Thanks to Orange. A highly recommended tariff! ... more
After 5 years of being on contract with O2 (Originally BT Genie), circumstances changed and as a mature university student I simply couldn't afford the bills - I had to find a way of saving money! This tariff is FANTASTIC for me. With 3000 off peak txts - 7pm to 12am - I can text until my heart's content, without fear of huge bills!

Advantages: Excellent signal coverage. Disadvantages: Change of off peak doesnt really help
After many years of using Orange i changed to Vodafone, this is because i bought another phone which was on that network.
I found orange a good network to use, the netwrok coverage was very good, even in the remote country side in wales (on top of a mountain and in a valley) i had a good signal strength.
The calls were quite expensive, but i dont make very many voice calls, so this wasnt too much of an issue to me.
The texts were more reaonable ... ...reduction for sending many at a time. Nor was there an opportunity to 'bulk buy' texts, which is one thing i could not do with out now.
The Vairable off peak hours sounds very attractive, but i didnt find it very use ul, the options they give you are not typical of a persons working day, and non of them seemed very applicable to my (or other i know) daily life. ...

Advantages: Value for money, good service, excellent cusomer service, very good offers Disadvantages: None
...else where.
A friend suggested Orange Pay as you go. I was a bit dubious as I always considered pay as you go to be on the pricey side. They explained various options available so I went for it. You can order a free SIM from the internet. Once registered you can open an online account where you can set up how you want your pay and go to work. For example mine is now set up so that if I top up £10 a month I get 300 free txts for that month. You also ... ...be an orange number, but you can call that number anytime of the day for 15p for an hour... bargain!! After 6 months you can add another magic number and again after another 6 months. On top of this when I registered for this service I got 300 free txts right away before I has even topped up. So now I have been paying £10 pounds a month. Can't grumble at that!! ...

Advantages: Great coverage; Good value for low users Disadvantages: Very expensive if you are a heavy mobile phone user
I have been with orange for nearly 2 years now, and i still think they are the best. They have the best coverage in the u.k. thats not my oppinion, thats a prooven fact. As for my oppinion on the coverage, theres only one place ive been which has no coverage, and only very raerly do i have low signal. The prices of orange vary. For low users (like me) it can be very cost effective but if you use the phone alot it can work out very expencive, especialy ... ...minite to other networks is steep for everyone.
Overall, orange is the best network if you use your phone mainly for texts or occasional phone calls. If however, you use your phone often, and to other networks, i would recomend tesco mobile, but i will allways be on orange. ...

Advantages: Very good cheap way to use a mobile phone Disadvantages: If you are a heavy phone user it could end up costing a fortune
Having been on Orange Pay As You Go for about five years I have few complaints. I'm a fairly light phone user, usually spending less than £10 a month. Since most pay monthly contracts would cost me far more than this, their offers of brand new phones and free minutes and texts aren't really tempting. The Text Saver package I have gives me 5 free texts a day for ever which means that sometimes I use up no credit for days. I very rarely need to make ...
