Orange Retention Offers

Tom_Saunders

I just got this phone for free.

£24.87 per month, 800 mins, u/l internet and u/l text.

Seems quite good to me, any thoughts ?

Wasnt happy with what orange offered via normal updrage route so I have gone direct to dial a phone via quidco and got HTC for free there

As stated above i have been paying £40-50/ mth and am way past my upgrade time so have been a little peeved that there wasnt a better offer on the table from them.

I had decided i really wanted an HTC hero and have been prepared to go wherever i can for the best deal. As it turns out, it is with Orange, but as a new customer so I will probably lose my number (unless I port to an un-used ASDA PAYG and then port to Orange, can i do this????_)

Anyway- works out, when you include cash back- 22.50 / mth, 24 mth contract, free phone, unltd texts , etc etc and £50 from quidco.

To be honest I have spent so much time on this now I was glad to just make a decision and stop agonising!!!!I reckon for my spend levels tis is a pretty good deal.

And are you happy with the Hero phone. I am going to Phones for you to look at it and have a play and hopefully sign up. Also going to look at the Blackberries and speak to Orange and see what they can give.

It is a head ache huh?

Ok, may I ask for advice aswell??

My gf is on Orange Contract, which is due for an upgrade on the 19th of September. Its a 400 Mins + 400 text for 24.95.

Firstly, she needs a new phone!! Doesnt need to be anything fancy, nice colour and a nice cam would be great. Ideally I would like to give her an option to check her emails, hence I-net should be included.

I was thinking of the Nokia 6700 (pretty solid phone from what I saw and read) and bc we both use Magic number, she never ever reaches the 400 mins and uses max 100 + 100 text.

Do you think they would do the same deal incl I-net plus the nokia?

Or does anyone have any other recommendation?

Thanks for your help.

I was offered a free Nokia phone (might have been that one), 200mins, unlimited texts, 80mb internet (not a lot) and a dongle for laptop, for £10/month (18 months I would imagine though).

Didn't go for it though, since I had already signed for O2.

I don't believe it! After weeks of ranting about how TMobile new customer sales could give me a better deal on an HTC Hero than Orange rententions........ they're merging!



AGHH! :rotfl:

I was offered 200 minutes, 300 texts, unlimited internet and a BlackBerry 8120 for just under £15 a month.

But I don't really want a new phone, and they refused to go any lower per month if I stuck with my "old" handset, so they obviously don't want my business that much. I unlocked my phone with a code from ebay and, as a low user, I'll probably go PAYG. But not with Orange.

If you are getting the hero for free and only paying £20/month then that is a stonkingly good deal.
