Apparently I'm Being Talked About?

I've always kindve been awkward. Like you know that shy guy or girl that only talks to their close friends and can be loud or quiet depending on the day? Is protective of their feelings and laughs everything off? Yeah that's me.
Middle school was an EXTREMELY awkward time for me and I drastically changed once a month. I'm not a freshman. Lately I had my iPhone SMASHED to pieces and dealt with drama because the girl who did it was avoiding me and talking about me, yet she did it on accident and I shouldn't have over reacted (Well if you just had somebody hand you a iPhone smashed and not tell you the story you'd be livid.) So I'm at lunch and I'm talking and the girl who's still my friend goes "You're always talked about, but with the iPhone thing you were the only one people talked about. I mean only the screen broke."
My hand was cut up and the touch on the phone broke and I wasn't sure if my warranty covered that because we got a cheap one (One that covers defects from the factory)
But why would I be talked about? Because of drama last year or the phone thing? I'm not mean, in fact I'm too passive to be mean. I'm more of the person who can get excited with their friends but when I'm near other people I tense up and I just am quieter and a bit cold (I'm often described with a German personality by adults) I usually can hide my feelings well and I try to not express them in school, but it's like what could people be saying?

Tips for preserving iPhone 4S battery?

IPhone isn't telling me when someone's read my message?

How to cancel my Orange contract with unpaid bills?

I went to America in January this year. When I returned, there was a huge data roaming charge on my phone bill, totally nearly £200, even though prior to my trip, I purchased a data-roaming package
for £25.

Orange claimed that I used 25MB (beyond the allotted 30MB), at £8 per megabyte.

I dispute this fact. I paid £100 but would prefer not to pay the rest.

The Orange customer care is very unhelpful. They've terminated my service due to unpaid bill.

However, my charges seems to continue accruing.

I'd like to terminate my relationship with Orange and go to another company.

However, Orange claims that I have to pay all the outstanding bills, and also £75 to terminate the contract.

I think this is blackmail.

Also complicating the situation is that my phone (an iPhone) is bought through Orange. I believe it's locked, so I can't go to another company.

Basically I'm stuck here:
(1) My phone doesn't work
(2) I'm being charged for service not provided
(3) I can't go to another phone company

What can I do in this situation?

I think I can get the phone unlocked in some shop. Then I can sign up with another phone company.

But then, will Orange charge me for unprovided service till eternity?

Does anyone know if iPhone 5 model A1429 is unlocked? Meaning I could use it on another network?
Thank you in advance. I tried looking it up, but keep getting mixed answers.

Do I have to remove SIM card before selling my iphone 5?

I did the "Erase all memory and settings" option but I was going to sell an iphone 5 to a friend of mine and I was wondering if I had to remove the SIM card first. I wouldn't want any texts or anything going through to his but I also wasn't sure if the hard reset erased the number and everything associated with the SIM as well.
