MMS Messages on Orange

Hi,

I've tried searching but can't find the answer to this. Do Orange handle them in the same way that O2 do, i.e. they charge you 4 text messages for sending one or do they charge separately?

The reason I'm asking is that I'm thinking of moving from O2 and with them 100 text messages a month means 100 normal texts or 25 picture messages. Is it the same with Orange?

I might be wrong but I DON'T think they do....

(Not sure mind)

You on Prepay or Contract?

I'm on a o2 contract currently but looking at changing and getting 100 mins + 100 texts. Just trying to compare the 2 networks.

Picture MMS on Orange are charged as an "MMS" (or something similar) on the bills and cost 25p each on contract and 30p on pre pay. if its more than 50 kb you'll be charged 50p on both!!

Thanks...the text bundle doesn't seem too attractive then compared to O2's!

Just received this email from Orange which confirms it.

Thank you for your mail.

I can confirm that if you use photo messaging, you will be charged as follows:-

Standard media message (1 image between 0-49.99 kb) 25p for Pay Monthly, 30p for PAYG

Multiple media message (more than 1 image or single images greater than 50kb) 50p (both PM and PAYG

There are also photo bundles that you can purchase.

Photo Photos per Bundle Cost Price Per Message
15 15 £3 20p Photo 30 30 £6 20p Photo 60 60 £12 20p
I trust the above information is helpful.
