    I had to buy €10 on eir to port over, happy to do a partial trade if you’re interested.

    My eir had nothing on it. I registered it and used web text to send a text.

    They refused, told him it was just a student offer and that they needed a valid student number to put it through. Try the Facebook trick tomorrow

    Did he try to text the keyword for the specific X plan as described here...

    https://n.vodafone.ie/shop/pay-as-you-go-plans/vodafone-x.html

    Eg for X weekend text WEEKEND to 50222 and then top up by 20 (don't top up before opt in).

    Vodafone N10 came unlocked.

    Crappy screen, poor camera - but just perfect to keep kids entertained in the plane. If buying one for regular use, put the $ and get the A20e.

    The a20e is a nice phone. Looks good, camera is as expected and screen is lovely. Fast charging is a gift, 20% to 100% in an hour.

    Probably been asked before but if they make you top up by €20 instore, can you still opt-in to a vodafone x plan for example after? Or would you have to top up by €20 again to get the deal?

    If they want to put the credit on the phone in store, tell them to put you on which ever plan you choose.
    I wasn't asked to buy credit, got the phone for 69 euro.

    Hubby had to put the credit on there and they wouldn't put him on the X deal so he went the next day text weekend to whatever number then had to top up by 20 again. I'd say it depends on which shop and who's working. This was in Letterkenny

    Tuam.
    I went in after 16:00 on Saturday. Apparently it was too late to Port over my number. But the guy took the voucher, rang my number, scanned the phone into the system but wouldn't give me the phone until the port went through on Monday. He did give me the SIM card. When I went back on Monday I was dealing with a different person, she may have assumed the other guy took the 20 euro on Saturday when he gave me the SIM card.
    Or she just made an error.

    I have a tesco mobile sim, but I don't have a phone to pop it into. Does anyone know if Vodafone can check the number somehow, would they have unlocked phones to use?

    Some Vodafone stores require you to call to their phone to prove your transferring number, instead of them calling your number.

    When I enquired about it with the Vodafone Rep, here in Boards, I was told that the Vodafone franchise stores can form their own policies around the promotion and cannot be controlled by Vodafone company. I was also told that in the Vodafone self-managed stores, the staff member can be instructed to call to your transferring number without asking you to call their phone.

    Whenever I have switched phones in the past they have always called or texted me. When I went to Vodafone store to avail of this offer I had a sim (tesco) but no phone. There was no credit on the phone, so they popped the sim into a store unlocked phone and rang it from their main phone, once they saw it rang and connected they did the rest easy peasy.

    The store in question is a franchise though, so maybe that had an impact?
