So whats the deal with the dolphin 35 tarrif then? It say unlimited data, so whats that capped to?, and when you go through the process it doesnt actually say anything about it.
Hmm, I think i shall wait till next week for the TMob version and upgrade if its not more than £40, otherwise it looks like im back to orange (so long as the data bundle is good). This post has been edited by Leaskovski: Jul 9 2008, 16:38 |

I think unlimited data means 200mb like 02. On TMob it's 1GB.

Unlimited has a fair use of 500mb per month
Orange state in terms and conditions, constant abuse of this bundle may result in the bundle been removed from the account |

Now, if someone can get one of these, dump the ROM, and get it to me, I may be one step closer to customising TF3D!

I'm hoping for a call tomorrow and that they won't charge £100 to get it (Had Dolphin 35 for 18 months and then £15 sim only for the last 2)

You wont get a call tomorrow from Orange - as they arent getting it til Monday. Only some stores and the website have it for now.
I just spoke to retentions and was extremely disappointed with the rude customer "service" person I spoke to. Considering how much I have defended Orange on here, I think its a real pity that unless I get the promised call back tomorrow from a CS Manager and get proper service, then after 12 years, I will finally be moving on. -------------------- HTC Diamond running Dutty's V1.6 rom.

Chatting with an Orange rep and was told that the unlimited data would be 500 meg on selected devices, but for everything else it would be 250meg.
The diamond was a 250 device. Of course this could be incorrect as everytime i talk to a different rep at orange i get a different story |

The store has my number on a list that looked like it is actually used. I take it you mean the internet and shops won't be getting a delivery until Monday? |

If I get a new contract anytime soon, it won't be on Orange purely because of that! -------------------- |

Of course this could be incorrect as everytime i talk to a different rep at orange i get a different story He's talking out of his *rse  The eligible 'Unlimited' plans all have a FUP of 500MB, but some plans still seem to have the 'free' 250MB bundle listed as an option, and all plans also have the £8 30MB bundle still as an option I've just placed an online order, with delivery apparently for Friday (in fact I think I may have placed 2 oprders by mistake due to Orange's over enthusiastic secure page timeout that told me my session had timed out, and I needed to resubmit the whole order  ) £39.99 for teh phone, on the Dolphin 35 plan, discounted to £30 for 18 months and including Unlimited Mobile Internet.

I really want this phone but this is so confusing to get my head around !!!
I only want to pay £39.99 price, but what plan do I need to change to?? This is what I need:- 1) I dont want to pay more than £30 a month. 2) Unlimited anytime txt 3) Want the Unlimited Mobile browsing 4) at least 300 mins of Unlimited anytime talk. I think whats confusing me is the plans shown in the user account section differ from the new customers who seem to get a £5 discount........It is possible to change my plan online and also get this discount? Many Thanks UPDATE:::: Scrap the post just called CS and sorted it out and changed plans just in time as my billing date is tommorow

I ordered mine yesterday on the M2YD site. £35 per month for 18 months but with £210 back (will set Outlook to remind me to send those bills back!) and £55 cashback from quidco. M2YD say they have the stock tomorrow. They also confirmed that the Dolphin 35 18 month tariff they offer is the same as the one Orange offer direct and will have the unlimited mobile browsing (250mb fair usage) pack. Hope I havent made an error buying through M2YD!
