Incredible live song
Now THIS is audience participation!
Me thinks the love of Freddie’s life was his music.
*UPDATED* ORANGE mobile are the most incredible cheeky shits
Ever since I changed to a) A contract and b) Orange I’ve regretted it. For several reasons.
Lately it’s cause of with a pay-as-you-go you can use your phone abroad without problem. With a contract, however, you need to pay a £50 deposit(!) in case you – and I quote “fuck off and call a shitload abroad and run up a huge bill” (I swear…!). If you don’t, you can have it back – maybe – after six months.
I told the cheeky little cunt that I wasn’t gonna do that, she went meek and said she would call someone in accounts. I’m being put on hold and have to enjoy Amy Winehouse, Shayne Ward and Sophie Ellis-Bextor whether I like it or not. Then she comes back and says she’s spoken to Mark and he says we can go ahead and set up a direct debit but I still have to pay the £50. What the hell good did that do me, after three massively painful fucking cheesy-ass songs? Nothing. I can’t even switch the fucker ON abroad. Jesus.
So I told her I wasn’t gonna do that. There was silence. Then an “oh”. Yeah, that’s right, ORANGE. Why in the bloody fucking hell would I pay you another fucking fifty quid when I’m already forking out £36 a month? It was announced as £30 for whatever minutes/texts a month. It didn’t even say with small writing (as it fucking should, you dipshits) that it was VAT on top of that. Not that £6 matters a whole lot, but it’s the principle.
Nevermind that the phone keeps switching off every time I try calling customer services – in the middle of “press x for xx and xx and xx and…” Orange provide to give ‘excellent customer service’. Right. I haven’t found anything they’ve done so far even remotely fucking helpful.
So here’s to you, Orange. You fucking cunts.
UPDATE:
So I wanted to unlock the phone so I could put another sim card into the phone. Sure, the Indian fellow in Bombay called “John” said he could send it to me straight away – for £30. THIRTY QUID! What absolute pissheads. Thirty quid to send me a code they’re required by law to give to me “for a reasonable price”. 30 quid being a very reasonable price for a phone that you can get for £90 on a pay-as-you-go. Which I should have gone with in the first place. And, hooray, you can’t unlock it ‘illegally’ either cause this phone – a Nokia 6300 – has a chip in it that gives only your provider the opportunity to unlock it. Anyone that works for this company can kiss my ass.
