There actually is no deal. This is all just an elaborate prank on you. We're all in on it including Vodafone.

Anyone return an online order instore successfully? I was told on chat yesterday I could return instore but I had messaged them on Facebook before this and they have eventually replied just now to say I have to post it back. Who is right?

You need to get the secondary order number from Vodafone tracking page using the order number starting with "o" and your email.

Where it says your order is dispatched you will see an other order number there, its 8 digit number.

Then go here:

http://www.fonua.com/orderstatus/default.asp

Put in the above order number and it will bring up full details including link to tracking with An Post.

Also for those who have theirs at due for dispatch can also be tracked here. They will say "packing" so once you get to that stage you are good.

Took me a while to find this post from dan786. Very useful info on how to track the phone shipment.

So you cant order on the same details.

Try again with diff name, address, and email address.

Once you are blocked as Fraud on their system it will auto cancel again.

I only have one billing address but tried different delivery addresses? Also only have one sim to port from? Name i assume has to match payment card?

Not necessarily no.

Change billing address somewhere else - card companies dont need this to match the card.
New email address
New name,

same sim card to port is fine

It's only when you open the permissions manager do you realise just how many apps request location access all the time instead of when in use. It's ridiculous.

After seeing this I said I'd have a look, the amount of apps I had given permissions for things that are irrelevant to them working was ridiculous

billing and delivery address (or name) does not have match the billing address or name of the card that you pay with.

I can verify this as went through on an order that was successful for me.

I would definitely change up as many details as possible email, name, address etc from your failed orders.

Wheety · 03-12-2019 6:46pm

Mine arrived today. Cheers OP. Got it for €179. Only ordered on Thursday.

Yamanoto · 03-12-2019 8:34pm

Thanks OP

Ordered early yesterday & phone arrived today. Sorry to see quite a few others have found the whole process considerably less straightforward.

Would be great to understand how they are choosing what ports are ok. We went in store and picked up a p30 lite and ported no problem from Tesco. Bit of a joke!

Tesco Is no more listed for porting options seriously? No wonder they cancelled my Sunday Order. I had ported with Tesco option. Now they removed Tesco.

They left out number 5. We reserve the right to randomly cancel orders based on our random number generator

emy · 03-12-2019 9:36pm

I really want to switch to Vodafone, but it seems that the eir is rejecting porting, both sim cards were rejected. Vodafone customer rang me advising to ring up the eir to have the porting done by them.
What is happening now if the switch to Vodafone is not done? We have to send them back to Vodafone? They are going to chase us?

Nice, may actually get one as a present for an existing Vodafone customer yet if Eir ever send out a SIM card. Ordered another one yesterday as they never sent out the previous one I ordered.
I'd bet the Adverts sellers with multiple handsets available are loving the above news. No harm and could deem it similar to ticket scalpers.

I'd recommend ordering 48 SIMs. Get a few so you'll have one to hand the next time an offer like this comes up. That's what I did (used an unactivated 48 SIM I had lying around to get the P30 lite).

The_B_Man · 04-12-2019 10:12am

Got this earlier:

We are unable to process your order at this time due to order criteria limitations. All charges have been refunded to your credit card.

Raging.

I wonder would I get away with it in-store?

commited · 04-12-2019 10:14am

Only a €40 discount in store!

The_B_Man · 04-12-2019 10:18am

OK fair enough.

I suppose I was using a Tesco SIM. I just ordered a 48 SIM now, so I'll try again in a day or two.

Weyhey · 04-12-2019 11:09am

5th time....... lucky!!!! yay!!! Well possibly lucky. Fonua says 'despatched' and vodafone says 'due for dispatch'.

This time I used an eir sim instead of tesco and changed my email and billing address. Thank you to op and everyone else for their help and advice.

raytaxi · 04-12-2019 11:14am

I have phone since monday, port was to go thru yesterday from GoMo. No service since yesterday and still waiting for it to activate sim says not active for voice. Wondering who is at fault for not porting, was on to GoMo and they don't have anything on system yesterday shop said port in progress and they can't see more.

theintern · 04-12-2019 11:49am

Ordered yesterday with a brand new Eir sim, dispatched the same day and according the the tracking number I got from Fonua, will get it today. No issues here thankfully, a great deal.

Markcheese · 04-12-2019 11:59am

Mine just arrived in the post, ordered it Monday night, haven't turned it on yet... Ported onto an eir sim..

Highcontrast1 · 04-12-2019 1:12pm

bit of an aside - anyone manage to move all their data from ios to the pixel? managed to move some except whatsapp

dan786 · 04-12-2019 1:15pm

Posting this again so people can track it properly. Once your order changes from your payment is being processed to anything else, ie Order being processed, due for dispatch, dispatched, you can use the method below to track it from there on as it is more accurate than Vodafone site.

You will need to get the secondary order number from Vodafone tracking page using the order number starting with "o" and your email.

Here: https://www.vodafone.ie/df/assistance/track/Track.shtml

You will see an other order number there, its 8 digit number.

Then go here:

http://www.fonua.com/orderstatus/default.asp

Put in the above order number and it will bring up full details including link to tracking with An Post if its been dispatched. If the order is accepted and processed it will show as "Packing".
