    Oh really? That's great. Will it lock to the first sim you put in?

    Ordered mine on the 3rd but never received it. Seems to have been cancelled now and showing in out of stock so assume no hope of getting one now? So annoying as others have received it since.

    Delisted from site now, so probably completely finished. Waiting here like a fool since Monday for the Eir sim to arrive.

    That's not true, but it is true that these ones from Vodafone are all unlocked. :)

    If you still have the Eir voucher, I'd be delighted!

    It was in my basket from yesterday so I just continued with the purchase. Of course it doesn't ask you to confirm details before you buy, and it had forgotten the code I entered yesterday and charged me €229 :( I don't fancy my chances of contacting anyone at Vodafone so I just tried again with the code and used a different card. Might get 2 phones, might get both orders cancelled. Lets see.

    Of the two orders I placed yesterday, guess which one has an an post tracking reference and which one is in 'submitted' limbo?

    :(

    The worst part is, I bought the discounted phone using my email address and registered on vodafone.ie no problem. There was even a 'cancel' option for the order. So I tried creating an account for the full price one to cancel that (I had used my girlfriend's email address for that one) but it just wouldn't send a 6-digit security number in time...

    ...until today, after the phone is shipped.

    Unlikely they are SIM free. I know someone who had a Vodafone iPhone 7 and just received an upgrade. Put a GoMo SIM in it today and it said invalid SIM.

    Looks like my order for a Pixel 3a has gone through.

    When they were all gone a few days ago, I picked up the Huawei P30 Lite. Camera is quite poor on it and so I want to return that and refund. Has anyone successfully returned an online VF phone purchase?

    I was told previously that I'd have to post a phone back to them by registered post. Mine was still sealed in the box. I'd had such a bad time dealing with their customer service that I didn't believe I'd get my refund though and ended up keeping the phone.

    Same as - my order on 1st Aug got cancelled but managed to get one yesterday.. They did seem to go in/out of stock and were listed/ delisted over last week - I’d keep checking..

    Thanks to Boards members - it was the post yesterday morning that notified me they were back!

    Those who got An Post tracking links, I got mine in the account page this morning, but no results show on An Posts site.

    Anyone else in same boat?

    Mine was delivered today. Seems like they rolled all my orders into one. Pending charges changed into one today also.

    It's very slippery phone. Wasn't charged, I don't think I've ever had a new phone that had no power when I opened the box before.

    I was expecting it to be cancelled.

    If anyone got two (or three or four or five!) for bargain basement €130 (with discount) and wants to sell it on, can PM me. WHO KNOWS? Perhaps it will be on sale again tomorrow or next day.

    I wonder how it rates versus an older flagship. Currently moving towards getting a 2018 Mi8 instead. Spent way too much time looking at this way too late! I wouldn't bother with iPhone 7 even if unlocked as can be purchased for less elsewhere, like 210 EUR on Amazon.DE excl. postage.
