I had previously found a problem with the 'Your account' pages when I
noticed that there was no e-mail address in the Contacts field. I put it
in, but when I went back it hadn't stuck. I've now tried this several
times, with the same result. Also, at least one of the pages had a 'Next'
button which didn't work - I had to hit return, and even then the
settings didn't stick.
Last night I registered a couple of PAYG SIMs (to get the 5p/min
international calls on Camel). I wanted to add them to my (monthly)
account details: set up my 4-digit Identity Code, entered SIM No. and
awaited security code. Entered Identity Code and security code, and got
the following:
"enter security details
"There is a problem with some of the information you have entered. Please
correct any mistakes and try again.
"identity code - should be a number between 12 to 19 digit
"You have chosen to add a pay as you go phone to your account.
Please enter your 4 digit identity code and the security code that has
been sent by text message to your phone"
So you have a 4-digit Identity Code that "should be a number between 12
to 19 digit". Am I missing something here, or is this a total cock-up? Is
there any way round it? I called Orange last night, but I didn't have
much faith in their understanding the problem, and their changing my 4
digits to another number made no difference (but I went along to humour
them).
What to do?

Same here. When they told me about the 50p/min number I said I wasn't
going to do that as the problem was with them. Passed to a supervisor who
told me to send an e-mail. Nothing after a couple of days, so called
again, was told I had to speak to a PAYG person, who told me once again
that they would definitely be visible, but it might take a few minutes.
Still nothing.
When I'm up to it I'll try again, and try and escalate.
(Got my paper bill, and it now shows the names against the monthly
phones, even though they still don't show when I go into that part of the
'Your account' pages).
