Sun/News of the World Free Orange sim problems

ruggs1234 · 23-04-2007, 21:04

Advertised offer over Sat/Sun is get a free Orange sim with 1000 free texts. You take the voucher to Orange store to collect yor free sim-card. Then register the sim with Orange for 1000 free texts.Thats where the fun begins....
Checking out the website www.orange.co.uk/sun100freesim call costs are 15p per minute to any uk mobile or landline. The information that came with the sim states 10p to Orange numbers, 25p to landlines and 35p to other mobile networks. The guy in the call centre said 20p a minute to any uk mobile or landline number. Who to believe? The poor call-centre guy is now trying to find out which is correct.
Oranges telephone system is, to say the least, hard work!
Im currently with Virgin...who have been fantastic on the few occasions ive needed to ring. On this evidence I wont be changing.

seems that the new tariff is going to be called speak easy 15p anynetwork anytime, although only mentioned on 3rd party promotions and not the orange website, terms and conditions are there, but no pricing information that I can see. Perhaps they are soft launching the speak easy tariff??
