Guest brandall Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 I've just been told by Orange that they will no longer be stocking the M5000 due to too many problems with it!? And it's no longer available for an upgrade. I want to stay with Orange but don't want the offered M600..... Any suggestions - any new releases on the horizon? I've thought about starting a new contract through a dealer (where I can get the M5000 for free with the amount I pay per month) and porting my number (which I need) but apparently you can't port your number on the same bloody network!!! :) HELP!

You can port your number to another network then back to the original one again, virgin payg is quite popular for doing this. Check if Orange have a time limit on when you can port a number into a new contract though, if its inside 30 days that might leave things a bit tight. The old way of doing it was to convert your current contract to OVP matching virgin and set a call divert (which was free from Orange to Orange) to your new number but I don't know if this is still available or not

I would verify that what you have been told is true. I have seen similiar things posted at least twice before, and it turned out both times that it was just that Orange is out of stock...
