Vodafone - Discounted phone when you switch-Dunnes Valueclub mailing

Or just order a free meteor sim online.

The 20euro credit will be a printout I assume and I could give it to someone else? They don't put credit on phone number I'm switching?

I would be on for buying it with a old sim and giving credit to family member and getting phone unlocked?

I tried the website but you have to add at least €20 topup with free sim card maybe different in store but online its this way. Also same with the rest online just Tesco has the cheapest minimum required to get sim.

Get voucher bring to vodafone store to buy phone with non vodafone activated sim card (working on another network) and port number to vodafone. They will help you instore.

You might not do this correctly:

Go to https://www.meteor.ie/pay-as-you-go/simplicity/

Scroll down to "1 Order a Free Sim or buy a phone"

Click on "order a sim"

Click "Order a free Sim card" under "New to meteor"

Choose your Sim size


And voila after you entered all of your details your free SIM is on the way.

Thanks very much this works i just ordered sim now.

Do VF do any checks on sim cards?

Orders weren't going through for me with free meteor sims online recently

I got the text and placed the orders but they were cancelled after

Vodafone has their own criteria for online orders and might reject any order from a customer for reasons they only know. Maybe they suspect you game the system, they don't think they like you on their network due to history you had with them or the porting failed.

When it comes to porting, all they do is request the port from Meteor after they have verified that you are the actual owner. This is done by sending you a text for example. They than request the port and meteor needs to approve it. It might fail there if meteor does suspect you only got the free sim to play this game. It might help if your register the sim with meteor once you get it and than do a port after that.

Nokia 3 looks like good value for the price. Nice basic compact phone.

Just an update i ordered a meteor sim thanks to Yggr of Asgard instructions. It arrived free of charge. I then went online to meteor and registered the phone number with my details. They made one free call number call and sent free text to setup voicemail with meteor. Then called into vodafone store with voucher and told the guy that phone was for my daughter and that we have not decided on the plan she wants as it was 20 euro spotify or the 20 euro all you can eat as he wanted to add the credit to the phone number account so instead he gave me the voucher for the credit as he had to show it on the bill in order to get the phone with offer. So you will need to buy the credit also which is 20 euro. But I now have the nokia 3 and it is only available in black they have with 20 euro credit voucher which i will use for my account when i am due which is soon.

Been honest. I am very interested in switching to Vodafone and getting the Nokia 3. But again been honest, the Pay As You Go plans are awfully poor offerings.

Is it pure android or loaded with Vodafones bloatware.

The plans are not great but if you are part time student with valid I'd it should work not really age restricted.

Phone was free of all bloatware well it only had 2 Vodafone apps both can be stopped and uninstalled.

Phone seems fine so far I found it more responsive then my moto g 2nd gen which is two and a half years old now.

Ben using one a few weeks and there would be only apps from the operators installed which are removeable. Its a great phone for the money even to buy at cost price and its not a cheap build quality its solid, the camera is also great for its price range ive posted some images on my social and everyone agrees with the detail it picks up. Anyone else has any questions fire away..

Strange you are the second person who said there were operator apps installed. I picked one up today and there was no Vodafone apps on it at all. And it is unlocked too. Was it one that slipped their net before locking it.

First batches are normally unlocked to get them out in peoples hands,then after a while they will be,this goes for most operators. Happened with many phones for me over the years..Mine was direct from HMD Global though and free of all junk but its pot luck now with phones locked etc,would depend on store too and how fast they go through stock.
