Green Party European Election Broadcast

The Labour Party has betrayed the working people of this country. I have joined the Green Party and intend to actively support them in the 2009 European election and beyond.

VOTE GREEN!

Orange Mobile Are Shit

After 10 years as an Orange customer - sometimes PAYG, sometimes monthly contract - they have finally succeeded in driving me away.

I had been using a Palm Centro on Orange PAYG for a while when I spotted I could add a £5 500MB "unlimited" data bundle to a SIM only Dolphin plan which would allow me use the net more freely without incurring extra cost (given my usage).

The data bundle was clearly available and selected when I ordered online.

My first bill correctly included a charge for the 500MB data bundle. My second bill quietly dropped the data bundle and included a £16 charge for data! After a call to customer services Orange apologised, refunded the data charges and promised to reinstate the data bundle.

My April bill still had no data bundle and over £30 of data charges! When I complained customer services told me that the data bundle was simply not available to SIM only customers - despite the fact that they had taken my order and even invoiced me for it once! When I asked for my PAC the retentions department continued to insist it was simply not possible to have a data bundle with a SIM only package - and went so far as to state that no UK mobile company had such an offering.

Fuck 'em. I am off to O2 Simplicity with an unlimited web bolt on for £20 a month. I'll never use or recommend those useless twats again.
