The apparent "rebrand" is coming.  

It's hitting the nation on the 5th July, but I get a sneek peak from the 3rd.
I'm on holiday today until the 4th, so I'll post anything of interest as soon as I can.

Any deets at all about what this will entail?

All I know is this..... and I quote:

"I am the rumours and whispers
and the leak to the trade press
I am the words that have been written
but not the facts that remain hidden
I am 3 July and the news when it hits
I am the new vision for the Orange brand

Dont believe everything you read in the papers.  
Comes back on the 3rd July and be the first to see the new vision for the Orange brand before we launch it on TV on 5 July."

I do know that there are 400-ish job going, but that appears to be middle->upper managment as part of a massive re-org and that offshore support / CS is coming back to the UK creating 500+ jobs , but that's not been much of a secret.

Does anything surprise you with orange these days? Anyone who can call a price plan 'Camel' is capable of anything....

You can find all the details of the orange rebrand and new pricing which includes new data bundles and calling bundles when abroad...

lol youve not seen what they call the staff plans!
Ill give you a clue, we have our own animal range coming!!  <_<

I assume they will be things like 'Kitten' and 'horse' (black, of course) and not like 'Rottweiller' or 'Leach'?

We all know that Orange employees are jolly nice people - but do they?

After some delays and problems (including 26 Lithuanians being deported....just as we were leaving the country) mean that I didn't get back until last yesterday.

I tried to VPN and found my password had expired.  Lo and behold the new web-based password reseting system doesn't work either!

I know it's a day past the 5th but I've not read anything about the rebrand so I'll post all I can tomorrow when I get in.
