    Yep showing 390 here.
    100 off switching bonus.

    So 290 is the latest retail price.

    Yeah. I dropped the one I got back in November yesterday and smashed the screen. I checked yesterday and could have picked up a replacement for 180 but today it’s up to 280 :(

    Strange it seems to have only gone up on certain links.

    Still €179 here if you switch.

    Better off waiting a month or so for the 4a at that price.

    I would agree only if Vodafone also offer the 100 euro off for the 4A. Otherwise, I would still say go for the 3A. :)

    I did, from a few browsers. It just redirects back to the PAYG page with all phones.

    I got an agent to commit to posting me an invoice, wouldn't email it. Should be adequate, thanks.

    I can see it too. On Android, with switch number selected it's €179. Ridiculous Vodafone and their sh1te website, one has to wonder how on earth they manage to function as a company when their site update fails basic QA. :D

    What's the url to track your cash back, I never saved it and have had no communication at all

    Vodafone promised 3 time that they will send me the invoice in 24 hours . nothing received , ended up calling google claim and explained the situation to supervisor who understood and approved with only dispatch note while i was still on the phone .

    It worked for me on my phone yesterday and I was able to put in an order but the order is now saying it was cancelled. I called and was asked to wait until Wednesday to see if it updates again.

    If I try the link now redirects to the page with the higher price


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,476 ✭✭✭✭Ush1


    Ordered one last night, was due for dispatch today but now gone back to being processed?

    Sorry, I've already submitted over a week ago but I don't have any comms from them at all. There was a link to 'track your refund' or something like that but I never saved it. Does anyone have that link?

    So my order wasn't cancelled. There were 2 orders for some reason, one showing in process and one cancelled. But my phone arrived this morning so I'm happy :)

    Now to see if I can apply for that cash back :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,491 ✭✭✭bidiots


    Did you order before 31 march?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,523 ✭✭✭machalla


    Got my 50 cashback yesterday. Took about a week.

    bidiots wrote: »

    No, and I just realised that that was the cutoff for purchase on the cash back. 180 is still a good deal for the phone


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,121 ✭✭✭The Ayatolla


    Why not just photoshop or edit the date using MS Paint to say you ordered before 31 March?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,694 ✭✭✭✭L-M


    Presume there’s no way around this other than ordering a SIM card? I’ve ordered one from 48 and no sign yet.

    My mother is looking for a new phone and these seem very decent for the money.

    Edit Nevermind... The link for the one for 280 with the cash back seems to be dead now. Boo-urns

    Hi Guys , impulse purchase . amazingly fast phone , but realized its not my cup of tea , im used to big screens , so selling . Used 2 days or so and did full factory reset . So anyone interested please pm me Price 200 Euro including transparent silicone case and postage to your door or PM locker. Will include dispatch note if you will need to contact google in the warranty period in the next 2 years .

    You got it for 129 euro and are trying to make a profit?

    Tssk tssk, off to Adverts with you!

    I got it for 179 Euro + 10 Euro for the case case Plus i will include postage (around 10-12 courier) , i didnt get it for 129 as i bought 2 initially one for the member of the family that i got the cashback already . so wanted to give me fellow bordies heads up before going to adverts as phone is brand new.

    So this second phone of yours is still eligible for the cashback offer?

    Edit: I mean in the sense that I don't understand why you didn't apply for the cashback offer for both phones at the time?

    Because i bought them 10 days apart , I submitted one and got cashback . Didnt know that you can get two cashbacks . so the other one didn't qualify their second rule as i submitted late and they rejected stating .
    one of the rules didnt apply - "You are submitting your claim within 30 days of making your qualifying purchase"


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Why would you not think you can get cashback on both phones? Seems very suspicious.

    But anyway, you can't sell on Boards, only on Adverts. :)

    Why would you think you can get many cashback , only if you have profit in your mind :)

    and apparently you can only get two cashback not more

    Mods: you can delete my post if its violation of any rules etc , i know people were asking here to get one from their fellow members , hence i posted .

    Anyone have a problem with this phone not charging? Tried reboot, changing chargers and cleaning charging port but no luck. :-(


  • Posts: 18,962 [Deleted User]


    bought 2 of these and a family member has one of them

    weird fault came up on it - it stopped ringing on incoming calls

    factory reset, other solutions etc didn't solve it.

    dns was not on etc etc

    from research it appears that it can be a problem with the 3a

    got onto google web-chat help and they are going to replace it.

    Mine's a bit temperamental. I though it was just the charging cable but it's happening with more than one charger??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,263 ✭✭✭deiseindublin


    I bought one at Christmas and stuck it in a drawer but reading all the faults posters here are finding I reckon I'd want to try it sooner rather than later.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,613 ✭✭✭Del007


    I bought 2 and they're working perfectly

    Tried a few chargers which all worked fine on other half's phone. When I put in the first charger in it beeped like mad for about 30 secs. I got a 'no command' screen at one stage too. Eventually battery on phone died and I gave charging port a third pin clean and put the vacuum over it for a couple of seconds and about 30 mins later phone started charging. Yay.

    No idea if this is just a glitch and if letting battery drain or the hoover worked but I am happy as I think it's a great phone and I am a fussy old sod.

    My pixel 3a was working great but I dropped it in work and the corner of the screen cracked. Can still use it but the cost of a screen repair seems to be nearly the same as the 130 I paid for it! My fault for not having a cover so get a cover folks!

    Yeah mine has been very tricky to charge too. Needs the original cable and to be put in just right.
