    Good news... though I have my doubts.

    Calling the number doesn't have the Orange premium rate warning message - although I can't remember if it did have before. Or maybe they removed the warning but are still charging high rates?

    I see this on their site:
    ** Now works from ORANGE mobiles again!! **
    *Calls made by mobile phone contract users will utilise inclusive cross network minutes. When all inclusive minutes have been used, calls will be charged at regular cross network call rates (subject to individual mobile phone provider - providers 3 and Vodaphone will charge for these calls). Some countries are excluded from this service. ** We have recently received feedback that some T-Mobile users (U-Fix plans) may be charged for these calls. There is no adverse feedback from O2 users. UPDATE - Orange x-network plans again support this service!
  • Thanks for that i still get the old info when i access it.

    If it works on Orange Payg,and i cant see why it want.You can use it to avoid the x network charge.

    That would require the access number to be a non x-net mob number, right? Which it doesn't appear to be, though I could be wrong :)

    hehe ;)

    I've rung the access number for 30 secs, I won't make any inclusive calls for a while and I'll check my inclusive mins/secs later on to see if it's been taken out of that.

    I used the number on orange andcalled CS after 20 minutes. Asked them to check if the number was in inclusive minutes and he said yes since the system did not treat it as a charged call

    great news for orange customers... wish three would accept it also
