    OK, not so straight forward. Cleaning up my email drawer and an email from a separate email address called campaign.administration.en@eu.sony.com had told me that the PDF of the order confirmation email did not constitute an invoice. Looking closer at the times of the emails both were sent on the same day but the eligibility confirmation email was sent after the Proof of purchase not OK email. Either way I've sent a picture of the only bit of paperwork that Vodafone sent with the phone, the dispatch note, and highlighted where the information sought is contained on the dispatch note. Hopefully that will sort everything out.

    Currys have the 5 ii at €720 - is this the current best price for sim free or are there any other Irish sellers at a better price?

    I think they're the only Irish sim free sellers at the moment, at any price unfortunately. Thanks Brexit.

    Ordered yesterday and due for delivery Tuesday. Have always liked the Xperia range, so to be able to upgrade to 5G at reasonable price is great. Have had the XZ1 since Christmas 2017.

    Ive an upgrade due and I hate Samsung phones which seems to be all Eir have at the minute - currently using a Mate 20 pro that I got 2 years ago on last upgrade that is a fantastic phone. Id be going Huawei again if they had google apps but unfortunately not at the minute.

    I can get the Xperia 5II 5g free on upgrade..

    Is it worth it?

    absolutely - but in reality its not free unless you are paying under €30/month. My guess is the plan about €50/€60 a month and you'd be locked in for 24 months

    I'd go buy a sim free phone and then go for 48.ie plan @ 10.99/month unless your data usage is very high.

    Its a business account (but not an official business account if you get me) so I can claim most if it back yearly.

    Been with eir for years and usually claim the phone as expenses - I was more wondering what the phone is like.

    Then go for it - I've had it since December and love the battery life in particular.

    Ultra wide (landscape) screen is great for the newer movies, and likewise the the ultra long (portrait) is great when reading as more fits on the screen.

    Camera and video are also strong points.
