I remember buying my first Orange sim card 5 years back. Ever since orange was replaced by Hutch and now Vodafone, I've had times when i just felt like taking my sim card out of my cell phone and chucking it away. To start with, they discontinued free unlimited gprs, free night calling, increased dropped calls, unattractive schemes and in case of any emergency (we had severe floods in mumbai 2.5 yrs back), its the first network to stop working. The only reason I's sticking with it because most of my friends and family, who were all orange customers, are on vodafone. Well, its been exactly a year and I don’t see any improvements.
