Second mobile on an existing contract?

Hi is it possible to piggy back a mobile phone for my daughter onto my existing vodafone contract? It seems quite a difficult subject to get info on. She has a PAYG at the moment but never has any credit because I forget to top up or she will ask when I'm too busy so as she is wanting a new phone I thought this would be a more convienient way of ensuring she can stayin contact.:hello:

    If she wants a new phone, is your contract up for renewal?

    If not, are you buying it seperatly as PAYG?

    If not, then you will need a new contract, and for a daughter who is bound to go over the limits of a contract and rack up a bill, i would suggest you look at T-Mobile Solo Fixed. You pay a monthly bill that cant be exceeded.


    As to sharing on your current contract, im not sure. Ring up and ask your operator.
