About
The Orange GSM network was launched in the UK in 1994, and its well known advertising slogan “the future’s bright, the future’s Orange” became popular.
Owners France Telecom decided to merge with T-Mobile’s parent in 2009 to create the UK’s largest mobile operator with a market share of 37%. There was some resistance to this merger - the Office of Fair Trading asked the EU to investigate. With one or two provisos, the European Commission approved the merger and it went ahead in April 2010.
A parent company, EE, was created and this has had the effect of diluting the Orange and T-Mobile brands. All the high street stores have been rebranded ‘EE’ and most users see ‘EE’ on their screens as they are now using the EE network. Orange broadband has been rebranded EE, and Orange website visitors are now redirected to the main EE site.
