Im on Anyone 300. £42.50 a month plus £6.00 for 100 text messages thus my bill is never more than £50. Im very pleased with this and if I do use all my free mins its still nly 20p a min to other networks compared with 50p on Vodafone with their equivelelnt tariff.

What logo the phone displays on the screen, to a large extent, is to do with the phone as much as the network. Basically a part of the phone's software can be set to show a name on the screen as controlled by the SIM, or not. If this setting is enabled, the name can be changed remotely by updating the SIM Card. If not, SIM Updates (as Orange call them) will have no effect whatsoever unless CPHS (part of the phone's software that I just mentioned) is enabled,
As for the new One2One tariffs (sorry, but I refuse to go along with the new name since the underlying network and product has not changed one bit), the Orange stance on promotional tariffs has changed a LOT recently. Rem,ember the Everyone 100 tariff was, strictly speaking, promotional - yet it's available on OVP. In recent months, common sense has increasingly begun to prevail over bureacracy at O, and OVP should replicate all the new BTC & 121 tariffs in the next week or so. They need to sort out major technical problems with their billing platform first, but once that's done... |

Mine just updated (Nokia 3330):
Got a text message which was garbled. When I exited and returned to the menu, there was no operator logo. About 15 seconds later the phone rebooted, and when it returned I got "T-Mobile UK" |

Hmm, that's strange. Maybe it's the different generation SIMs? I know Orange has a few different versions. Mine was the first generation SIM.
If you look at this pic closely: http://www.one2one.co.uk/images/home/img_8310.jpg it says T-Mobile UK too...

My Nokia 6210 got updated this afternoon. Received a text that said "pers" blah blah blah "please delete".
Rebooted the phone and there it was, one2one..... NO I mean T-Mobile. The one2one, I mean T-mobile coverage is pretty crap but the freetime tariff (50 hours of evening and weekend calls) is good for me. |

Since Virgin Mobile is a 50:50 venture between One2One (Now T-Mobile) and Virgin, it may effect you, i do not know how, but they do own half the service, and the network, i am sure if it were to effect you , it would only be in a positive way, after all, "T-Mobile Get More"

I've just got a new BTCellnet mobile and the screen now says O2-UK. Anyone think that Cellnet will be doing the same thing as one2one and changing everyones screen to O2

So, I take it that all of the 121 mobiles will be updated, but all of the other networks will still list 121 if you do a network search.

In Ireland, Eircell recently (well, in February) changed to Vodafone. On most peoples mobile it is still Eircell. If you own a Nokia however, you can send a text message ("LOGO") to a specific number (its on vodafone.ie) and the name changes to "IRL Vodafone"). Incidently the network names do appear to be able to changed over air however. When Meteor (the Irish third operater) started, doing a network search (on an Eircell mobile). made it appear as "IRL-03". Now it appears as "METEOR".
BTW is BT Cellnet now O2? Digifone in Ireland isn't changing to 02 until next week (And that will be really confusion, most people call it 086, its STD code). I thought they would all do it the same day like T-Mobile's recent change in the UK, Austria, and the Czech Republic. |

my T68 still sez one 2 one as well. Maybe they change it on how long a person has been with the service, cos I only joined a month ago.

Just tried it on my PYG and PM phones, both the same. it's now 150.
![]() Guess that makes sense.. in line with most UK landlines (most). I think it should have been 151 thought

My old ericsson pf768 changed about a week ago and now says T-Shite, I never received a text but I did get a leaflet through the post explaining the "benefits" one of which was a "fresh and exciting new look" personally I thought it looked crap and wondered how I was to benefit from this. Apart from a new tariff nothing else seems to have changed, oh... and the one2one girl (sorry T-Shite) says good evening or good morning according to the time I phone to top-up.
On a different note has anyone got a Sony J70 handset? I am thinking of buying one and would be interested to hear from a users point of view on how good or bad it is as the reviews I've read are a mixed bag and most places just tell you a products good points only so they get the sale. Thanks in advance for any help on that score. |

I know it would proberlly do nothing, but i see a lot of other people here do not like the name T-Mobile, do what i do, put a "complaint" in when you phone the customer advisor, they make a note of it, 1 or 2 people would do nothing, but if they had enough people complaining, and it would have to be a lot, but its worth a go, they may change it back. It worked with the post office, nobody liked there new name, and guess what its going back too?
There was no need for the name change, just a simple T-Mobile in the courner would have been ok, just so people know who owns them. |

It goes a lot deeper than being just a name change. Its all about positioning itself in a market that is dominated by hugely well known brands. Take Orange for example, its a brand that's known worldwide, with one overall look and feel.
Having both T-Mobile and One 2 One brands has its problems cos in one country people maybe familiar with the T-Mobile brand while in another, the One2 One brand. By amalgamating the two into the more well known brand (T-Mobile) it becomes easier to market, advertise, maintain etc. Its a lot easier to discontinue the One2One brand (which is UK based) than to discontinue the T-Mobile brand (which is pan-european). And so amount of complaining is likely to reverse the decision. (apologies for the excessive use of the word brand!!) |
