If you have an existing mobile phone number with a provider other than Lycamobile/Vodafone you can walk in to a Vodafone store with this voucher and you can purchase the phones at the prices mentioned provided you switch from your current provider to Vodafone. Looking at the small print you also need to topup by €20 at the time of purchase.

The phones are likely locked to Vodafone and so will only accept a Vodafone SIM until they are unlocked.

You have to have a Clubcard with them to receive it in the post. If you don't have one perhaps a friend has received one they are not going to use.

Does anyone know if you get a new prepay sim from meteor can you port it over to Vodafone straight away or do you have to have spent a certain amount of credit? My dad is already a Vodafone prepay customer but would love to get this phone

You can get a SIM from any provider except Lycamobile and use the number to port over. Shouldn't be any need to have topped up or spent a certain amaount.

Once you get the phone you can use any Vodafone SIM in it but the €70 top up credit will only go to the ported number.

You could port your dads number to Meteor (or whoever) and then port back immediately AFAIK.

Just be aware that they usually call the number being ported to check it's an active number or if your buying online they send a code by text IIRC.

What you should do is get a 48 sim, use that sim to get ported over to Vodafone, you have to top up by 20 euro first and 10 will then be added sometime after, you have to top. You have to top up by 20 euro every month to get 10 euro free credit, max 70 euro to be got

Here is the trick, with vodafone you can send credit from vodafone number to another, max is 40 euro i think in 8 days, by texting "send (your dads number) 20" if you want to send 20 euro.

Doing it this way your Dad will get to keep his own number.

Anyone see anywhere unlock codes can be got online can't find any on ebay?

There's no mention in the Ts & Cs but I'd imagine the €70 free credit would be along the lines of €10 each month you top-up by €20 as with previous such offers.

Anyone know if I sign up for the Dunnes club card today, will I get the Vodafone voucher?

I wonder whats the connection between Vodafone and Lycamobile?

Perhaps Vodafone assumed that Lyca were the only free SIM providers and didn't want people taking advantage in just getting the free SIM and immediately switching.

Would appreciate one as well if any one has one they are not using, the mother has value club card but didn't get voucher, it would suit her looking for a new phone.

Which is what I assume but there's nothing actually in the terms and conditions to that effect so one could legitimately expect to get it all in one go.

It'd be useful to hear from someone who's actually availed of the offer to hear what they've been told on the €70 free credit.

Got sorted!

anyone get the huawei and report back on it?

DopeTech

Asked on online chat for clarification in whether you get the €70 in one go. Was told no. You need to top up at time of purchase and the six following months. When pushed to show me where it said that in the terms and conditions, he smartly told me it was clearly there, pointing out that it says a top up of €20 is needed at time of purchase. I then pointed out that's not the same thing but it was like talking to a wall. He even tried to tell me that I was failing to see a * on the page. when I looked again there was still no *.

Really don't know whether to believe him or not because everything else coming out of his mouth was wrong.

Quackster

Yeah, last time I took advantage of one of these Vodafone Dunnes offers was the Smart 4 Turbo for €29.99 that came with €20 credit without mention of a topup being required.

However, I remember a lot of people at the time being forced to buy a €20 topup at time of purchase (not me though) and also the 'free' credit was not automatically added - I had to go chasing after them for it.

I think I'll pass on this and pass on my voucher to the first person that posted here looking for one that still needs one.

So that seems to be Satya. PM me your address if you still want it or if not I'll move on to the next person.

Got the Huawei. It's not that bad actually.the Android version is very light .don't expect a work horse and bear in mind it's only 1gb ram/8GB Rom of which almost half is taken up by the OS.

On the plus side, expandable memory and removable battery.even has fm radio

Haven't actually topped that number up yet but was told in store that it's staggered.so every time you top up by 20€ you get 10€, obviously then for the 7 times this happens. Designed I guess to keep you topping up by the 20

Slightly misleading advertising so. The flyer should state "up to 70euro topup" instead. Ah well it still may be use to some.
