    Have a look at Vodafone X plans, that’s good deal too. Apparently it is open to everyone now so prob the reason they stopped offering Data user plan.

    Seems the Vodafone X is just for students according to their website anyway ;(

    Def not anymore, the Vodafone rep confirmed the student restriction has officially been removed though the website would lead you to believe its just for students

    Is it called "Student offer" in the app? If so then yes you did.

    Yep, if you're not a big minute user, then it's a great deal. If for nothing else other than far superior internet coverage than the opposition can offer, and let's face it, if you really need to have a lengthy chat with someone, they're most likely on whatsapp/viber/facetime anyway.

    That student offer deal that they've just knocked on the head is incredible value though in fairness.

    One wonders why they are stopping it unless they have another offering on the way......

    I would say they will leave it to the new year as they will always gain some customers over Christmas anyway. Maybe someone could act dumb and call them and see what they will offer to get them to port in.

    Can't see why they won't continue with it, must be a winner all round

    I think the huge attraction here was getting Vodafone quality for Lyca prices. It's been rare over the years for Vodafone to be in anyway competitive in the PAYG market. The network, for the majority of people, cannot be beaten for stability and consistency (Anyone who's used 3 data or Eir with all their recent outages will testify to that)

    X Weekend is definitely the next best out there as you'll never need to worry about Data given that you get the guts of 100gb per month

    Another poster earlier mentioned Yolla for cheap extra minutes with no expiry and my (limited) experience with it has been very good so could be an option for when the 100minutes or unlimited weekend calls aren't enough.

    For anyone who really wants this deal it might be worth keeping an eye, it's the first of the month so maybe it simply needs reactivating if there was an expiry date of 30th October on it. Enough calls and demand might help someone on the sales team to give marketing a nudge!

    I'd disagree with you about eir, I find it Rock solid. Vodafone does have its outages too. However three is no comparison to both eir and Vodafone.

    Final Question!

    Is there a way to set a recurring add-on for the €15 unlimited calls?

    Thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭Ten Pin


    No, add ons have to be bought manually, from the app, web portal or by text.
