If your looking for cheaper payg mobile calls and you make more then 100 minutes a month.,Orange do a bundle (100 minutes for £5) but note the follow on rate is only 5p a minute if you exceed it. :)

So assuming you use all the minutes in the bundle, then the cost of each one is 5 pence per minute, and then any additional ones are also 5 pence per minute.

Not according to the terms and conditions:

"9. You will be charged at standard Orange Pay As You Go Service Plan rates for usage outside your Extra
allocation."

Ha! I have re-read the table:

Quote:

UK calls	lasts for	cost	Extra p/min	standard p/min*	how to buy it (by text to 6620)
25 mins	1 day	£1	4p/min	20-40p/min	MINS 1
100 mins	1 month	£5	5p/min	20-40p/min	MINS 5

I assumed that the highlighted "Extra p/min" column meant extra minutes outside of the bundle, but now I see that it's the effective pence per minute of each inclusive minute. It's there for those who have trouble calculating the p/min of the inclusive minutes and there to confuse those of us who can calculate it.
