Well the news for 02 customers could be better. It seems that 02 dont get the concept of having a mobile. If you have an 02 mobile then it is pretty much useful as receiving a Christmas card at Easter.
Honestly what is the point of having a mobile phone if you cannot call your wife on it. The message I am getting on my 02 phone does not make sense. If I can call my wife on her 07822 3 number from my landline then why is it I cannot call her from my 02 phone. What a joke.
Time for a revolution...

Has noodle gone to pot
Looks like it is a sweet and sour story for all the noodle customers out there. It seems so far that 02 contracts purchased from Carphonewarehouse are getting a lovely message saying that the number is out of order and to contact noodle.
What does this have to do with noodle?? It is 02 that has blocked the call. Bit like when you buy a Pizza from Pizza Hut and they say sorry the Pizza tastes crap contact Domino's Pizza.
It is 02 that has taken the football and walked off the pitch with it. Richard Branson's Virgin team said something to that effect when apparently Sky stopped Virgin from broadcasting Lost, 24 and the other shows on SKY ONE.
Noodle are a UK Mobile Telecom Company just like T-Mobile, Virgin,02, Orange 3 and Vodafone. But it looks like none of the football teams want another team to join. Bit like the Big Four Premiership Clubs.
Well then can have their football, just wait till 3 gets Skype working properly on their phone. Then they may kick the 3 football to touch.
More disturbingly it seems that Orange users may be charged to call 07822 3 noodle numbers. There is no mention of 07822 3 number on http://www1.orange.co.uk/termsupdate/
Looks like hidden charges to me. It mentions
"Customers who use call forwarding services with numbers beginning with 078730, 079785 and 078225 should note that these changes apply to these numbers from 15 December 2007."
Cant see 07822 3 in the above paragraph. Maybe the text is in white. I wonder what Google would say. Apparently Google bans websites that have white text on a white background. Something to do with trying to get a higher search racking. Maybe Google should ban companies that operate hidden charges.

Orange Update on www.orange.co.uk/termsupdate
www.orange.co.uk/termsupdate
Initials reports from orange customers indicate that orange does count 07822 3 as part of their any time any network minutes. They have been emailing us stating that Orange Customer services has confirmed that calls to 07822 3 is part of their inclusive minutes.
As well as it should be because 07822 3 is a UK mobile number.
This is certainly good news for the millions of orange customers.

02
We received some fantastic news yesterday for a customer.
He said that he bought his phone from 02.co.uk and is getting calls to 078223 mobile numbers included in his free minutes. It took him 4 days and over 2 hours arguing that calls to 078223 mobile numbers should be included in the any network minutes on his contract.
This is what he did. He is married and has a wife he loves to talk to. So he got a mobile phone with this number 07822 3** *** and gave this phone to her. So the next day he called her and was having a good time.
As usual the keeps an eye on his 02 bill online at www.02.co.uk and to his horror he saw that he was charged to his wife. His wife was at home in London and he was calling a UK mobile number.
So he promptly phoned the nice people at o2 customer service and asked them why he was being charged to call his wife who was in London and has a UK mobile number.
They said they would investigate and get back , but the persistent fellow that he is he called them back every few hours to find out what was happening. He pointed out that the number he was calling was not a NON-Geographic number. It was NOT on the 02 website as a chargeable number. he told them to go and look at www.02.co.uk/specialnumbers and see for themselves.
How can he be charged for this call to his wife when she was in London using a UK mobile number. He told them that OFCOM considers the 07822 3 mobile range number as a UK mobile number, and would report it to them as 02 are not allowing calls to his wife.
He said that I have an 02 contract anytime any network contract. This means any network. So why cant I call my wife.
Anyway after 4 days 02 have stuck a note in his file that calls to that number will be included his in contact.
The moral of the web post is that the persistent fellow can slay the 02 dragon.

Orange
This is going to be an interesting week for orange customers. They will find out if they are still able to call their friends on the 07822 3 mobile number range.
On http://www1.orange.co.uk/termsupdate/ it states
Tariff Terms and Conditions changes - effective from 15 October 2007Orange has updated its terms and conditions for call forward services. Calls to these services are not included in the inclusive minutes bundle and include calls to 07, 070, 08 and 09 numbers. These calls may be charged to a maximum of 20p per minute, 55p per minute, 55p per minute and £1.70 per minute or per call respectively. This change will take effect from 15 December 2007 and are applicable to ALL existing Orange tariffs, both those that are currently available and all tariffs that are no longer available for sale.
Customers who use call forwarding services with numbers beginning with 078730, 079785 and 078225 should note that these changes apply to these numbers from 15 December 2007.
So it looks like 078223 mobile numbers should be fine as well they should be.
OFCOM clearly considers 078223 mobile numbers as UK mobile numbers so calls to them should be included as part of the any network minutes. Cos as far I understand any network means any network and not just whatever network orange considers as their friend. I myself have several friends whose number are part of the 078223 range, and if I cannot call them I will definitely be writing to Ed Richards the head honcho of OFCOM

Numbers Numbers everywhere where can I get a number
Wow - what a month - our phones having been ringing off the hook since the big girls (they know who they are) suddenly woke up and disconnected a huge range of other people's numbers. They will NOT win, there will always be a way to make free/cheap international calls.
For years everyone has been using calling cards and with the increase usage in VOIP the big girls will be crying. No-one dials an international number directly from the mobile. Why should they pay 75 pence a minute when it only costs the mobile companies maybe 5 pence to route the call. What a rip off.
Even the Chief Executive of OFCOM -Ed Richards will not be able to do a thing about it. Does OFCOM care about the little fish who are trying to make free international calls available on the mobile. Nop, didn't think so.
We note the 3 Mobile who are remarkably fast at blocking free international calls on mobiles have now got a Skype button. Only problem who the hell has a 3 mobile. Not us for sure, and when you make a call using 3 who the hell has a 3 mobile in India. If anyone has one let us know if they can use Skype on their Indian mobile phone. Somehow we doubt it
Well peace out people, keep reading the blog and watching our website for the latest news on how to make free international calls on mobiles.com
WE WILL SURVIVE!!!
