Orange UK have lowered the cost of using your smartphone abroad with a range of data bundles on offer so users no longer have the worry about the cost of keeping in touch. The options available are:
- £3 for 30MB lasting 24hrs
- £15 for 30MB lasting 30 days
- £50 for 150MB lasting 30 days
- £150 for 500MB lasting 30 days
Orange has launched a daily browsing for customers travelling within the EU. A £3 daily bundle gives 30MB of data, with customers only charged if they use any data within a 24-hour period.
The network believes 30MB a day overs 99.5% of a customer’s daily needs, but monthly bundles can be purchased too, starting at £15 for 30MB, £50 for 150MB and £150 for 500MB. Each of these may also be purchased as a one-off 30 day bundle.
To enable the daily bundle, or one of the other mobile Internet bundles, customers should call customer services on 150 at home or abroad.

Lowered? That’s supposed to be cheap? FUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!
Nowhere near good enough. This is still robbery!
Sorry but that is still mad!! Just get the phone unlocked and use a local sim for data. £150 for 500mb Robbery indeed!!!
Interesting that they think this meets ‘99.5%’ of users needs…presumably because virtually no-one uses any data at the moment because it is a rip off…which this doesn’t seem to change significantly.
Nail on the head Ben. The only reason you’ll find me using any form of Orange Data is the free stuff they give me.
