Orange T-mobile network problem?

Is anyone else on Orange suffering from problems with your network connection. I've been having problems sending texts for around 2 days now. When I'm at home my phone has a poor signal but works most of the time when it switches to orange T-mobile. I've noticed for the last couple of days though it always says Orange OR T-mobile but never switches to Orange T-mobile.

Mrs Wildwood hasn't been able to ring out or accept calls since last night. All I get when I try her is "Press 1 to let the person know you have tried calling"

It flicked briefly to Orange t-Mobile there for a few mins and got a full signal back, gone again now though. Maybe they are trying to fix it?

I lost signal about half 9 this morning, reset the phone and its been OK since. I'm on Orange, not t-mobile.

Maybe they started the 4G rollout early? :D

Seemed to have sorted it for her . Selected the orange/tmobile network instead and messages came flooding through

According to website - could be as late as Sunday before its rectified .

For some reason every now and again the phone defaults back to the t mobile network setting by itself (Android)

On Orange Pay Monthly, I've been having intermittent problems all day.
Mrs Stafford Beast is on T-Mobile and her phone hasn't worked at all in Stafford, but in Lichfield it was ok. I've tried switching her to T-Mobile Orange, but it can't connect to any network. I also get the "Press 1 to let the person know you've called" message when ringing her.

how bizarre - people at work have been complaining about this since thursday, and they were adamant that "it's a problem with one of the masts, so is affecting everyone", but i'm on t-mobile and my phone has been working fine this whole time.. i've made & received phone calls and texts, as well as browsed the internet as usual all week.. just checked now, and sure enough it's still working fine - i sent a text to my sister (who is on orange) and got a reply within minutes..

checked which network i'm on, and it still says "T-Mobile Orange", as it always does.. so for some reason, for once, i'm seem to be one of the lucky ones!

I'm on Orange and it's being saying T-Mobile for the last day or so, but still seems to be working OK.

It is a Motorola V3 - so, maybe I'm also seen as a special case...

My mate who works for T-Mob has just posted this on Facebook:

"If your phone has lost signal: Switch your phone to flight mode then off again. Should sort it."

Went into T Mobile shop on a different matter - and he reckoned it could be another day or so before sorted properly. He adnitted it was a bit hit and miss if it was working or not
