    Hi Shazam, were you with cool new mobile or phone box direct? you see i got a call today and they asked me if i was with dialaphone, and this was from the 'memo' department. They then said they just need to check some information and would give me a call back...which after about 2 hours i still haven't received that call yet! but nyway i just wanted to ask you...did u have to say anything specifically to them to get ur priceplan reduce to half price? or did they just do it for you by not considering anything? i mean did they consider anything like being a student so affordability issues?

    I just mentioned that PBD had gone into liquidation was there any way that they could change my contract so that i can pay less. They called me back 2 days later as promised and offered me this, saying it was out of good will... what surprised me was that i had to do no pleading. Just ask them if they could do the same offer as they have with other affected customers. Be warned they may just be fobbing you of with the excuse about the letter to get you of the phone.
    hope this helps

    Ive just found out about PDB and Mobile Affiliates. Ive logged a complaint with Vodafone and got the same crap except they also threw in "THATS WHY YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BUY FROM US AND NOT OTHER COMPANIES". Ive also logged a complaint on Watchdog. Not sure what to do next - although I can pay for the 2 contacts I have, I am still down £900 over the year.

    If anyone has an email address for Vodafone, please post it.

    You have to use the online form on their website in the contact us section, but you'll be lucky on a reply. I have emailed them twice with no reply and called them 3 times to hear the 9 month rule :-(
