Orange Accidentally Charges Users For Their Own MMS Spam

Oops. Orange is admitting they messed up and is refunding fees to many of their users who they charged for an MMS that Orange themselves sent, to tout the nice features of their MMS service. As you might imagine, those who received the promotional message and were then charged for it were not particularly happy about it. Orange also sent out a text message apology, which (one hopes) they did not charge for.
