That took a while to get :eek:

JamesRLS · 04-11-2020 10:17am

Finally got the code and ordered! Vodafone's Customer support on social media platforms is abysmal, twitter agents told me i was ineligible because i switched plans and therefore i was ineligible, which is utter nonsense, and facebook support agents told me i wouldnt be eligible because apparently i didnt make a call until the 29th, which is total BS! In my case the live chat team was the most helpful as they escalated my case and i got the code via text 2 days after they escalated my case

okidoki987 · 04-11-2020 3:26pm

No code yet so contacted Live Chat and got told to wait for up to 14 days from top up date.

, countdown started.

okidoki987 · 04-11-2020 8:14pm

Just received code and ordered

.

ThreeGreens · 04-11-2020 8:24pm

Just received my code and ordered now.

I registered my port (as soon as possible) on 23 October. On my account it shows the card issued on 24 Oct.
Got my sim card on 28 and topped up then and made calls/text same day.

Got my code this evening about 30 mins ago.

I ported from Eir.

Thank you Rizzee for bring this offer to my attention!

Ah-Watch · 04-11-2020 11:16pm

received a redemption code tonight after speaking to chat & fb today. When trying to go through the redemption it says the product in the basket isn't eligible but I'm certain it's the correct one. Frustrating as it's 3 weeks since porting in and topping up. Looks like it's going to be yet another attempt on chat

ThreeGreens · 04-11-2020 11:31pm

If it helps, this was the link that I was given to use to make the claim. You add the buds to the basked, and go to checkout and then put your code in.

Correct link

colm_mcm · 05-11-2020 5:11pm

Ported 23rd, got code today.

jamesd · 05-11-2020 9:50pm

Ported 23rd, told I was not entitled to code.

Ported from where?

jamesd · 05-11-2020 10:29pm

48, requested the port on the 16th but it didn't port until the Tuesday so I think that ruled me out.

48 was ruled out on the 16th I think it was but look back a few pages and
you will see the correct date.

watchman.ie · 06-11-2020 7:43am

Finally, got them ordered, ported the 15th, but over 2 hours on chat over the last 2 days, gave me the code through chat and not by text.

okidoki987 · 09-11-2020 6:53pm

Took 5 days from registering to get my hands on them.
Have to say excellent bit of kit, great sound, well worth €20

.

duffmagic · 10-11-2020 6:18pm

Stupidly didn't read the T&Cs and paid €20 and ported my Lyca Mobile sim.
€20 wasted unless the facebook support feel sorry for me.

Excluded:-
- Lyca
- Tesco
- 48

Seems a little underhanded excluding a large number of porters in the fine print.

Code received. Doesn't work.

Contact Vodafone direct and let them know.
If you did everything correctly, which you must have to get code, it must be something wrong with the actual code.

Which date did you apply to port, and which date did you eventually top up?

Quackster · 12-11-2020 12:48pm

Same happened me. Got on to them on Twitter and got a code that worked.

StaticNoise · 12-11-2020 10:12pm

Very strange. They're now claiming that I was to make a call, a text, and use data. This was never the case. It was receive a text, a call, or use data.

It's getting a bit fishy.
Still no code- earlier one was actually for a Vodafone X 'experience'- my mistake.

You had to make a call or text, I assume this was to prove you spent €20 on the top up.

According to Vodafone, and their Irish Based CS was very good, one possibility for not getting emails with the code was that when signing up people, like me, had selected no email promotion info in their contact preferences. The email with the code is regarded as a promotional email. The email code lasts just seven days and I found out on the 7th day. CS stayed with me to check that my code was still valid and it was. Many thanks to Sally and Jane at CS.

In my case, the social media CS was useless, I had Sally aswell on twitter, and she completely dismissed my claim saying that I was eligible, I was planning on submitting a formal complaint to Vodafone about it but I got the buds in the end thanks to the live chat team so I left it

Is this offer still valid?

If so does it include porting from 48?

No.

rizzee · 19-02-2021 11:44am

Sorry for the bump.

Is there any current deals going at the moment for porting? I can only something about an Amazon voucher when referring a friend, anything else?

Ends today?

15-03-2021 2:44pm

Yeah looks like it's impossible to get it done within the promotional period since you have to wait for the sim to arrive.

Sorry for all the questions, but I can't seem to find a free SIM, only one that I have to pay for. You dont happen to have a link? No problem if not!

15-03-2021 4:55pm

I don't believe you can get a free sim with Eir anymore.

To anyone who has done this before, were you able to register with your old number for a Vodafone account? I got an email saying I could login but I get an error. Do I just top up by 20 when I receive the SIM? Would prefer to do it all online.
