Who's left Orange for T-Mobile?, They should know why by now, but do they know how many? |

OK, so how many people here have actually left Orange to go to T-Mobile (or other networks) because of the new tariffs?

I'm seriously considering it, it's only the lack of good smartphones that is stopping me at the moment....

Wish I had waited a bit longer then gone with T-Mob cause of their tariffs, but ended up going with O2 at the time because the Qtek was only £30 on the offer I found and I desperatlely needed to get away from Orange, I still have a PAYG on Orange but that's only so I can use teh Orange Wednesday's.

I really only moved to T-Mobile because I was really keen on the Vario which Orange wasn't releasing. Having said that, the tariff I'm on with T-Mob is a lot cheaper when it's half price for 9 months of the 18, so I'm really happy i switched. Same here too, I've been with orange for 6 years and they didn't even ask why i was leaving when i asked for my PAC code let alone try and keep me as a customer!

Vodafone because the customer service I recieved from them was really great. Can't say the same for Orange these days.
Was very tempted to got to T-mobile though, with the new data deal I think it might be my next switch --------------------  |

I have been with orange for 14 years. I spend between £100 and £300 per month (about £40 of that is data). I rang them and spoke to retentions. I explained the scenario and they admitted that they could not match the unlimited data plans and could not offer me any worthwhile incentives to stay with them.
Amazing when you consider all of the networks are apparently aiming to retain the higher-spending and data hungry users who will help them recoup their investments in high speed networks. Au revoir Orange/France Telecom - hello Tmobile. -------------------- HTC Diamond running Dutty's V1.6 rom.

If Orange release the Hermes at the same price as TMob, at the same time (!), and have an unlimited data plan for £7.50 or less a month, i'll happily stay with them, i like Orange, and will be keeping my "main" contract with them until at least February.
However as soon as TMob release the Vario II i'll be in there
