Thoroughly agree BB, Orange Customer Services rubbish.
My sim only contract ended in December, I renewed it, pointing out that they had overcharged me £5 pm for the past year. They agreed to credit me with £60 and start a new contract. They then issued a new sim, then another. Several lengthy frustrating conversations later, after using the new sim cards as instructed I had to put in my old sim.
Each time I lost Service for a few days and when I went on holiday I had no service in Spain for a week, despite advising them beforehand. I checked my Account and found that I was being charged for two numbers, despite only ever having one. Then I found that my Bank Account had a £13 deduction, despite my Account being well in credit.
3 further calls to Orange CS and they couldn't work it out, each time promising to sort it out and call me back - they did neither. The last call was particularly lengthy and frustrating, they claimed to have no record of the Bank deduction and would not believe me. They told me to go to an Orange (now EE) store to prove it. A 35 mile round trip.
The EE store couldn't understand why I had been sent to them but said that they often do that to fob people off. Apparently the Stores only 'sell' and Orange are supposed to do the back-up. However I finally got the Manager of the Store and we contacted Orange CS (Stores have no direct line and have to wait in queues like we do!)
The Store Manager could see what was wrong but we had a really difficult job to get CS to understand, she was getting really frustrated too and it took 75 minutes on the phone to sort out. No offers of compensation or apologies, it was as if they were blaming me for their errors and eventually agreeing just to get rid of me. (I had previously threatened to leave and even been given a PUK code with no effort to keep my Account).
We then had to contact T Mobile, who I have never had any dealings with, as the £13 had been deducted by them. Apparently I had been ported over to them for two days unbeknown to me and had to get them to agree to refund the amount and cancel the agreement - that I had never made.


Sorry for the rant but I think Orange have by far the worst Customer Service I have ever known. Unfortunately they have the best (sometimes only) reception out here in the sticks.


Cheers,

Thats much worse, but its like once they have your direct debit they have licence to print money. We been with them around four years,first contract and then payg.

Their Facebook page is full of stories of rude carp service. My hubby actually uses that phone not me. Mine is 02. Going to get his unlocked and get a new sim.

Sobs I will tell anyone now who is getting new phone not to go with them. And damn I'm a chatty chick !!

Really needed dry weekend and so it was! My car is leaking from somewhere and the back seat has been soaked through all week, so its had the boot emptied, carpets removed, and sitting in the drive with all doors open. Still not dry enough to sit on, but at least the seat is no longer dripping wet. Think its seal round the back lights from research on web....

Bird table in the backgarden has been a hive of activity. Wagtails for the first time, and a solitary coaltit. Now seem to have 7 bluetits regularly visiting all at the same time. Also a greater spotted woodpecker briefly had a look. But OH seems to spend more on food for the birds than I do for all of us...:rotfl:

Burgers worked. Visited a pet shop for cat food, but it was shut :rotfl:

what make/model car do you have and do you have a sunroof? I solved this prob in my car by doing two things.

1. Locate drains in sunroof- take a piece of curtain wire....about two metres and stick it all the way down the drain(there are usually two drains in each sunroof. After clearing pour water down and see if it runs out

2. behind the back wheels there is a cover- release it (theres a wee screw generally) and clear up all mud build up behind this. On my car there was loads of mud and you do not see it - need a rubber glove and plastic bag.

All worth a try.

3. Clear and drains in around boot using curtain wire.

We used to get puddles in our foot wells . The drains blocked in the sunroof , my husband threaded a very thin rod down it and that cleared it.

there could also be a leak occurring thru the aerial mount if you have one. This would require you to get access to the area(tricky) for to inspect it.

I have a childish sense of humour at times I know.

But this new Haribo advert did make me giggle.
