Well i really do like alot of things about orange (mobile network provider not brodband) they do have some good packages for your money. Well one problem i've been having is about 30% of the texts i send takes about 10 hours to go through and at worst +- 4 days. So i used another phone and made sure i was not using the radiomast that i am closest to and sometimes this still happens.

Now it's not all the time but it used to be instant and sometimes it can get worse and worse untill a point in time. So is anyone else experiencing this that is using orange UK?

Thanks for help in advance

Also added poll just to see the most used

You are obsessed by phones, it worries me, I remember all the old threads about phones and flashing and what not

Having problems? Enable text confirmation to tell you when a text has been received, gather the stats then phone your provider, ask what is going on, 10 hours for a text etc, no text is left idle for more than 24hours anyway, otherwise it is canceled and returned.

It may be a dodgy transmitter/receiver your phone is connected to try resetting it etc.

No i know exactly what you mean! I have the same problem, when I send a message to my GF and she doesn't recieve it for 4-5 hours she thinks im ignoring her and stuff so yeah it pisses the fuck out of me, at least i know its no my phone

im on virgin and it happens with other people but never on virgin, only on some phones on particular networks including orange and t-mobile.

Well i top up about £20 a month and i'm not paying orange to be a send as they feel like it. What package are you?

I top up 30-40 a month so i get 1000 free texts every month ( I think the package is dolphin, cant remember)

£30 is unlimited I think i might call them and if all they can say is "were having a problem and it can't be fixed untill blah blah blah" i really won't be happy.

Yeah that happens to me, and the worst of it is that it only ever happens with this one girl...

Also, have you guys seen Orange Messenger? As far as I can tell you basically get your contact list on your phone and can talk to them. It also says it's free until 30th June.

The downside?

It only accepts @hotmail.xxx and @live.com addresses, so my @gmail.com passport doesn't work.

lol suckage. get them told about, i reckon theyd be glad with the feedback.
