Vodafone PAYG free weekends call trap

You might be aware that if you spend £5 over a week on Vodafone PAYG plan, you'll get free weekend calls to UK numbers.

But this includes only 60 minutes of cross network minutes!

Last weekend, I felt in this trap. Luckily I checked my balance after £3 worth of call and then came to know about this limitation after I checked with their customer service.

:mad:

Funny, they won't warn you once you've used your 60 cross network free minutes!
Happiness is buying an item and then not checking its price after a month to discover it was reduced further.

    This also happened to me. Apparently they changed the terms a while ago which they didnt inform me of!

    Do you know when T&C changed? I got free weekend plans long time ago.

    Better to understand a little than to misunderstand a lot.

    I had free weekend when it was ALL weekend, thus and Stop the Clock and 500 free texts for a £15 a month topup was exceptional value, having lost out to 60 mins weekends I only use that baby for Vodafone Passport
    SO... now England its the Scots turn to say dont leave the UK, stay in Europe with us in the UK, dont let the tories fool you like they did us with empty lies... You will be leaving the UK aswell as Europe ;)
