SWITCHING FROM ORANGE MOBILE... ANY ADVICE?

Am fed up with Orange - have been with them for years but am paying too much and service has been rubbish recently. Any suggestions of who to switch to? Want a pay monthly contract - minimum 400 minutes to anywhere and about 100 or so texts.

I've just switched from Orange to O2 as they're doing a spanking online deal with texts at the moment... the Online 50 package gives you either 50mins talktime + 500 text messages for £19 or 100 minutes and 25 text messages (depending on which your particular vice is - talking or texting, I suppose).

The only thing to check is what their coverage is like near you. It's pretty good across the UK but I find that either my new mobile (non-Nokia so maybe a poorer arial) doesn't get a great reception inside the house compared to my nokia on orange.

Just reread your requirements...

you can go for Online 200 which gives you 200mins + 500txts or 300mins + 50txts for £30

Online 400 which gives you 400mins + 1000txts or 600mins + 50txts for £45

There's bolt ons as well which may be worth investigating for alternative pricing...

Thank you - anyone out there with an O2 mobile - what's the coverage and customer service like?
