A friend of mine had a similar problem with his iphone. When he sent text messages to other iphones using imessaging, it came up with a completely different number. He actually got so fed up with it that he stopped using imessaging (Orange didn't have a clue).

Then when I was trying to get imessaging and facetime working on my wifes phone, I noticed something in the settings. You can enter the number that it sends as a caller ID.

Now I don't know what phones you have, or if this is the solution, but it's worth a try.
