Default Orange Phone Bundles

My sister and I both have Orange contracts, and they have the below listed in the bundles...

OW Daily Capped Usage

3G USIM provisioned

Cat Bill Split

... any idea what they are? My sister wants to use her phone to go on the net more but doesn't want to pay a fortune and their 150 has been rubbish!

The OW daily capped rate is related to this:

The 3G thing is this:

If your device is in range of the 3G network and you have a correctly provisioned 3G USIM then you will have access to 3G speeds. If you don't, you won't.

Not sure about the bill split thing.

I'm pretty sure she doesn't have a 3G phone but I've let her know that it shouldn't cost her more than £1.50 a day.

She rarely goes on and when she does, she only goes on for a few minutes at a time but I was just concerned it would quickly add up.

Thanks Kitten

they did do a thing where you could ring up daily and they'd cap it at a pound - might be worth her ringing up and checking with them, just to make sure it's right. Sometimes there's all kind of hidden bits that you don't see in the terms.

Isn't that a £1 PAYGO bundle?
