Hi, does anyone have any luck obtaining discount from Vodafone? I just signed two 12month contracts totalling approx £90.00. Seem reluctant to do much past what is advertised?

  • If you have signed the contracts its prob too late for discounts.

    So how much were you looking for on two contracts that equate to £7.50 each?  
  • 90 per month sorry...

    Not sure what you have signed up for but unlimited data/text and minutes sims can be found for around £20 a month including Vodafone for 12 months at £24 a month.
  • Always use youtube on the go... also the phone is pretty hefty Samsung S20+

    The limitless sims are what they say: you can watch as much youtube as you like and the fact that its a S20+ makes no difference to the sim usage.

    OP why didn't you look around and check websites for cheaper deals before signing contract?
    Not everyone gets good deals from the mobile providers you really do have to shop about to get a good deal.

    Too late now you've signed.
    For future reference, when these contracts are coming to an end, shop around. If you can't be  bothered with switching go back to VF retentions, ask for your code, then tell them the offer you are thinking of moving to and ask them what they will do to match it. They have the scope to offer discounts (I had 40%  off last time) or add extra data/minutes on to your plan. 
    They won't match cashback though. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    With a Samsung S20+? You might find what you think are 12 month contracts are actually 24 months.

    not sure the point of this thread? Was this a 'i got a s20' phone show off thread?
    You clearly are smart enough to know that you cant get a discount when you have just signed a 12 month contract and and got the latest phone. You have to wait near the end of the contract. Also im pretty sure it was 24 months
