Thats disgusting, Easymobile charge less than that for roaming & theyre prepay. Are orange in some sort of finacial trouble or just being greedy? Cuz not only are they putting their prices up but theyre also getting rid of thousands of staff.

They want to increase profits, to do this they need to increase prices and cut staff!

Most of the problems with the mobile phone industry today is down to them paying far to much for 3G spectum a few years ago.

If OFCOM tells them to cut prices somewhere they will increase prices else where to offset any reduction in income.

The problem is that now the prices are going up and the service is going down those millions of people who would only stay with Orange could be off to other networks when it's time to upgrade.
