Orange Unleashes New "Unlimited" Data Tariff, & They Are Stopping Pay Extra Upgrades

Stand back people, I think a lot of you are going to get excited about this one.......

3Gb limit, (even though it's advertised as unlimited) for a bargin price of only £29.38 per month!
Orange Business Services | Business Everywhere tariffs


Orange CEO on his way to work yesterday......




Orange have also stopped customers being able to pay an upgrade fee to get a new phone. From now on, you will ONLY be allowed to upgrade in your final 3 months of your contract, and then these remaining months get added on to the new contract. So for example, 3 months to go on your contract, you upgrade, you then have 21 months of that contract to run. Nice!

Near 30 quid for 3 GB?

Such a bargain eh?

Up to them. With their never increasing network coverage, poor deals and rather draconian upgrade policies, Its a surefire no that or any of my family (I advise them all about phones and contracts) will be going with orange anytime soon.

Voda need to get their act together with data plans and 3G coverage to stop from falling behind imo.
