I bought a cheap yet unlocked mobile where I had to top up with Orange. Everything was fine for the first 5/6 months, as in the phone worked as I would expect for a cheap phone, andthe Orange costs were as they stated they would be, which was like the ave mobile price. Overnight, the prices went from the ave to 65p for a 1 minute local call to a landline, then I realised that all of the calls had gone up extortionatley. I queeried this after a week and the call charges were put back to normal prices. Three days after that they went straight back up again, disgraceful greed and dishonestly. I kept the phone as a spare, but when I went to put in an 02 sim tonight, the phone is locked again. The Company should be Withdrawn and fined!.

I didn't get a bill from orange last month, it just didn't arrive, then the direct debit was higher than normal, so i assumed I'd gone over my allowance! I got a bill this month and they have added a new service at 4.26 before tax, to my bill. A service I have not requested, or been contacted about! Is this legal? can they do this? Add 33% extra to my bill without advising me of this? Have sent an email to customer services, as I don't have any signal at home - living in north wales!!! any advice on how to get the fact that they can change your bill without warning out to the public?

they have now agreed to put a credit on next months bill- sending a copy email to watchdog and office of fair trading, as well as contacting ofcom may have helped....

They make it very hard for you to cancell any broadband service, placing a variety of obstacles in your way to trip you up and constantly saying 'it's in our terms and conditions'. Stay well clear of Orange for broadband

I had upgraded from Ornage PAYG to Contract and very happy with the mobile and accout... However I had an offer for homephone and broadband for £15 per month a lot less than the £50 I was paying to BT. I moved house about 6months ago and brought my livebox and orange account with me... Their Customer Service is from Hell... They make excuses I continually get through to an Indian Call Center who refuse to put me through to the Escallations Department. I have had either the phone or the broadband working but never both. When that was fixed my speed droped from 6.7 meg to 0.5 meg... I have been told thats all my line can take but I keep explaing that I used to have 6.7meg... I have been told that it is BT Openreachs proplem and that I need a speed modulator replaced at the exchnage something that BT Openreach has never heard of... It has now been 3 weeks since I reported the less than dial-up on my broadband and still waiting for a statifactory responce.

Plebble AdviceCentre Response:

I would start thinking about ratcheting things up and making a formal complaint in writing. Take a look at this for more info:

http://www.plebble.com/advice-centre/how-to-complain-about-your-broadband-provider/3.php

Under Ofcom's new code of practice, Orange has to do certain things if you are not getting the speed you expected/are paying for. Have a look at this for more info:

Hope this helps - good luck!

I have a mobile locked to them - I bought it for the handset. Legally I have to have it three months before they will supply the unlock code. I complied with this and one month later am still fighting for the code. It is a legal requirement that they supply this, but they keep making excuses as to why it has not arrived! |I have to wait 10 days each time. I have now complained to CICAS who regulate these things - I don't know if they are going to be any better.

Absolutely disgusting customer service, do not want to keep customers when there is a problem, would not recommend to anyone for mobile, home telephone or broadband, are not interested in your complaint or problem. We recently had mobile, broadband and home telephone with orange and were sold a package that included free mobile phone calls to orange mobiles, but did not say that you had to contact your phone line to the white box, we have since June paid £110 on avervage on home phone calls, and only now have I found out about the white box connection, no feedback from customer services, no acceptance on fault on their behalf, throughly fed up

Well I do hope that both Orange and Blue Cow are proud of themselves having held me to a contract for 2 years which I never agreed - after trying for 18 moths to get out of it it has now run its course - customer services appalling - no call backs - emails ignored - promises not fulfilled
