Orange Animals

[Guest geekgirl]

can't work out whether they're cute or freaky and wondering if anyone else feels the same? :roll:

[Guest Tech]

funny and a joke imho - look at the new priceplans - not as great as before, even then it wasnt great

[Guest adchaffey]

I've voted magic, but only because i agree more with that than madness! I wouldn't call it a stroke of genious or anything, but quite a novel idea. Could work, but not on me! I've already jumped ship to T-Mobile! Sorry O!

[Guest mandt]

Hmm, got to agree with the others here, certainly not magic, going to jump ship to O2 myself

Hold on. On the 1st April (yes, 1st April, wink wink), I remember reading a blog post somewhere, saying that the Orange network was closing. Maybe these tarifs are a way to remove any remaining customers that Orange has, in order to finalise the network closure. ;) :P ;) :shock: :?: :twisted: :twisted: ;) ;)

And before you ask.............. only joking!!!!!

Okay that was quite random lol ;)

Madness.... I dont want to be compared to an animal and dont really want to listen to little kiddies getting their first phone shouting "I wana have the dolphin!"

I have mentioned this before - I reckon the MD's little granddaughter had a cutesy dream one night that granddad's Company was run by cutesy little animals....

Oh, what a good idea, he thought. And so was born a whole new tarrif package, guarranteed to meet the needs of all those cutesy kiddies with far too much disposable income.

I'm off to T-Mob as soon as my contract expires. I'm sure they'll be giving away the Vario II by then with more mins and txts than I could ever use - and an all-I-can-eat data package too.

Bye-bye my furry friends (except the dolphin - no fur there ;) )

you are OBSESSED with that theory :P

Personally, its a good media stunt, bound to attract attention - and if there's anything Orange love more than attracting attention, its creating talkplans that aren't competitive!

oh, and I nabbed a PANTHER mug from my old work place today.. the rim says 'Likes all the extras' - well if you mean cream on my coffee.. yes, yes i do ;)

I just can't imagine how else they came about ;)

You can't tell me be-suited execs all sat around the board room and 'invented' the idea as a serious marketing ploy :shock:

Rediculous :exclaim:

I blame that Bernard Ghillebaert, Executive Vice President -- he's french, you know :P

[Guest Disco Stu]

I'm old and cynical and pretty good at filtering out advertising and I haven't seen any of this yet.

Is it on the telly or what ? :?:

[Guest mandt]

Seen it in the press, also plastered all over my local orange shop, definitely for real

Ah, Oui. La Franacais. Obvious then really ;)

[Guest Crispy]

Gets a magic vote from me... but mind you, that's only because I'm kinda biased when it comes to cute fluffy animals... I'm pretty sure that most people would say that this is nothing more than yet another stupid marketing stunt in the long line stupid marketing stunts... :roll:
