    Same

    Contacted support and they said the account is not fully set up yet but it will be within 24 hours. Got my first sim setup fully and topped up so just waiting on the text to that phone.

    Just had a chat with CCE and they said 72 hours required. They gave 20e credit. What will I do with credit when i cannot make any calls and cannot receive any calls.

    No phone for 3-4 days

    If you go into a shop they will sort it on the spot for you.

    Finally managed to top up the 2nd sim so now just waiting on the text with the discount code. Hopefully that part goes a little more smooth. Vodafone really make hard work of the porting process. They could really learn a few things from gomo/48.

    Mine arrived this morning as well. Waiting to be ported over.

    Has anybody actually gotten the discount code yet


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭cfeeneyinterior


    Sim finally started working after taking 2 days showing as not provisioned, chat wanted me to phone them but I couldn't get around to it. Topped up there . 14 day wait now I suppose. I assume once the codes start coming out, people will put it up here.

    It's very small. Check the bag again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 662 ✭✭✭epopnomis


    Have turned it inside and out, no joy... Ah well back onto vodaclowns again. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 154 ✭✭jhammer


    Sim arrived. Worked straight away. Topped up by 20e, that took an hour or two. Made a call/text and browsed data on web. 14 days countdown is on....

    I'd say there may be a lot of annoyed people if they don't deliver on the Buds.

    Do they care. I have a sim with no incoming and outgoing. Twitter team is useless. Gave me 20e credit for next month which is a lie as no credit exists

    What will I do with credit when cant make a call. SCAM. They planted it this way, why would they care

    Because of the grief they will get on Facebook, Twitter etc if it goes pear shaped.
    Big companies do not like get bad feedback and will try to avoid at all costs.
    I would guess there are lots of people porting to 48 and Gomo from Vodafone because of price so not clever by making a mess of getting people back.

    Your SIM isn't working? Go into a Vodafone shop and they will sort you on the spot.

    I lost all faith in store after filling a form to add additional name to my broadband connection...spent 30 mins to figure out how its done.

    Icing on cake is name addition was never done nor it could be traced anywhere !! I think they are being bought by someone soon and i am not surprised !

    Mine worked for me as soon as he swapped out the SIM. I was on to 3 different online Customer Care reps and none could get the SIM working, so that was the only option I was given.

    The guy in the shop said that my number was ported across and active, but the SIM just wasn't working.

    Bear in mind that this has been added to the terms of the offer:
    Effective from 16 October 2020:
    Customers moving from Tesco /48 are not eligible to avail of this offer.

    I used an Eir SIM for mine.

    I ported over a recruiter sim that hadn't been activated. It failed the first time but Vodafone retried it and it worked so not sure if 48 refused it the first time or not.

    Ordered a Eir Sim :)
