and my son is on an Orange mins/text/data contract.

    The default data cap is €50 for data roaming in EU, but you can easily just switch the data and the data roaming off.
    Calls and texts are less expensive and are easier to keep under control. However, you can get a PAYG Orange sim for the holiday or, if the phone isn't locked, some other network sim(s), e.g. Toggle Mobile.

    Grumblers correct, however if you have set up any bundle it may overrides the cap. Best check before you go..
