Unhappy with Vodafone and a childs phone.

There is contradicting information on this. There is no any official information proving this, and usually the cap that they promise turns out to be some soft 'credit limit' that can be easily breached.
EDIT: I was wrong. Their new price guide does say:
I have had a £50 credit limit on my account on three for over 18 months, it definitely works because I triggered it abroad about 12 months ago.
It was a right pain and at the time I wished I'd never set it lol.0 -
It always makes me smile whenever I see teens toting iPhones and the newest Galaxies. When I was 15, I had a crummy PAYG phone which I would top up with £10 every two months!
Bearing in mind, I'm only in my early twenties right now, I can't believe how much things have changed.
OP, perhaps your son needs a few more years with a PAYG phone so he can learn how to budget with his top-ups/data?0 -
Maybe it's the people rather than the things. It's the blame culture and expectation of no personal responsibility made up for by the nanny state which is now the norm, it seems.0

I doubt we will see OP back. She hasn't replied to any of the comments.0

How do you think they make that big profit?0
