How do you get past the 'switching' to vodafone' question, if you don't want to?

You use a sim that is not your main one. i.e. get a free one from eir or 48. Put sim in a phone. Order from vodafone using new sim number. They'll text it during process with a code to ensure number is real. Complete purchase. Get new phone (if they dont cancel). Phone may be locked to Vodafone and if it is you'll need to network unlock it.

Well you can only get this deal by switching. Otherwise pay full price and sign up as new customer. Get a throwaway sim

An order I placed yesterday with an Eir sim got cancelled this morning it seems..

questionmark

Spoke to live chat about my order saying cancelled, this was their reply

" Thank you for your patience your order status is to be cancelled. It is got cancelled due to our technical glich in our system & this order is at to be cancelled state so we need to escalate thsi to our concern team to put this order at cancel state and it would would get at cancel state within 72 hours and once this order will get cancelled state we will refund your payment for this order and your will get your refund within 3-5 working days"

once this order will be at cancelled state you can place the new order form your side so I would request you to wait for 72 hours. It would be on cancel state within 72 hours.

Money has been gone from my account for days

Live chat told me my order was cancelled. No email about it. Rubbish IT systems.

Ordered a €40 A21s last night with the intention of returning the €90 one I bought last week but I better hold off just in case. I deselected all communications so unlikely to get a dispatch or cancellation notification......

Truly the dogs dinner of dogs dinners

Trying to register for an account to check the order status is a pain too. It sends the email a 6 digit authorisation code but it takes about an hour to arrive, and at that stage when you input it it's already expired. A joke.

Order for white went through...shows shipping ID etc so I am hopeful it wont be cancelled !

Just contact their live chat. I couldn't register either but I gave them the order number and they were able to give me a shipping ID and anpost tracking. Mines out for delivery today.(ordered Friday evening)

Presumably there was no issues with refunds, etc?

I always paid via Revolut, it was mostly reverted after 5 days, some were not, I contacted support on Revolut and took 30 second to revert the funds every time.

Ah fair enough! I used a credit card just in case there was any issues, so should be handy enough to get a refund if it doesn't come through in a week or so.. Thanks!

If you mean when ordering a sim from Eir, 48 etc., the phone number is just for the postman.
