I've had an orange contract for 6yrs and got an upgrade on my phone in January this year. They say that it is on the understanding that i stay in the contract for 18 months, but i've already had calls asking if i want to upgrade! So i really havent a clue! HELP

Why don't you just ring up Orange and ask?!

The upgrade offers you are getting are probably from retailers with out of date information on your current contract status. |

To answer your question though - you will have to pay the outstanding balance left on your contract. And thats true across the board. |

After 10 years with reasonable service from Orange I cancelled by contract because I was offered a much better deal from another phone company... then the problems started.
It took SIX MONTHS to finally end the contract!. So, get ready for a one hour plus phone call each month to their Customer Service people. Roger... |

Very good point. I can't understand for the life of me why people think they will get accurate results quicker on a forum than if they checked the company's website.
To answer your question though - you will have to pay the outstanding balance left on your contract. And thats true across the board. I have noticed this with a broad range of questions asked on this and other forums! Perhaps people who post them think that there is a secret way of achieving the same goal as other punters do?! |

I think it's because people would rather hear bad news here (anonymously) than phone a company and be embarrassed when told 'NO'.
In other circumstances its just laziness, why bother finding the manual or thinking about the website when you can post here and wait for someone to do the job for you. I always try to help the former and find it hard not to call the latter 'numpty'. |
