  • I made the mistake of registering with Phones4U to get a quote for an upgrade.
    Got a call from a very pushy salesperson who after I quoted some of the deals on here basically called you all liars!
    Offered me:
    HTC Wildfire with 200 mins
    3000 texts
    250mb data
    £26pm

    Told them to go and jump in a lake.
    My current deal with Orange is
    600 mins
    unlimited texts
    500mb date
    £20pm
    OK, I am one of the few people left with an HTC Hero but when I got it it was the best Android phone out there.
    Will be trying Orange direct in the next few days.

    As an aside; if you look at the HTC phone wiki page you will see that their naming convention seems to be based on condoms!

  • After much debate with Orange, i have managed the following - appreciate your view so I can cancel in the next 14 days if needed

    Orange Rio II phone (not the best I know, but it will do)
    200 mins
    Unlimited text
    Unlimited data
    15 photo messages
    24 month contract
    £8.00 per month inc VAT

    Plus, the big bonus for me is that I can retain my Orange Home Broadband unlimited for £5 per month.

    Not a bad deal I thought - it did take some getting to!!
  • That sounds pretty good due to the phone your getting.

    I have the same deal... Unlimited texts, 600 mins and i was told Unlimited data which they don't do anymore. Got offered SE Neo, SG Ace or the Motorola Atrix. Really want the SGS 2 though :(
  • I am going to try after the 6th. The iPhone 5 is released on the 4th and HTC gave a news conference on the 6th where it id rumoured that they will be announcing a new super phone. the SGII might be a bit easier to get hold of then.
  • Just phoned up as i was coming upon 3months before end of the contract, Spoke to a lovely woman had a laugh and a giggle also but in the end she offered me.

    Samsung Galaxy SII (Free)
    500Mins
    1.5GB Data
    Unlimited Text
    for 27.50p/m

    Had to take that on offer as i had seen some others in this thread close to this, but feel i got a cracking deal? Anyone elses thoughts? :)

    Etheco,If you look at my previous posts i have now left Orange and got three Samsung Galaxy S2 from Tesco for £25 per month 5000 texts 750 mins 500 mb data and the phone was £50.
    Orange called me time and time again and the deal u got would have been ok for all three contracts but they would not move from £30 per month for 500 mins 1000 texts and 500 md data
    They have lost a customer of 9 years

    what were you on previously?

    I'm about to phone up as I've just found that I'm out of contract and have already notched up £40 of data which is interesting seeing as there should be a daily cap according to their own website.
