Hi all,

I've just registered an Orange PAYG SIM on one of my old phones as a sort of "disposable" work phone number that I can give out without worrying about people bothering me all the time, as I can turn it off.

All working fine, but if I "busy" a caller it just cuts off, no answer phone. Is there no answerphone provided on PAYG?

There should be an option in your phone list to turn the answer machine on

Usually pressing and holding "1" will go to the service to activate it..

weird, it seems to work now!

I have set up a PIN so I can get at the messages from another phone but it doesn't seem to work :-/

also, how I can I access it from my other Orange phone? It automatically goes straight to its own answerphone! I've tried withholding my number...
