^Try Orange Unique, the Orange signal at home for me at back of my house ( no i have not a mansion- i wish LOL ) is non exisitant but full at the front ? Now all my calls are great coverage over the Livebox which becomes my own dedicated connection to Orange in my own house !


you get Broadband Unlimited for £5 and a Nokia 6301 for wifi-Unique calls FREE
calls to 30 countriesOrange and 010203 landlines over any wifi signal that the Broadband provider allows such use of for telephoney ( 90 % success for me )

Haggle a deal on 6301 ( they are dying to clear stocks, that goes in your favour ) £15 500/100 (and another) unlimited ?

when it arrrives call registration to activate new sim card ( after copying old sim card contacts etc to 6301), ask them to apply the FREE Unique bundles and set up your Broadband Unlimited ( 8MB, 40GB, calls to 100 International landlines/Orange/010203 UK numbers )

well spent on BB & Mobile & all UK landline calls with bonus of international landlines on both BB & mobile

" Unique Nokia 6301,500 minutes and 100 texts and A UNLIMITED bundle - fiveteen pounds

Broadband with all the bells, five

having a Orange signal at home - PRICELESS " sorry could not resist ! LOL


if you think you will get better care from Voda's 3rd party call centres THINK again, if your detriment go for 30 day Voda contract to test em out, they the dearest network & the most arrogant care I have ever had " yes Mr Diamonds you were mis-sold your contract but NO you cant leave penatly-free ! "...... I have never heard of an ommisson/unresolution like it from a UK network

I've talked to Vodafone before I signed up and they seemed OK. I've got a 100% cashback deal with Vodafone but am still able to cancel it, I wanted to avoid cashbacks and wanted the easy life so would have gone for a £10-15/month deal, but Orange were not very MSE for me :rolleyes: I've now transferred my orange contract number to Orange PAYG but will call them tomorrow and see if I can get the 6301 and go back with them, I quite like that phone with WiFi.

Damn it, just checked and the 6301 VoIP is crippled version which will only work with Orange, it does not have a SIP stack so isn't user configurable. Typical greedy mobile telco's....:mad:

forgot about that ! lol so you want open wifi....get a blackberry, the Unique ones are shown on the business shop ! you can order one from personal and still get the Unique bundles - i have a Pearl

great phones even when software goes you can 99% time resolve in 10 mins yourself - most stable mobile i have ever had !

Over phone

TBH I think if I haggled I could have got it down another £5 without too much difficulty. I was still within my original 18 months as well.

Think package is £40 for new customers or £35 if taken out online so really I saved £10 getting it for £25. And another £2.50 on the data bundle as its normally £5 minimum, so £12.50 in total compared to new customers.

One of main benefits to me is the free broadband for home.

On top of min spend I also have insurance /Orange Care at £5.

care is £6

Only for new customers, it was £5 when I took it out years ago and has remained at that price since

Could someone please let me know the procedure of getting the best deal on Orange when renewing your contract. I know with Vodafone, they have an Outbound Retentions team that call you after you have requested your PAC code.

How do Orange work? Is the best deal to be had after you have ordered your PAC code? Do they call you once you have ordered it? If someone could fill me in, I would appreciate it. Thank you.
