Orange Broadband/Phone Deal

[STU3UK]

I have recently signed up for this deal.

http://www.orange.co.uk/time/broadbandunlimited/

It is 8Mg Broadband for £20 a month with 6 months free. But the key is it gives you access to free calls Domestic/International including the Philippines.

It all works through a thing called a LiveBox. You keep your existing landline for incoming calls but can call out from the LiveBox giving you your free calls.

The only downside is I dont belive u receive Phone Bill which can be used as evidence for showing calls to Philippines. However, I thought it might be useful for Girlfriends/Wives already here to call home and save some money.:)

but if you dont use the net much, ( i do, pc is on 24/7) and phone pinoyland a lot, then its worth the £20 a month risk ...but from what i've read , if you use the net for hmm downloading stuff, then its not so good

Always check the small print on 'fair usage', Orange is not good for that.

I have orange as my 2nd internet connection, mainly because it was only £5 a month with my mobile contract. I find it very good, it does get slow at peak times but off peak i tend to get full speed.
Then you have the livebox with the free calls, they auto cutoff at 2 hours, but are free to landlines and cells in the Philippine's, which i find insane, its not always the best quality line, but its free!

yes, true, problem with most internet service providers, they claim their service is "UNLIMITED", well to me that means no limits, well why do they have a fair usage policy ? people are being conned and tricked, and it should be illegal to advertise something as "unlimited" when its not .. !!!


tiscali do that, i dont know how they can get away with it ..

[KeithD]

I have two broadband conections, both are UNLIMITED :D, no fair usage on business contracts :xxgrinning--00xx3:
