ORANGE will become the first UK mobile network to offer pay-as-you-go customers the chance to go "overdrawn" by continuing to make calls and sending texts once their credit has run out.
The Orange "Reserve Tank" overdraft gives its pre-pay users a £2.50 credit facility, allowing them to send 25 more texts or make 14 minutes of calls once their top-ups have run out.
But the plan costs £1.00 to activate and customers who go into their overdraft will see UK call charges upped from 15p per minute to 18p per minute.
Anthony Ball of mobile comparison service OneCompare.com thinks it is a bad move for consumers: “Orange’s new overdraft facility will simply become the new 'no credit left' point for people.
“The benefits of pay-as-you-go deals mean people are unable to run-up a phone bill and can therefore stick within their budget.
“Many pay-as-you-go customers’, particularly older people and pensioners, are not heavy mobile users and often use their mobile phone just to make an emergency call.
“I would recommend the Vodafone Friends and Family package, which allows free calls to five nominated Vodafone members in a group with one person paying £5 per month.”
Many customers are forced to stick with pay-as-you-go because of poor credit ratings.
Your credit status could be damaged by a late payment, fraud or even a banking error - without you even realising.

Nokia E65
Nokia’s stunning E65 is a business handset with consumer good looks and comes loaded with just about every feature under the sun.
When Nokia first introduced the E65 to Mobile Choice in February, there was one phone detail that the presenter felt compelled to emphasise: the handset has a great sliding action.
Not, we hasten to add, that this business-ready smartphone comes with 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, easy-to-set-up email, the ability to view attachments, or a first-class two-megapixel camera. No, it was the sliding action.
This isn’t a gentle dig at Nokia. On the contrary, we agree that little quirks like the quality of the sliding action can make all the difference. What’s more, here at Mobile Choice we adopt a ’10-second’ rule. If the phone makes a great impression in the first 10 seconds, we reckon that eight times out of 10, it will be a hit with the market.
And the sliding action on the E65 is great. It feels smooth and solid, like the sound made when closing the door of an expensive car.
The first thing you need to know about the E65, is that it is a business phone, as are all Nokia’s Eseries handsets. This is worth pointing out because it doesn’t look like a business phone. In fact, the E65 is compact and has a similar look and feel to Nokia’s Nseries of premium lifestyle handsets.
It is common knowledge that many business users still pine for the old Nokia 6310, with its solid, streamlined build and long battery life. However, it is time these old business dinosaurs finally woke up to the modern wireless age, and the E65 looks like the handset to give them a helping hand.
Number one, it is packed with features. On board the E65, you’ll find a wealth of features which will appeal to the business and consumer user in all of us, including: a two-megpixel camera; easy-to-set-up email; 3G data speeds; Wi-Fi; Bluetooth; an xHTML browser; conference calling; the ability to view attachments and PDFs; Push-To-Talk and instant messaging (IM). And that is just scratching the surface.
Secondly, the E65 looks and feels marvellous, which is an absolute must these days. Assuming you’re not looking for a PDA-style device, the Nokia E65 is just about the perfect size for a mobile business phone. Measuring 105x49x15.5mm and weighing 115g, the E65 is compact without being fiddly and light without being flimsy.
It also has a faux leather rear casing which sounds awful, but actually looks and feels great. It makes a refreshing change from the shiny black or silver which usually adorns business phones.
Push the sliding fascia up from the base and you get a perfectly spaced keypad with very responsive keys. The litmus test for a great keypad is to tap in a quick text message, which will also give you a clue as to the general usability of the phone, and the E65 passes both tests with flying colours.
The keypad and joypad feel great and the text interface is really intuitive. For example, when you enter a symbol, which is common if you send a lot of emails, the device remembers the last symbols you used and creates a new list of regularly used symbols, with the last one entered at the front of the queue.
While the E65 has the looks and feel to make a great choice for any consumer looking for a top-of-the-range phone, we know that Nokia is targeting the business market, so we’ll concentrate on the business functionality.
Voice functionality
The E65 features two dedicated one-touch access keys, which enable you to access a conference call, a favourite number, and your list of contacts.
Assuming you have permission, a voice recorder lets you record any important conversations and it is also easy to set up voice commands for handsfree calls. This functionality is not new, but has added significance now the mobile driving laws have just got tougher. There’s even the
Push-To-Talk facility, which lets you use your phone like a walkie-talkie.
Messaging
You have an abundance of options here, with SMS, MMS and IM all present and correct. However, most business users these days should consider remote access to their email accounts. This is one of the many strengths of the E65, which also lets you download and view attachments.
Unfortunately, the E65 is not the best Eseries device for email. That honour goes to Nokia’s E61i. It is more powerful, with a larger screen, a full QWERTY keypad and it is easy to set up. However, the E65 is a good option for remotely accessing your ISP accounts, and it supports POP/IMAP, SMTP and IMAP4.
In addition to email, the E65 also has an IM client, which enables you to have real-time messaging chats with other enabled phones. As so few mobiles support the service, IM is not the hit on phones that it has proved to be with the fixed-line PC market. However, IP-related technologies such as IM and VoIP (also present on the E65) are widely predicted to be a major hit in the near future, so you can sample it here first.
In fact, there is an abundance of cutting-edge applications and features – including sat nav (although you will need a GPS receiver) – that you will find on the E65 that you may not have tried before. And it all adds up to a very impressive phone.
It’s good looking, it’s clever….and did we mention that it has a great sliding action?

Nokia Still King In Shrinking Phone Market
Phone shipments jumped 10 percent in the first quarter to 256.4 million units, a decline of 13.8 percent from the last quarter of 2006, according to the report. Gains topped 20 percent for each quarter in 2006.
These numbers, however, can be linked to the inevitable decline of cell phone purchases as everyone from your eight-year-old neighbor to your elderly grandparents acquire the devices, leaving fewer and fewer individuals without a mobile phone, IDC said. Recent shipments are therefore more geared toward current subscribers replacing outdated phones than new customers, the firm said.
With 91.1 million units shipped in the first quarter, Nokia easily beat out the number-two vendor Motorola, which shipped 45.4 million units. Nokia saw shipments to the Middle East, Africa and China increase since the holiday season, though Asia/Pacific purchases remained the same. The company was particularly successful in the converged mobile device space, moving 11.8 million units as consumers snapped up the N73, N70 and recently launched E65.
Nokia, however, has had a difficult time selling phones within the United States. Exact IDC numbers for mobile phone sales within the U.S. will be released in about two weeks, an IDC representative said.
Motorola was in recovery mode for the first quarter, IDC said. It dropped 1.5 percent from the first quarter of 2006, but is looking to recover its 2006 losses this year with a new management team and newly announced devices, according to researchers.
While Motorola announced plans to revamp growth, the sudden shift in momentum demonstrates how competitive this industry is and how innovation on product development is essential," said Ryan Reith, research analyst for IDC's Worldwide Mobile Phone Tracker, in a statement.
Samsung, which shipped 34.8 million devices during the quarter, was the only company to post a sequential and year-over-year increase. It jumped 20 percent from this time last year, due in part to sales of "Ultra Edition" handsets, particularly the D900 model, and the E250 handset, IDC said.
"Samsung was able to benefit from Motorola's misfortunes by recording a positive sequential growth in the first quarter, which is uncommon given the effects of seasonality on this industry," according to Reith.
Nokia may have shipped the largest number of phones in the first quarter, but Sony Ericsson saw the greatest percentage leap since Q1 2006. Nokia jumped 21.3 percent since this time last year, but Sony Ericsson saw an increase of 63.9 percent. That success can be attributed to gains in low- and mid-tier products portfolio in Europe, Asia/Pacific and Latin America, according to IDC.
However Ericsson's "strategy to move into lower-tier devices nonetheless put downward pressure on average selling prices," IDC said.
LG Electronics, meanwhile, was expected to post a decrease in shipments and flat growth, IDC said. The company shipped 15.8 million units, an 11.9 percent decrease from 1Q 2006.
But "having enjoyed success from its iconic Black Label Chocolate series, the company hopes for similar success with more premium devices, including its Shine and digital multimedia broadcast devices," IDC wrote.
"The increase in worldwide phone shipments was driven, in part, by new subscribers in emerging markets and, in part, by replacement sales in mature markets," said Ramon Llamas, research analyst with IDC's mobile devices technology and trends group, in a statement.
Device vendors are pushing low-cost handsets, but that "has the unfortunate effect of dragging down device ASPs," Llamas said. "To stem the decline in ASPs, device vendors are taking steps to rationalize platforms, improve supply chain logistics, and relocate production to low-cost regions."

Cellphone myths, and little-known facts
What if you could tap a special code into your cellphone to unlock a reserve of battery power for those desperate moments when you need to make just one more call before your phone dies?
"Total nonsense," said Richard Windsor, an analyst with Nomura in London, who specializes in cellphones and cellphone equipment.
"Pure science fiction," said Marcus Dacombe, Nokia's head of product marketing and sales for Europe.
Too bad, because if you read Internet blogs you might almost convince yourself that the function does exist, as implausible as it might sound. A wealth of mythology has grown up around cellphones and little-known functions that make them tick. The potential of extra battery power is perhaps the function that seems most immediately useful, but it is not the only one.
"It would be great if the story about the reserve battery power was true," Dacombe said. "I would be fascinated to know where the idea that it exists came from."
Nobody is exactly sure where these ideas about special cellphone features come from, but they are out there and most are nothing more than myths that have endured over many years.
There is the one that says that if you lock your keys in the car and you have a remote keyless entry system, you can unlock the car by having somebody beep your spare remote over a cellphone if you hold the phone near the car door.
That is surely another trick the phone makers should have invented - except that the remote opening systems for cars work on radio waves, which cannot be transmitted over a cellphone.
These myths have managed to dupe the gullible probably in part because most cellphones do indeed have some little-known functions that are not explained in owner's manuals.
For example, on many phones, punching in *#06# will get you the serial number of the phone, a number that is particular to that handset and can be used to block the phone if it is stolen.
That number is also written on a white label on the inside of all phones, usually underneath the battery.
Dialing *#0000# on Nokia phones will display a screen with details on the version of the software the phone is using. Similar codes will work on other types of phones, usually the more advanced models.
