Guest squall Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 Free Memory Mate card (for backup of numbers and texts stored on your SIM card) Heh that will be a useful thing wont it? :shock: Anyways thanks for the conformation amo, good to see you back!
Guest lowbug Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 What about value promise customers like me with 3000+ minutes and a £95 traiff? :P :D
Guest blackhorse Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 We have both in stock Personally i prefer the black anyway
Guest markbrads Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 Any pictures of both phones say next to each other available to compare
Guest amo Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 The Premier packages offer excellent value for money. The separate selling cost for this kind of tariff would otherwise be as follows: Your Plan 400: £50 Orange Care: £5 3Mb GPRS: £4 Memory Mate: £2.99 Upgrade fee after 9 months: £75 (ex VAT) (approx) Voicemail: 10p/min (after inclusive allowance used) Total Your Plan 400 cost: £150.12 (inc VAT) Premier Cost: £55 (including Phone Trainer appointment: Priceless :lol:) What about value promise customers like me with 3000+ minutes and a £95 traiff? :P :D Unfortunately, the Champaign colour handset currently is exclusive to Orange Premier customers and equivalent matched tariffs are not included.
Guest blackhorse Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Premier Cost: £55 (including Phone Trainer appointment: Priceless :D) :D :lol: Watch it matey, im assuming your saying our superb services are something money just cant buy?! :?: :wink: :P
Guest blackhorse Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Any pictures of both phones say next to each other available to compare This was taken from the Modaco homepage! This what you mean??
Guest chucky.egg Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 That's not an accurate comparison though! The "Your Plan" total of £150 isn't the monthly cost that you are comparing to monthly cost of the Premier tariff. You actually only save £4/month, and a one-off payment of £75 if you upgrade within 12 months (probably a lot of us do). The Premier packages offer excellent value for money. The separate selling cost for this kind of tariff would otherwise be as follows: Your Plan 400: £50 Orange Care: £5 3Mb GPRS: £4 Memory Mate: £2.99 Upgrade fee after 9 months: £75 (ex VAT) (approx) Voicemail: 10p/min (after inclusive allowance used) Total Your Plan 400 cost: £150.12 (inc VAT) Premier Cost: £55 (including Phone Trainer appointment: Priceless :P)
Guest inspectorgadjet Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 It's actually a £9 per month saving - Orange care is £5 per month and the GPRS is £4 per month.
Guest blackhorse Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 It's actually a £9 per month saving - Orange care is £5 per month and the GPRS is £4 per month. Not to be picky but the is its £4 YourPlan 400 is £50 Care is £5 World Access is £4 Total Cost £59 Premier 400 is £55 (includes care and access pack)
Guest mcwarre Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Or bugger O and goto three where 750 x-network minutes are £35 (or if you shop around you can get them for £17.50 for a year). Only drawback no C500. With the saving buy a SIM free one off of eBay.............. All this for a different colour phone, I ask you! Just wait until covers are (if) available
Guest martin Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 mcwarre Why would you subscribe to a UMTS network and then go buy a C500 with the savings. What would you do with the GSM phone, unless you use a PAYG SIM ?
Guest mcwarre Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Martin, So you have cheap tarrif and a C500 (i.e. two phones). If you wanted to illegally change the C500 IMEI to a 3 IMEI then you would need only the C500 (use the 3 SIM and O2 network). But you couldn't use it because you would be in the nick. Or use a PAYG sim. I know a lot of people with 2 phones
Guest podavies Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Just ordered mine on 150 got it free of charge lets hope it last longer the e200 that went back after 1 day. I've still been using the orignal SPV since it was first introduced
Guest zeta101 Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 im glad that O have offered the silver to premium customers and have the black one for us commoners, the black seems so much nicer...saw one in a shop today...im sick of silver...99.9% of all phones on the market are silver...cept the mpx200 ofcourse :)
Guest amo Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 In responce to the earlier message in regards to savings on Premier packages. This outline was not intended as a monthly saving, merely as a potential saving were you to upgrade. The Premier packages are not aimed at the majority of customers, merely a niche of our market and the availability of 9 month upgrades is a key selling factor of the Premier package that excells itself from standard Your Plan packages.
Guest mcwarre Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Amo, You are sounding more like Mr O with every passing minute :wink:
Guest dearsina Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 This whole Orange premier-only isn't completely true, you can get it as a free-upgrade on most high-end (£50+) tarrifs. But today they were unavailable, this is a a direct quote from the Orange lady: "The phones are released, but they are not in shops or available here." The old saying of 'pay peanuts, get monkeys' holds water like never before at one-five-o. sina london /still waiting for the c500
Guest jasonkentwest Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 I ordered my C500 yesterday (got it for free) and it is suppose to arrive by end of week. But the best part is I negotiated a new tariff using a competitor's offer as leverage. O counter-offered to doubled my minutes (presently 200) for 12 months and for less per month! So I now I’ll get 400 minutes/month for £30 which is £15 less a month and 200 more minutes than my old tariff on my old SPV. Forget Premier rates when you can save by negotiating with O.
