So, how come they don't use their own service?
It certainly doesn't encourage me to look that way next time my contract to com,es up for renewal.
A long-standing contract that either NTL or Telewest had with Orange, possibly, that pre-dates the Virgin rebrand. Or else your tech may have been a contractor from Kelly, who do a lot of work for VM but are not employees of VM. Kelly Communications may have its own contract with Orange to supply mobile phones to staff.
