Guest podavies Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 Just spoke to Orange to upgrade my phone, so i rang 150 told them i wanted to upgrade to a E200 they told me i would have to pay £150 so i told them i could get one for £50 pounds from another retailer the woman said well thats with a new connection, so i said i dont care can you cancel my contract then, she then put me through to the cancelation dept. who said sorry about that because your a good customer(average phone bill £60) you can have the phone for free and have a £50 rebate off your next bill. How cool is that still in shock :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
Guest Bunchie Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 Damn.. thats probably the best deal i've heard for someone getting an E200. Looks like it was your lucky day! It just goes to show that Orange Retention do have the power to make some quality decisions!

I see what your saying it like they paid me to have the phone I think im going to have fit with that avatar of yours :lol: ;) :(
Guest Bunchie Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 Hahaha yeah I think i'm gonna have to find a replacement.. Will probably annoy quite a few people! I didn't realise it was that bad really. :lol:
Guest Bunchie Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 There we go.. managed to find a new one :lol:
Guest paulmottley Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 Only been offerd it for £49.99 so far and they weren't budging. Even told them I would goto T-mobile (never would mind you!) , still same answer. Ave bill £50. not happy
Guest hatton33 Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 podavies - how far into you existing contract are you? and what tarriff are you on?? Just so i know, cause then i can phone up orange, do the same thing, and say "well how come my mate who has xxx contract with xxx remainding months left got this deal and im not getting the same!!" I like trying to blag things! Rob
Guest paulmottley Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 Mine runs out on Dec 12th, still didn't matter
Guest hatton33 Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 Thats probably why then. Since im only 4 months into my contract, doubt they'll do much for me. been advised to wait.
Guest paulmottley Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 That's my point, I've only got a couple of weeks but they stuck to thier guns with the price
Guest podavies Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 My contract ran out on the 22nd, but it wasnt the upgrade people that gave me the deal it was the cancelation team that did that the upgrade team wont do anything for you. but the other guys will. Hope this helps.
Guest hatton33 Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 Yeah it does thanks, only thing is i dont want them to call my bluff and end my contract! all i want is a cheep E200!!! lol!
Guest paulmottley Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 we all want a cheap one!!!! I spoke to the retensions dept who offered it at £49.99. But I know I can get it for free from another website!
Guest glynton Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 The other thing aswell is that with a new connection at the moment, you get 2000 texts for the first 6 months. You could use them to send everyone you know your new number!
Guest hatton33 Posted November 26, 2003 Report Posted November 26, 2003 I've been contacted twice about the upgrade. The first guy said he could do me a deal where i'd get the phone for £99.99 plus the upgrade fee, whatever that is. But the second offered me the phone at £149.99. What is Orange's deal? I dont understand how one person can offer one thing, and another something else! Are they on commision or something?
