Apparently this is not true, though I can't recall the word(s) it did rhyme with.

Orange does have an annoying habbit of 'dead areas' where you can't get a good signal, also the phone itself can affect how much of the signal it picks up. At work our reps have been using Orange though have had quite a bit of trouble, and are going to be switching to another company as a result.

Blorange.

Funnily enough, some of our Vodaphone handets were failing today, and O2 was suffering from "network busy" messages.

I wonder what's going on.

Virgin has been working hunky dory all day, infact better than usual. I even got a slight signal at work, which is unusual.

Blorenge is a place name, Lozenge is a half rhyme. If we're being technical :)

The other one was Gorringe, which is a surname, notably the surname of Stephen Fry's school tailor.
