Orange price increases 4.34%

[joshg_7]

Has everybody else that has an orange contract had the text?

Am I right in thinking that around a year ago they tried this, and it turned out people were able to cancel contracts for free because of a loophole in the T's & C's? Where would that leave us now?

Anyone?

[Ali123]

yep, i got that text not long ago. already paying 35 a month. well 45 including insurance but the contract its self is 35 :(

There's an article about this on moneysavingexpert.com. People finding ways to get out of the contract

Check there.

Yeah I've just read, you can tell them your leaving the contract, and if they say no you can contact ofcom, and if enough people complain then orange would have to answer to an investigation.

[LouisUK]

Surely the contract is for the agreed price you signed up for and they can't just change it and not let you have the option to cancel.

i got that txt the other day, just thought it was because im paying £5 a month so gonna be back to normal price again. cunts

[Jordysport]

i got it, going to ring them up tommorow when there isn't a 2 hour phone waiting list!!!!!! gonna try and get out of my contract, see what happens, if not will just threaten a complaint to ofcom, if nothing then will complain to ofcom, i am sure there are thousands of people complaining, for me on a very small payment per month basis its still £20 over my contract life.

I havent got the text and wont be getting it if they wish me to remain a customer.

Is they not something in the contact terms and conditions saying that orange can change it when they see fit?

I can actually come out of my contract now anyway due to carephonewarehouse insurance. Is it JUST orange doing this or is it everyone else also?

all fuck ups 4 u will do is offer to buy you out of the contract, which isnt even a buy out.

[Mochachino]

Its in their terms and conditions that what they have done is ok..its been there in their T&C's for 10 years and this is the first time its been used.

[timmythechef]

I had one just now. Bout to ring them to tell them to shove it.

[LeeM]

its in the terms they can increase in line with inflation. theres a thread on corsasport with a few guys who know the score.

nope not yet, only done a couple of phone calls, and an ofcom complaint, so if they rack up and i keep nagging they might yield. as said they don't have to. but their brand image is going to be soooooo shit after this its not going to be worth it.

orange did "Try" to do it once a couple of years ago but there was soo much uproar they went back on their word with their tail between their legs and said they wouldn't do it again....

i have loads of problems with signal!
I literally have to turn off and switch my phone back on about 6 or 7 times a day for it to get signal again. just loses signal randomly, even places where i usually have full signal
