Mobile Contract Deals & Offers

I think they were talking about setting up their actual MyVodafone account, not the VeryMe Rewards part(which did take a number of days to become accessible for me too) (y)

Sorry my mistake, You have to wait 4 days

You cmt set it up yourself, pls call Vodafone nd they’ll set it up for you over the phone. Don’t need to wait 8 days either (highfive)

I had a very interesting experience and here’s my story: ordered the gold XS MAX 256gb by accident (lol) wanted a space grey. i was accepted for that deal then realised what I had done so ordered another as space gray... i then emailed and got the gold cancelled then soon later they both declined because I already have a Vodafone contract which stopped like years ago plus with these 2 I had 2 credit checks done and Vodafone declined them due to fraud concerns. i then called Vodafone and they gave me an account number to give for only one contract when in the end I actually wanted to keep both. So have the account number which only gave me one contract as Vodafone said I could only get one.. now Oe from the 26th feb till tomorrow I will receive my second phone! So managed to get both contracts when told I can only get one. Gold cane first and was brand new. Awaiting the space gray and got one contract up and running (awaiting port of number) tbh I was in no rush as I still had my contracts from prior which are due to finish now funny enough so perfect timing. Called once and was only on the phone for max 35 mins and feel this whole deal was worth it. absolute bargain and truth be told, I would do it again. anyone have questions feel free to ask me :)

I might port the number first as that’s happening tomorrow so it’s probably worth me getting it set up with that number :)

So, I just rang them about this as I'm currently on a 6GB Unlimited text 1000 minute plan and wanted to upgrade and pay less. They said they couldn't find the £10 6.5GB Unlimited text and minutes plan (I'm a Plusnet Fibre customer) so they said they would upgrade me to 8GB instead for £10 :) Chuffed.

Standard deal not a black Friday deal had this before

Unfortunately it doesn't

Does the data roll over with them

Yeah been meaning to switch my dad to someone!!

hmm, I think I know what I need for Christmas already!

No idea where the idea came from that a kid would use *less* data!

Yeah that's true but you have ported your number to say Vodafone then your doing a port from Vodafone back to ID. If you were to take a new I'd mobile contract you cannot port from I'd to I'd that's how they change for upgrading

Is it locked to the network?

This needs to be expired or updated the cost has gone up to tje cheapest tarrif being 23.99/month with 29.99 upfront

Still on offer as of today

Actually they kinda do as Superdrug is owned by A. S. Watson Group which in turn is owned by CK Hutchinson Holdings which is the owner of Three UK. What network are they using for Superdrug Mobile?................Oh right.............

I concur.

You are all very lucky to have such choice! Can only get a signal from 02 where I live, left after 15 years & took a contract with Tesco, who use 02 line. Started cheap, has gone up, only get 500 mb data ..& 2 year contract! Another year to go also phone is rubbish!

Three, Superdrugs and Savers are part of the same group

for anyone reading this for information in the future, always go for O2 over Vodafone. They accept cancels within 14day cool down period like they should. Had two phones from CPW with £100 off with a 12m O2 sim and then cancelled the sim immediately. Happy days.

Just an update my chip was cancelled. I just called again no need for an excuse they are already aware of the CPW deal so just say that you only need the phone so your cancelling within the 14 day cooling period.

They have upped the price - now it's 209 plus the vodafone 15.5.

Being able to cancel SIM within cooling period is a consumer right. There should not be luck and patience needed here. Vodafone is simply peddling lies on CS and asking people to go to CPW instead while the actual SIM only contract is with Vodafone. This a non deal as "luck" or "lottery" is needed for it to work.

For anyone struggling to get Vodafone to cancel I'd suggest using their online chat or simply hanging up to try another advisor. It's a bit of a lottery but trying at different times may help. If you do so within the first 14 days you should be able to get avoid being charged the £15.50 fee (which is only chargeable after 1 month with Vodafone and not at point of sale). Patience and persistence needed.

This deal is also available in the variant of: Same allowance - 4GB/month £22/month Zero upfront £55 auto-cashback. I've just ordered it :-) (Going through topcashback the same deal was £25/month)

Like viaopup says about going through Quidco, the same thing happens when going via Top Cashback. Looks like you can't have the Affordable Mobile's cashback, combined with either Quidco or Top Cashback. So you can't have your cake and eat it.

Tempted...which is better p20 lite this?

Edit: Cashback tracked through TCB - £31.50. Therefore bringing it down to £429.50 I really don't get why this is really going cold :/ It comes through your bank account within 99 days. Last time it took about two weeks for me.

They could have, but what I'm saying is they can't seek compensation if it was you that misled them, by accident or otherwise

Added more info to my post. For all I knew it was a genuine (great) deal. Turned out I was misinformed and I've done all I can to sort it. I know it's annoying, apologies.

Why would I trick people? This isn't some conspiracy. I was told by an EE representative that it was a free add-on, I have attached the screenshot in my post. I'm on a Max plan at the moment so I don't need it and didn't try it, but it seemed like a great deal. If it was genuine, it would be a great deal, wouldn't it? That's why I posted. It turned out I'd been misinformed by the EE rep. It's embarrassing and I wish I'd never posted the deal. I expired the post and did all I could to provide info. What more am I supposed to do? I suggested that people who had been charged seek compensation because if I had been misinformed, anyone else could have been too.

Why not to contact EE customer services and ask them to add it for free, just explain that you been good customer and 9 out of 10 they will do it, except some mean d-i-c-k h-e-a-d-s or p-r-i-c-k-s on web chat, who like to remove all the loyalty discounts (happened to me in past and added back on via phone)

Alright so people got screwed, did you get free btsport can someone get the app and check

I spoke to Talkmobile hoping to upgrade to this today. The advisor seemingly acknowledged that the offer had been on before but that it had finished last week. Best they could do me (as an upgrade at least) was 10gb @ £13/month or £16.25/month for 20gb (i.e. 35% off the equivalent Vodafone plans).

Anyone know what the timeframe is on this? Are TM still taking customers? I'm currently a Vodafone SIM only contract customer, so the obvious thing to do would be to swap over to TM to get locked in on the better deals on the migration back to VF...

Is this still a current offer does anyone know? When you click on get deal it takes you to the talk mobile website but only shows ....."sim only deals from £5 per month" i spoke to them today before seeing this and they offered me SIMI - £12 month - 12GB data, 5000 mins, 5000 text (mad)

Beej93 - I see the logo for your deal has changed to Talk Mobile. Thank you for sorting out the confusion. £9.50/mo for that bundle seems like pretty good value (especially as it seems like a general deal for Talk Mobile customers and you don't have to faff around with cashback). Have some heat! It hasn't helped the confusion that Talk Mobile (on Vodafone) and TalkTalk Mobile (on O2) are simultaneously shutting down and offering deals directly with their carriers! Hope your deal recovers and thanks for posting!

I have a SIMO service with TalkTalk Mobile, which I got for free by being a broadband customer. They've been warning their customers for a few months that they are shutting down their mobile operations (they are a MVNO running on O2). My TalkTalk Mobile service definitely uses O2 and they've now offered me a discounted SIMO deal directly with O2. I'll have to pay for it (rather than being free) but it's a good price for a low usage customer like myself. Might you be confusing Talk Mobile and TalkTalk Mobile? https://www.which.co.uk/news/2018/01/talktalk-mobile-to-close-what-are-your-options/

Also iD offer Wifi calling which is a big plus I find

My point was are plusnet getting the full EE coverage or a water down version.

I have a 30day rolling contract with them and went for £7 2.5gb to £10 8gb mentioning that I had seen the ID mobile offer. I could have pushed it a bit harder but 8gb is enough of data for me.

I run an EE SIM and i.d and find more 4g coverage then I do with i.d and I have them on me all the time.

They used to share with orange but not now.

Did you try complaint chat ? Did you ask to swap mins for data ?

£10 a month for unlimited minutes & texts, 4gb data

what plan were you on and for how much ?

Tried over chat 4 times for about 30 mins each time to no avail. On the phone was even worse, so I’ve left for the virgin 24gb deal. More money than I hoped to spend, but better 4g signal at least. Three were obsessed with my data usage being below 2gb on average, even after I explained that I have a new job that doesn’t provide WiFi so my data requirement is about to increase drastically. Doesn’t seem to me that three’s retention team really retain many customers, tbh. :/

OK, cheers. My contract is up for renewal today, so I can give 30 days notice. Will try complaints chat over the weekend.

Glad to hear!

Just got the deal from phoning Sky on 0800. they will "beat" the £55 possible Quidco by doing the £5 data (and UL mins / UL texts) for £3....therefore £13 p.m. for 24 then £12 p.m. for 6 (then the phone is yours to keep).

Still a good deal....brand new iPhone SE (32gb) with 500mb (rolls over) / UL minutes / UL texts for all Sky Customers (6m for non-Sky), £55 Quidco & Free return Euro-flights....at an affordable £15p.m.....not bad, i agree with OP (highfive) The catch appears to be that you either have to do the 24m SWAP (£54 cashback for your iPhone SE) OR keep for 30m and keep phone(?). (nerd)

Check the details, it is a 30 month interest free loan on the phone excluding line rental.

That's a worrying number of negative reviews for sure. What I would say is that I can only speak from experience, same as your good self, when I say that I've personally not had an issue with them. I'd also say that the angriest people are the ones who tend to flock to review sites like Trustpilot. All that being said, not a great rating overall and concerning.

https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.plus.net I'll be adding to those reviews shortly. I tried to cancel again today, this time asked me 5 level 2 security questions, one of which was when my DD is paid (I had my statement in front of me) and she told me it's incorrect. I said I'd simply cancel my DD with the bank, she threatened they will continue to take payments and it will affect my credit history. I have nothing but contempt for them now. Companies with reviews that awful should not be able to astroturf on HUKD.

Never ever had that issue with Plusnet when I've left in the past. They've always been responsive and never questioned me on it.

You have to call them and discuss it over the phone. They may have cottoned on to the glitch now too.

Plusnet intentionally make it impossible for you to cancel mobile deals. Look it up. I discovered this when I was on the phone for 40 minutes only to get through at 8:05 to tell me cancellation team is closed. Funny how all other teams are open till 10PM. Currently with ID mobile and Tesco, never had a single problem. Plusnet = Never Again.

1gb was £24 on 24 months

Not cheap even after 250 cashback. Bought 1gb plan moto G6 today but When i called EE to cancel they offered far better deal on my SIMO contract. So I returned Vodafone handset within 2 hrs and cancelled order. Had no confidence on 250 cashback.

Any Good deals found?? Can't really see anything!

Quoted from TCB: "How does it work? Cashback is available on new phone contracts; upgrades are not eligible.For contract sales, commission will only be paid if the customer did not return their device within the first 30 days, and has paid their first bill." Do you guys understand that after the first payment the cashback should be tracked already?

Good to know Cashback is available on Pre-Order Phone contracts.

The £10 plan currently has bonus 1GB so 4GB in total not sure how long they will offer bonus though. Still think they are not that competitive but do not want to be stuck in a contract so will stay out as long as signal strong in area. The £15 going to 8GB and £7.50 to 2GB are the only good parts of the new pricing but heat UP for heads up and some will save including me some months.

Well pleased when I got the email from them. Been on the £7.50 a month deal for a while and had been pushing towards using my 1gb. So it's a good deal for me. I also understand lots of other providers have caught up with them with better deals. But not having to take up a rolling contract is the selling point for me. Think they may have missed a trick with the £10 deals. Think 4gb would be a fair deal in comparison to the £7.50 deal.

ID are doing 4gb for £8, rolling contract.

Heat for moving the right direction but with o2 3/2/1p rates GG pay should be matching - it doesn’t have a network to maintain, still Voxi 4GB £10 here with a ton of 8p roaming texts countries worldwide so now o2 you ain’t offered me enough yet. Good GG/Tesco are competing with o2 though, if you want to spend under £20 that’s the way to go!

Disappointed that still no WiFi calling with them. Though heat for these prices on pay and go
