Nokia N95 8gig £49.99

All for a mere £20 a month which includes £20 a month discount so basically its half price entire contract, im a happy chappy

Was given option to have N96 but phone would cost £97.50 and £10 discount each month on 12 month contract which would have cost £30 a month which I rejected

Did they have the phone in stock
I was promised one over a week ago
Pay £175 for the phone but get £200 cashback
£15PM for data, 300 mins and 100 texts

I just upgraded my phone and plan with Orange.

I was on Dolphin 25 for 18 months.

I saw an online offer for Dolphin 35 18 month @ £24.46 with a free LG KC910 (which is the phone I really want!)

Phoned upgrades who were very short with me and told me I couldn't have that offer and that I'd have to pay £195 for the phone!! I was like "...oh..." and she didn't say anything for a very long time then said "well if you want to cancel then I'll put you through" I didn't say anything about cancelling!

I got put through to a lovely bloke who gave me the online offer straight away and the phone will be with me on Friday! I wish I'd have bargained with him a bit more but I lost my nerve haha

Can you barter with Orange Broadband deals as an add on when calling about your phone? I see some people have been offered deals on that...

Would you be able to barter down the price of say their Home Max deal?

Thanks

Well, I just agreed to renew my contract (with 3 months still to go)

I got HTC touch HD (incl 8Gb card) for £29.

500 texts, 1200 mins, unlimited Data 18 months
for £27/ month......to me, that's a result!

Basically, after getting yesterday's offer, I asked them to record it.
When I called back today, that was the starting point for negotiation and I told them that 02 were offering a similar package, but for the Omnia. Orange dont do the Omnia anymore.

So basically the bloke in retentions dropped nearly a tenner off the monthly tariff, and I bit his arm off.

Another happy Orange customer!:beer:

These Touch HD retention deals look amazing. Any chance a new customer could negotiate one of these too?

Sorry folks this is probably a daft question.
My son has an orange contract phone that he got form the Orange high street shop. When he come to the end of contract and wants a better deal does he go back to the shop or ring retentions?

Thank you and happy new year all. :beer:

Apologies if this is a daft question, but what difference does it make if you took your contract out indirectly - i.e for me it was with Phones4u? Do you still approach Orange for the retentions deal or do you deal with Phones4u?

I still have a while to wait (summer) but I want to know in advance. Also, what period before your contract is up is the best to try and get a retention deal?
