fuck paper mail, that'll take ages. I'm just going to write another email.
I know the answers won't appear here, same way talking about lunch won't stop me from being hungry, I'm just talking about whats on my mind.

start by asking to add a note of explanation to your credit report
any prospective credit card/other loan company will then see that it is a disputed claim and that it is very low value. this should help in the short term whilst you argue with orange to get it removed.

I'm not actually that bothered about the credit at the moment
You can check your credit reports for free now (sign up for 12 months first month free then cancel) so I was doing it, but it's the principal *slams fist on table*

YOU have principles?
this really is worthy of its own thread.

but you should sort it out now. something that stupid can stop you getting a mortgage, even if it's in a few years time. ironically orange itself has advice on its website about how to get a good credit rating. start by quoting that at them, i would have a lot of fun writing to them if i were you.

Paper mail is the only way to
get it sorted from past experience. Sorry I even considered giving you any advice.

It just struck me as being rather impolite. Why not put it in it's own thread?

My threads are top quality gold,
