Checking through some of my early opinions (in fact this was my first one), I was shocked to see just how bad they were. No research, plenty of churning, and no spell check through word! Anyhow I have updated this one to a better standard, at least it's gone through word!
Just Talk is a pre paid mobile phone package from the telephone network – ‘orange’. You may recall their adverts with the catch phrase “The futures bright the futures orange”?
Orange offers a range of packages for the non-pre-payment-schemes, and just one or two for them.
With Just Talk you can increase the amount of credit on your phone by either of the following way:
· A swipe ‘top up’ card. Simply take your swipe card to your local outlet and pay them the amount you want added to your phone, and bobs your uncle about ten minutes later the amount is credited to your balance. Amounts can be topped up from as little as £5. · [You need to register your top up swipe card. You can do this by dialling 450 or 07973 100 450. Listen to the options and “choose the option to link your Top-up Swipe Card with an Orange phone” Then enter the 19-digit number on your card, and the number of the phone you wish to link it with!] · Scratch ‘top up’ card. Buy a card from your local retailer (Newsagents, local shops, supermarkets and most other stores no offer a top up card). Scratch off the panel at the back, and that will reveal your lengthy (12 or 16 number I believe?) number. Type that number carefully in the phone (after dialling 450 and selecting the correct option). You increase will be instant. This type of increase is available from £10. · Credit cards. Simply dial 450 on the phone select the correct option, and follow instructions.
A number of phones are available for the just talk option, so there will be one to suit your needs.
Orange connects more phone calls than any other mobile phone operator, in the UK. Their service covers the whole of the UK and Northern Ireland. Although at some points the service is less clear and functional than others, though in my experience these are limited.
Having used both Vodafone and Orange, I can say of the two Orange is a far better service. The coverage is far better, the signal strength is greater, and the connection remains longer – more often. I am now on my second Orange phone, with which I am completely satisfied, and have suffered no problems (other than forgetting how to lock the keyboard, which is where the youth of today have their uses: and my daughter came to my aid!)
HOW MUCH DO CALL’S COST? ħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħ
The first 3 minutes of call’s each day cost you 25 pence per minute. Thereafter they cost just 5 pence per minute.
WHAT DO I GET? ħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħħ
On your new phone you will receive:
1. Answer phone (retrieval 10p) 2. Text messaging (10p per text) 3. Phone book 4. Orange Wap (if enabled and phone is acceptable to internet) 5. Call divert (if applicable)
There are more features with each new phone, which will be described in the your hand book.
