Hi,
I'm thinking of switching from Vodaphone to Orange. Looking on the orange website their pay as you go tarrif says that you need to 'top up' at least £10 per month. Er, isn't that a contract tarrif by another name? What happens if at the end of a month you still have credit left over and don't top up?

PS I'm switching from Vodaphone contract which is costing £15 per month and I don't really use the phone that much. I would have been happy to just switch to Vodaphone PAYG but they say that you have to write in to do that. So if they are being that obstructive then I may as well switch networks as well

You have to top up at least GBP10 in a month to get their bonus top-up reward (free texts etc). That's all. Otherwise you get no bonus, but your credit and "account" remain good forever. I think you maybe have to make a chargeable call every 6 months (by recollection only) to keep it active. That's the only "condition".

Unless you want to text a lot (and top up GBP10 pm) I'd go for the "same rates 24/7" tariff.

orange have started a 'magic numbers' thing which lets you call a specific number for about 15p/hour.... it's definatly available on PAYG.... saves lotsa pennies
