Orange Texts - Send one get one free

Hi there!

Just got a text from Orange:

"Hi from Orange. Get a free text message every time you send one for 6 months, just reply YES by 13/02/08. T&Cs: orange.co.uk/nextfree"

I have just signed up for this - can't see how it can be a scam as there are terms and conditions on the official Orange website. Just wondered if there were any catches (as there dont seem to be any) and how do they police it - does your credit only go down every other text you send?

    Basically, no catch. you've just been lucky to be identified by the system for the promo. :)

    Yes, your credit goes down on the first but not the 2nd. When you reply, it should add this to your account but if it doesn't seem to have applied after 24hrs, give them a call and they should manually apply it for you if you explain the circumstances.


    And no, not a scam.
    On the up :D
