Orange UK Introduces Flat-Rate Data Plan

Orange has joined other UK operators in offering flat-rate data plans. Contract customers will be able to sign up for unlimited surfing for 8 pounds per month (US$15.97) or a bundle for evening and weekend browsing at 5 pounds per month (US$9.98), or a cap of one pound (US$2) per day reports ZDNet UK. However, Orange joins Vodafone in banning VoIP or IM on the network: “The bundled prices won’t include VoIP or IM,” an Orange spokesperson confirmed on Friday. “We advise against using [those services] as yet.” — because it could cut into Orange’s voice/SMS revenue.
