We’re not sure if we would say these are wonderfully good value, but SMS Text News has reported that Orange are in the process of upgrading all customers on their latest animal tariffs of £35 and above to now include 500Mb of data automatically. Now, this isn’t unlimited (*), and there doesn’t appear to be any option for increasing this limit, without paying Orange’s standard out of allowance data charges, but it’s certainly a start, and moving existing customers onto these new deals automatically must be applauded.

The migration should take place on your July bill date, and you should receive an SMS from Orange confirming it too. If you want the data bundle before then, you can try ringing up Orange to ask them to add it to your tariff, but SMS Text News report that it appears not all Orange Customer Service staff are aware of this new deal.

In other news, some Racoon plans are getting more minutes, and some Canary plans are getting more texts.

(*) It’s actually being advertised by Orange as unlimited, with a fair usage limit of 500Mb.  We’re sorry Orange, 500Mb is not unlimited, by any definition of the word…
