10,000 Pigsback with 'every' purchase on Vodafone Home or Mobile Broadband?

kn

Well the blurb says 'every' purchase so taking them at their word you could get effectively €100 of Pigsback vouchers (that can be redeemed against megadeals or rewards etc) for buying the €29.99 stick modem for mobile broadband!

Or am I missing something?

Shop Now with Vodafone and earn 10,000 PiggyPoints with every purchase made on Home or Mobile broadband.

PS the terms and conditions do state that the offer covers prepaid mobile broadband!!

It looks good.

However the "Buy Now" link just links to Vodafone.ie.

I went through to the checkout and there is no indication its link to Pigsback.ie
So I'm unsure how Pigsback know to apply the piggy-points.

Its 10,000 points or the equivalent of €100 in vouchers. So spend €30 on the broadband stick (and chuck it in the bin, give it away, or use it etc) and get €100 of pigsback.com vouchers. The 10,000 points can be redeemed online against megadeals or rewards. So online at the moment it will pay for a 2 night hotel break for 2 or 20 Xtravision rental vouchers and so on.......

Sorry if this is a stupid question, I am not overly familiar with mobile broadband, but would you have to sign up to a monthly contract? Jut wondering if that is the catch?

Also just looking at the T&C, so maybe you could get the pre pay?

No. Going by the terms and conditions it explicitly states that it includes prepaid mobile broadband.

I'd keep a copy of those terms of conditions just in case they disappear later on. No sign of the "full terms and conditions" on vodafone website either.......

Looks as if its one of either a) 10,000 points was put up in error rather than 1000 or b) they spotted the thread or a pattern of purchasing behaviour and only then recognised that the offer was open to 'abuse'!

sweetie

wonder will they weasel out or honour the people who booked it? I should have pulled the trigger yesterday but work browser was giving me jip.

Btw I've heard of people using pigsback vouchers and later being able to claim the 70% refund aswell!

I never saw it on the 'Vodafone' website. Are you sure you are not referring to the Pigsback link page?
