Try-it-Before-You-Buy-it Psychic Readings at Oranum

Oranum doesn’t offer special discounts for new customers, but they are the only major psychic reading service to offer live video chat, including free chat with all psychics so you can get to know them before committing to a reading. Think of it as a sort of test drive.

Oranum used to offer randomly selected demo readings every half hour, but recently stopped the practice. It was a mixed bag — if you were lucky enough to be chosen for a free reading, great. But if not, you ended up in crowded chat room with a bunch of rude people texting during a reading and so many people it would often freeze up the psychic’s chat.

It’s still a great way to get to know psychics, but don’t expect them to answer your questions for free — you’ll have to buy a private session for details. But some Oranum advisors will occasionally draw one card for you in free chat. It can be quite entertaining just to chat, depending on the reader. I recommend Countess Starella for her sunny personality and ecelctic costumes!

Live FREE Chat with Psychics

Their Promise

Getting a clear answer on their guarantee policy is like pulling teeth. I couldn’t find it on the site, and live customer support first gave me the policy link that doesn’t have the info. When asking customer support directly, I was told sometimes you can get a refund. After dodging my direct questions about whether it was an actual refund or credit for another reading, I finally pinned down the rep to clarify that it is credit only. Sheesh! These things should be disclosed clearly and up front.

Psychic Selection

• All Oranum psychics are screened and tested before being allowed to work on the site, unlike some other sites who simply offer a platform for independent psychic reader contractors.
• There isn’t a great filtering search engine for psychics, so it’sa bit hit and miss finding a good match.
• The free psychic chat offers a great opportunity to get to know different advisors before commiting to a reading.
• Live chat adds a social element to Oranum, allowing readers a more personal connection.

Psychic Reading Pricing

• Oranum psychics set their own rates. Unfortunately, most don’t say their rates on their information wall, so you often have to ask their rate directly, which is a bit awkward.
• Oranum advisors sometimes run specials and discounts independently, as Oranum rarely offers discounts.
  
• Oranum has now set up a way to “tip” psychics in three pricing structures: Coffee (1 credit), Beer (5 credits), or Lunch (10 credits).
• Psychics at Oranum can also set up premium content you can subscribe to for access. There are four pricing tiers the advisor can choose from: .99 credits monthly, 4.99, 9.99, 14.99.
