As far as Orange coverage is concerned Orange has very powerful signal all over the UK .
The reason is that the UK is a small country and they have their signal amplifiers or mobile tower installed after some distance so that the signal don’t drop so generally signal quality is good through out the country for orange. Other than cellular phone service in UK orange also provides broadband services in home and mobile broadband.

I am interested to buy a orange pay as you go package with top up but still i have few questions before i am final with my plan about which service should i purchase and which mobile phone company i should go because i dont want to regret after i purchase the phone or sign up with the cellular provider. This would blast my pocket as i am a student and dont have much money to waste as a result of false decisions so please guide me if i should go with orange O2 or others. Consider the thing that i am only interested in cheap services . Also if you suggest me Orange services also give me an overview of their other services like Orange mobile Broadband Orange UK and Orange broadband internet services

Personally my choice is vodafone and there is a very solid reason that vodafone is more preferable over any plan of Orange and the reason is that Orange wireless signals have never been able to reach our basement and therefore what ever package Orange offers it is useless.
