Orange announces new Internet plans following major overhaul of UK broadband network

Following significant improvements to its UK broadband network, Orange has just announced a range of new fixed broadband offers and made up to 8 Meg download speeds a standard across all its fixed broadband offerings. The move includes the introduction of a free (up to) 8 Meg home broadband reward for Pay Monthly (PAYM) customers.

Orange is offering the Home Starter package to its new mobile PAYM customers* for free, providing them with an increased download speed and usage allowance. The package, available on an 18 month contract with no connection fee, also comes with a wireless router and Orange’s home phone service, allowing users to make inclusive weekend and evening calls to UK landline numbers.

The move follows the largest set of improvements to the company’s fixed line broadband service to date. By implementing closer monitoring systems and upgrading its existing LLU equipment, Orange has radically improved the stability of service its customers receive. Furthermore, by investing in network capacity, Orange customers are now receiving faster speeds and a more reliable service. These network improvements have been matched by changes in Orange’s broadband customer service, ensuring calls are now answered more quickly, and employees are empowered to deal with problems more effectively.
