Will Orange Match O2's PAYG 300 Texts Offer

pje1979 · 26-11-2004, 20:15

I am currently on Orange Talktime 200 and am thinking of moving to pay as you go as I am not using the talk time on my Orange contract anymore. I was thinking of going on O2's online pay as you go tarriff that gives you 300 texts a month for free as long as you top up £10 a month. Do you think Orange will match the deal if I phone up for my PAC, they have matched other network's contract deals for me in the past but this is a pay as you go tarriff, what do you think?

Orange will match any Contract tarrif available on the high street on O2, T Mobile or Vodafone. I don't think this fits their criteria as it's really pay as you go

NO, not on pay as you go, otherwise we would all be doing it.

Looks like I'll have to port over to O2 then.

I don't understand this offer. Its OK if your already with Orange, but what makes them think you'd choose them over another network if they are offering you the same deal.

I'd just stick with the network who offered me the best contract in the first place. Of course they won't match the cheapest networks offers, 3.

I suppose people might choose Orange over another network if the coverage is better in thier area.
