About Orange
Best known for their mobile phone network, Orange also offer landline telephone services and ADSL broadband services with speeds of up to 20mb. While not the fastest on the market, Orange broadband is one of the few providers to promise a truly uncapped download limit – they don’t even have any sneaky clauses in their small print or ‘fair use’ policies. In other words you can download as much as you please without any catches! Orange are also known for their ongoing weekly 2 for 1 promotions, and subscribers to Orange broadband can expect to receive 2 for 1 cinema tickets and 2 for 1 pizza vouchers every Wednesday!
Best Bits
If you’re an existing Orange customer you can get Orange broadband with off-peak calls for as little as £7.50/month – that’s a £5/month discount off the usual £12/month price. That price doesn’t include the £11.50/month line rental, but there are no connection charges and Orange will also give you the first 3 months of your broadband subscription for free!
Since the inception of the internel/broadband, I've had a few ISPs and am currently with Orange. I've never moved for negative reasons, usually just better deals/freebies etc. However, I'm now on this site looking to change SOLELY due to the negative experience with Orange. Their offering/interface/experience has barely made progress in 4 years I've been with them. Mail is lousy; it's pointless trying to attach any amount of photo's with the micro allowance allowed. Line-speed consistency is appauling, ranging from 2MB+ if lucky down to a horribly regular -300kb every day!!!. I've lost count of the number of items I've lost on e-bay due to this, and e-mails I've given up on and just used outlook. In fact, there's my first tip; forget orange mail, just cut out the grief and use outlook or anything else. Customer services/complaints do not exist. Tech support, an Asian call centre of course, not necessarily a

Service 1
Having been an Orange (Freeserve/Wanadoo) customer for many years I have been experiencing connection problems since April 08 when Orange upgraded their equipment at my exchange. Suddenly and without warning I was cut off from my internet connection on 28 July 08. It took Orange until 21 Aug to find the fault and reconnect my service. What was the problem? Line overload! Orange were trying to download 8mb into a 0.5mb land line. Very poor service.

A bit more about Orange
Orange is one of the UK’s oldest and best known telecommunications brands stretching all the way back to 1994 when Hutchinson Telecom adopted the brand for their UK mobile phone network. In 2000 Hutchinson Telecom was acquired by France Télécom and, rather than ditch such a distinctive brand, they adopted the Orange brand for nearly all their commercial operations. France Télécom was later to acquire UK ISP Freeserve and this was eventually to become what is today known as Orange broadband!
