hi everyone,
I can confirm (& this is 110% accurate!) that 0870 are NOT free & cost £0.50 peak & £0.25 off peak. I have been in touch with orange (who were not interested in using any gateways other than their own) & they have confirmed this. I also asked when their gateway was to be increased & was told off one person that it could be soon (although they weren't sure!) & another told me that they had NO intentions of increasing its size.

yeah I knew that 0870 wasn't free but I don't think its that much! I'll check my bill and the response you get from the telephone operators when you ask them technical questions like that always varies because I don't think they are told the right answers

0870 numbers are part of your inclusive minutes (tariff dependant however I'm not sure if this applies for data calls

I think it's very strange that Orange not have changed their gateway settings by now. It's more than 4 month since they announced that they would increase the 1.5kb limit. Is this lack of customer care?

Maybe they are upgrading the system capacity or somthing similar, Orange are a good provider ( they have won best provider award for several years running now) and all of my family is on Orange and have been for ages.
It'll be sorted soon, don't forget that the T68 hasn't been on Orange for as long as the other networks so the user base is much smaller so the demand for a 3k gateway is a very small % I would say less than 2%

Hi all

0870 it's a national rate call so should be included on your 50 free minutes a day on ED50 but does this tariff allow you to use it for data? or only for voice?
Has anybody checked this with orange? I want to use wap but in the less expensive way of course suggestions?

Cheers

If you want a decent answer to the question phone 156, go through to the GPRS option and you get through to the second line data team who are quite good, they were quoting while i was using orange that it would be by the end of q2 2002 for the limit to be increased

if you use everytime 200/400/1000 or biz 200/400/1000 set you phone up to use Vodafone or genie as that will come out of your inclusive mins, I had to use another networks data dial up to get the calls out of my inc mins - I in the end got pissed of with orange and went to O2.
