Default Orange iPhone

Sorry if this is old news.

Had an email with my right to reserve today, and for anyone who didn't know and is interested, the tariffs are identical to O2's, as most expected, so you can probably guess that Vodafones will no doubt be along the same lines too.

I did see something the other day about this, and wasn't overly shocked that pricing was the same.

Does Orange offer Visual Voicemail? I'm going to guess it probably does not, and that'll be one thing that O2 has that Orange won't have, part of the perk of being an "exclusive" partner with Apple.

I expected Orange to be the same price/tariff but have more minutes or just something to differentiate it from O2's offering.

Orange have a cap on data usage (750MB). O2 only have a "fair usage" policy.

the tarrifs and costs are being driven by apple and orange/o2/vodaphone have no say in it

It is the exact reverse for me. O2 doesn't work very well at all. My wife has a hacked iPhone on T-Mobile because O2 was so bad around here.

02 may claim to have better coverage but in reality I dont think they do. My reception at home is poor and sometimes not at all and I live what 8 miles from Reading town centre and O2 HQ is in Slough which says a lot.

By far the worst reception Ive had at my house and is annoying as work also changed from Voda to 02 so now my work phone has naff reception as well.

Dont tell the mrs I said that tho as she works at 02
