    OK, im confused now. Vodaphone says the Anytime 275 has 500 FREE texts, just emailed Car phone warehouse to see if they have it wrong (fingers crossed)

    The description you found was for one of Vodafone's online tariff deals on their website - these are different from the offline deals sold via resellers. Infact, if you look more closely you will find an Anytime 275 without free texts on the Vodafone site as well.

    It is a common ploy among networks to have exclusive tariff offers on their own website in addition to the tariff range sold through resellers.

    I assume this is a "Vodafone CarphoneWarehouse" tariff as opposed to a "Vodafone" tariff?

    Most Vodafone deals on CarphoneWarehouse, E2SAVE and OSPS all have no TXT's.

    Aint that very missleading, I thought they had to have a sightly diffrent name (like Vodafone 275 and Voadafone 275 eXtra or somthing)

    Good spot but I don't fancy trying to reclaim the cashback 5 times!

    As long as you stick to the t&c there should be no problems with cashback.
