orange 3p texts
Hi
I have a payg orange phone with free weekend texts which runs out end of Jan 2005. If I get a new orange sim for £4.99 to get 3p texts for six months is it as simple as replace the sim and register it then get 3p texts? I assume i'll have to change my number. Also will I get the other benefits for new connectors (i.e 30 free texts, orange world free for a month, etc.). |

But if you dont mind the hassle, port the number to another network, then when that done port it back to a new Orange SIM |

what im lookin 2 do is keep both sims. Is this possible (i.e. can i swap sims in the same phone). I want to do this because i still have free texting until end of january and also have talk saver (which gives me 60% off calls to my partners payg orange fone until august).
I dont mind havin to swap sims when wantin to call her. Is is possible to register two sims on the one phone? |

the chances are that i'll keep the 3p text sim in, and only swap it over two or three times in a month.
will orange register two sims on one phone? |
