    Not sure if this is only for me (linked to my phone number), but I got a text from meteor saying I'm part of 'a select bunch, who can purchase a shiny new Nokia C3 for 49.99' The text gives me a code. Meteor website says it's 79.99 there - if I can pass this on to anyone in the market for that phone, gimme a shout!

    Can you send me the code please :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,775 ✭✭✭Fittle


    In the interest of fairness, I'll pm you all with the code and I imagine whoever purchases it first, will activate it.

    As I said, I'm not sure if the code is linked to my phone number or if it will work on its own, but I'll send it on anyway;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39 lou84


    thanks for that.

    Got the code myself by txt and the same code. :)

    Haha - what's the odds they reduce the cost of that phone for everyone on the 31st October;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 239 ✭✭Niveus Tauri


    does this code worked for anyone ?
    one of colleagues got the code as well but website is not accepting it :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,775 ✭✭✭Fittle


    Hi Niveus - I just got off the phone from meteor who said the code should work...when I told him it didn't work (I tried it myself there), he just kept saying 'well, it SHOULD'!!

    So I don't know what the story is! Unless you buy it in an actual shop with the code??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 76 ✭✭c_lady89


    Could you or anybody else that has it please PM it to me.:)

    Hi Fittle , jus spoke with Meteor store assistant , code not working in stores as their online shop and actual stores are kind of different from each other.
    You should be asking them to try code themselves , and when they will confirm that its not working, you could tell them 'well, it SHOULD'!! :)

    The meteor guy also told me that if he put me through to their sales department, it might work - but I wasn't buying a phone myself so I didn't - anyone want to try that?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,268 ✭✭✭✭uck51js9zml2yt


    can I have it too please


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,115 ✭✭✭Completionist


    If the code is the same for everyone then could anyone use it? o_O


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,775 ✭✭✭Fittle


    The meteor text says 'You are a select bunch' so I don't think all meteor customers got it, just us special ones;)

    I dunno if you need to login to meteor to avail of the code though

    Any pm replies I've gotten are telling me the code doesn't work.

    And I've tried it myself, and it doesn't work (I'm not buying a phone - just wanted to see if the code worked!)

    I'm not sure what meteor are playing at!!

    on the text i got it said available at meteor stores


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,425 ✭✭✭FearDark


    My code is gone lads.

    As far as I'm aware its a bricks and mortar store because it says something along the lines of "call instore for offers" or some-such. Its for the Nokia c3 which isn't a great phone at all, its actually kinda crap but the code is also for €30 off any smartphone so thats not so bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 76 ✭✭c_lady89


    can omeone please Pm me the code please.
    even if it doesnt work....just to see


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,023 ✭✭✭Canonfan


    I also would like a code, thank you in advance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 656 ✭✭✭keredern


    Would you mind PMing me the code too please! :o:)

    Thank you for posting!:D

    Same on mine - but when I rang customer services, he told me I couldn't buy it in one of their stores and had to purchase online...oh well!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭HoPpiE


    Can anyone pm me the code please?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,056 ✭✭✭✭BostonB


    It doesn't get a great feedback this phone. Did anyone get one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,192 ✭✭✭HungryJoey


    I got the text too.. I presumed it was a generic text sent to 50% of meteor customers :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,747 ✭✭✭Klingon Hamlet


    Can someone pm me the code please?:)

    My wife has one, it's rubbish. Poor, unresponsive touch screen which locks the phone up from time to time, dodgy microSD card reader etc. Has been repaired twice (once by Nokia and once by Vodafone repair) and I still don't have any confidence in it.

    But it's not a touchscreen phone, is it?? I thought it had that qwerty keyboard?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,402 ✭✭✭nxbyveromdwjpg


    It's an absolutely dire phone, end of life, hence they are getting rid of the stock
