this may be handy for someone,
but i am at my wits end with my teenager being on phone all weekend, because she 'has to make the most of free calls mum'. she tops up with £5 which gives her unlimited orange-orange and orange-landline calls over the weekend.
she is the one who does the chatting, and i am the one who ends up witha headache.
i think its about £10 or something similar during the weekdays.
is this the answer to vodas 'stop the clock?'

Hello,
Never seen or heard this before.
Do you have anymore details?0 -
she just phones cs up on friday nights and requests this and they activate it for her.
i myself was quite surprised as well because i havent seen or heard aabout this or advertised anywhere.
dont know where she got it from and shes not likely to tell me , so i havent bothered asking her. tho will try when shes in a better mood , usually when she wants a favour doing.
will inform if i manage to get anything out of her!Nice to save.0 -
This is an Orange extra... and there are loads of them:

I think the 120 mins to any Orange phone or landline (valid for 7 days) is pretty good deal too.0 -
Very strange pricing structure whe you compare :
60 minutes of calls anytime to mobiles and landlines in the UK - £5 (8p per minute) valid for 7 days from time of purchase
versus
50 minutes of calls anytime to mobiles and landlines in the UK - £12 (24p per minute) valid for 1 calendar month from time of purchase
Am I missing something obvious ?
