*working?* Free Orange Wednesday 2for1 cinema without an Orange account (if you have an iPhone/iPod Touch)

**Grant (in the comments) suggests this is still working
*They have sadly fixed this, next cheapest way would be to get a £1 Orange sim card and register that number in the app

Been using this one since November but will post it up here now :)

This does NOT require an Orange account, just a device that can run the 'Orange Weds' app from the Apple app store. It also doesn't charge for the ticket, like it does via the more traditional 'text message ticket' on Orange phones.

  1. Install the 'Orange Weds' app
  2. Inside the app, select '241'
  3. Enter the phone number 079(another 8 digits) e.g.  '07912345678'
  4. username: smith.orangehome.co.uk
  5. select '241' again, 'get my 2 for 1 ticket'
  6. then, 'I haven't used 2 for 1 before'
  7. Bingo, free code :)
