    Hi folks,

    I need a new phone and I am an IFA member.

    The website is not clear what exactly is offered, but states a potential saving of €204 per year.

    Has anyone availed of this discount/offer?

    Thanks deep south west

    Who do I go to, to avail of the discount, do I go into a vodaphone store and just produce my IFA card and they apply the discount, or do I have to contact the IFA to avail of it?

    Vodafone is desperate the last year. Coverage is like what meteor was when it first started out. I'm on a 35e a month bill. The Ifa offer isn't much good to me. Dunno bout Ifa Vodafone deal, but with the Ifa landline offer the customer service is brutal. And be careful ringing the 1890 numbers, they're premium charged numbers.

    am with three.ie on business plan 25 euro each phone per month (need minimum 2 phones on plan). unlimited everything. moved from vodafone which was costing between 55 and 100 a month for each phone, now have wife, my mother and my phone on one bill and dearest bill was 85 for all 3 phones. that includes a bit extra for international calls. funny enough my phone bill is still the same. coverage is good. and if there is problems you get put through to waterford call centre as its for business plans. ordinary private customers get the pleasure of there indian call centre

    Meteor network is now very good. Probably best in the country right now.
    Very good deals available on combination of talk and data.
    If you own a smart phone outright and don't have to get into a contract which gives you a phone, then you should be well able to get an all in voice and data contract for max €25 month.
    There is absolutely no need whatsoever for anybody (even a heavy user) to be shelling out any more than that per month.
    Check it out.
    No connection to meteor by the way. Equal deals available from other networks.

    Would I be right in saying that most of these great deals are based on no supply phone or if they do it is NOT an up to date model.
    If your looking for the iphone 6 or galaxy 5 it appears you lock in for 24 months and then low purchase price for high end bill pay and high purchase price phone with low end bill pay. In respective of tesco and possible others can you keep your number? I enquired recently and was informed I couldnt use my existing number which was occuptional susicide!!!!!!! So therefore you could possible get a cheap deal unlike the "conventional " if that suits you. Was I incorrect re tesco?
    By the way I agree with the comment of vodafone that there coverage is poor and gettin worse. I have even got a sure signal box and that breaks down / stop more often than its going, remind me to contact them again on Monday morn!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 936 ✭✭✭st1979


    completely wrong re losing your old number. You must of got an idiot. you can keep your old number no problem. It's called porting when they change over from old to new number. yes these good deals are for similar only deals with Three.ie. so I buy my phone wherever I can get it cheapest as a ready to go type phone. And if it's network locked I just pay 10 euro on ebay for the code to Un lock it. I am saving 50 euro per month at least on my phone and same with wife's. It actually makes you more sensible about getting the latest model handset. I used to always get new model at end of contract with Vodafone. now I just get unlimited texts to anyone in ireland unlimited data unlimited phone calls to mobiles of any network unlimited phone calls to and land line in ireland. The only thing I pay for is picture texts and international calls
