Post by: mobaholic on July 25, 2009, 10:47:04 AM According to MobileToday (http://www.mobiletoday.co.uk/Orange_to_offer_adfunded_tariff_proposition_to_customers.html), "Blyk’s 200,000 subscribers will be given four weeks’ notice from next Friday that the service is terminating and urged to sign up to a contract with Orange directly." "[Orange] is understood to have agreed a partnership with its MVNO service Blyk. Orange will take on Blyk’s technology, to offer its customers an ad-funded proposal, as Blyk closes its service on 31 August. It is thought the advertising funded MVNO Blyk has agreed a partnership deal with Orange following weeks of negotiations, which were reported by New Media Age on 2 July. The MVNO is set to close its service at the end of August. Blyk’s 200,000 subscribers will be given four weeks’ notice from next Friday that the service is terminating and urged to sign up to a contract with Orange directly". |
