Vodafone freebie

Just rang up Vodafone to get a PAC to swop to Virgin and the guy at the other end asked why we wanted to leave,I said about Virgin being cheaper for text messages between Virgin users and he then offered £15 credit or 500 free texts,I then shamelessly said that my daughter would also like a PAC and she was offered the same,£15 each for a phonecall :D:D ,dunno if i'm not allowed to put Nos. up but any mods can edit if they like 08080945945

    so are u gonna stay with Vodafone then???
    Wait till you have used the free credit, phone them up again to cancel. They may even give u the same again ( wishful thinking) :rolleyes:
    A smile and manners doesnt cost any thing
  • i know a friend who was on a contract phone he phoned up and told them he wanted to leave and they gave him a free bluetooth headset and offered to give him extras on his contract for free like extra texts and minutes. it proves they dont like losing customers

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: you bet,you never know they might get the 500 free texts next time,apparently next month Vodafone are having a big push on special offers,free texts,free mins or the talk for 1 hour(evenings) for the price of 3 mins

    Are you on contract or pay as you go? @ sel warrior.
    You could try and blag yourself a new mobile if your contract is a year old. But it will mean you will have to stay with Voda for the next 12-18 months.

    08080945945 is the Prepay call centre number,its a surprise to hear them offer incentives on Prepay for people considering leaving.
