    I had to go the Vodafone root to unlock it and even that's slow well over a week waiting.

    Still great bargain handy phone to have when at work.

    BUT then I remembered that until this Sunday Lidl are giving €10 free with every €30 PAYG credit purchased on Vodafone/Meteor/Three. :D

    Anyone tried to use a €10 off €50 voucher when buying call credit in Lidl?

    Jaysus, I thought I was bad... :D

    Compound discounting at it's finest. I know Tesco don't allow the vouchers to be used on phone credit; I suspect Lidl may have some sort of "Exclusions apply" let-out clause. Only one way to find out, really...

    Thanks lads, I'll bring the phone with me.
    I've no intention of using the 3 sim in the new phone, a working/current Vodafone chip will be used in it.
    Hopefully they don't insist on me buying the €20 top up.

    Brought the phone with me, the guy at the counter asked for the number of the sim but never rang it to see if it was active, unless they have another way of checking.
    Got the phone no hassle, he told me to call back to the store in an hour or so when the sim activated so I could sort out topping up with call credit, I never went back. ;)

    can this be put in the fon in 6 weeks time, or has it to be put in the fone today


  • Registered Users Posts: 393 ✭✭barneyrub


    So we've decided to get this and put away for child for Cmas. Last minute of course. Have someone keeping a voucher for us but is tomorrow the last day or is Tuesday? Where's best to get a free SIM from other network? Thanks

    Bought the phone credit and some other things with a Lidl voucher no probs! Top-up can be applied any time until voucher expiry (12 months I think) and you will get the €40 credit.

    Where's best/easiest to get a free sim at this stage?


  • Registered Users Posts: 82 ✭✭Keithmc40

  • Registered Users Posts: 323 ✭✭deisediva


    Think I will pick this up tomorrow have the voucher thought it wasn't up for another week. Have a tesco sim never used do the shop ring this and will I be able to just buy phone with no credit ?

    I am also hoping to pick one up today, from what I've read on this thread so far the porting number doesn't need to be topped up beforehand and you don't need to buy credit in store.

    The only problem I now have is whether the expiration date is today or yesterday as the t&cs on the Vodafone site state before 15th September.
