Orange UK skype over wifi

Is anyone using Skype on an Orange UK iphone.

I'm just trying to establish whether i would be able to use Skype over wifi before purchasing one.

Read some reports that it’s barred and the sales reps in the Orange store would only confirm that Skype is not supported.

Mac Mini, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

I have an iPhone 4 on Orange UK, and Skype works perfectly over wifi, which is hardly surprising as anything over wifi is not carrier-dependent. However, using Skype over 3G is another story. Orange's 3G bandwidth is so low at times, sometimes as slow as dial-up, that you can't hear what each other are saying on a Skype call. Chatting over 3G usually works fine though, given the much lower bandwidth requirement.
