well orange have an offer available online which is £30 for 600 anytime minutes and unlimited texts. i'm sure there are other great offers out there, i wasn't aware of the unlimited data. but there is no way i'd be paing £35 a month for 18 months AND be expected to pay that much for the handset. it's a rip off. so i wish the very best of luck to anyone who successfully unblocks their handsetReally?? your for got unlimited data too.... its not an amazing deal but it is very competitive.0 -

i did mention that it was online only :rolleyes:oh yea the dolphin 35.... the £30 is online only £35 normally and for data on that package - £1.50 per day ouch! plus a customer service which is the worst in the country... no thank you
i don't know who says it's the worst in the country but i've got nothing but good things to say about orange customer service
unlike O2 - who used to sneak random things onto my bill and charge me for texts that should have been free. fancy checking your 20 page phone bill line by line every month? no, i got bored of that too :rotfl:and getting them to do anything about it, well, that was like getting blood from a stone!
my point is that when you pay a lot per month for your tariff you should expect to get a decent phone free or for a very very small sum. £269 for an average (yes, it is average!) phone PLUS your choice of 3 expensive tariffs PLUS the fact that they're telling you what you can and can't do with your property = a rip off in my opinion0 -

wouldn't you just scan down the left of the bill and stop when you get to a tx that was charged for?

But its each to there own.. right? if you really wanted a iphone and was happy with the contract then you would go for it... if you dont.. like yourself.. then buy something different on orange... I dont see why you are complaining?? no one is forcing you to sign up you know
oh and by the way.. I haven't got an iphone and im not with Orange or O2

eh?? why should i even have to do that much? why couldn't they just get it right in the first place?

why? because you were a mug who got sucked into paying too much for a novelty gadget that you're now stuck with for 18months? :rolleyes:
