Title: Orange mobile.
Post by: amigov6 on 24 March 2009, 20:30:27

Been with orange for years. Present contract nearly up. Did have dolphin 35 on a deal for £25 per month + vat. Last bill said i used 5 texts!!!! So i've now got 100 txts, 700 X network mobile mins & unlimited landline nos. for £17 per month & a free dongle for the lappy @ £10 per month, both inc. of vat.
    £27 per month all in, same as i was paying for the phone! :)

Not a bad deal that :) Whats the bandwidth limit on the dongle??

I just had my plan tweaked a bit...  200mins Xnet, unlimited texts, 250mb a month data, 30 photo messages, 60 mins vid calling, something else... all for £15 a month including the fatman levy :)

Been with them a few years myself!  Ofcourse, the only way to get the good stuff is to call them, otherwise the 'BestPlan' review does jib all!

That sounds a good deal, what monthly usage limit have you got on the internet dongle?

The dongle is unlimited surfing, ie here, ebay facebook & a few other bits. I don't download much, if i do i can do it on the desktop free or the lappy at home on the re router. Regarding tech questions about width etc, fuctifino sorry, just allows me to log on which was all i wanted. :)

becareful with the "unlimited" surfing.... i think orange do cap it at 256mb under their fair use policy....

A normal Orange mobile internet Dongle has a limit of 3gb per month.

Both of ours do anyway, paying £25 per month for a laptop with built in sim card slot which allows internet access up to the 3gb

Dont know what the limit is for a phone though tbh

Personally I love Orange, we have 3 mobiles, the laptop with the sim and a dongle and think they are by far the best network.
