By charging you more for Braille bills, aren't they falling fowl of the DDA?

  Peter - Firstly, when I had an Orange contract, I got my bills in Braille for 
no extra charge. Secondly, If you were to buy your phone from an online seller 
rather than the major cell providers, you might find they will offer a contract 
on something other than Orange, but if you just look at the website for say O2, 
T-Mobile etc, you'll not find them offering it on contract! -

    Hello

    Have been trying to find outlets for either buying or obtaining on contract 
the N82 with limited success. I understand that the in built GPS receiver works 
well and so it would be a good choice to use with Wayfinder Access.

    I havve only found Orange who provide it on contract and when I asked about 
braille bills they said they charge £3 per bill whereas print billes are 
charged at £1.50.

    I am confused as to whether the lack of availability is because it is an 
old phone or a new phone. It was launched in Nov 2008 according to an article I 
found.

    Has anybody any comments about the Orange customer service etc. Furthermore 
 does anybody know of other providers who offer the N82 on contract?

    Many thanks.

    Peter Bentley
