My contract was up on 16th June, I requested my PAC on 26th May, I used
the PAC on 9th June and when my final bill came I was only billed until
16th.

I had a 18th month contract with 3 which now ran out so changed to a
cashback deal on orange where i get 600 mins and 3000 texts and a n95
for not much more than i had with 3. 3 did offer me deals but a lot
more than the orange one.

Yes, Orange are throwing phone subsidies at dealers like a drunken sailor
on payday.

Having to out subsidise 3, shows the hidden cost of the failure
of FT Orange management.

I was one of the greatest fans of Hans Snooks Orange since it started in
1994,
and have seen it ruined by FT Orange management.
