    I'm sure this is an incorrect price but the iphone 4s is showing on Vodafone for €50 pay as you go: shop.vodafone.ie/shop/phones-and-plans/phones/pay-as-you-go/phone-details/iphone-4s-16gb-black

    Anyone chance their arm?

    Stuck in an order, no way they're gonna honour it, but you can't win the lotto if you don't buy a ticket!

    It will not happen, they'll find excuse not to sell for that price :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,152 ✭✭✭✭Berty


    Got it confirmed. Problem I guess is that so many will see this and try that it will raise eyebrows with Vodafone who will block all the orders. 2 or 3 might have slipped through on a weekday but they will all back up over the weekend and somebody will spot it. :(

    Remember the hotel thread. Some people, early bookers managed to get honoured, lets see what happens. :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,390 ✭✭✭baldshin

    They swallowed my card details, but i think they will swallow their pride and return my money. Sure you never know will see what happens next :)

    Unable to complete request came up there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,593 ✭✭✭theteal


    legally do they not have to honor it??

    nope, mistakes happen, look up the case of littlewoods versus the "I know my rights" brigade from last year


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,775 ✭✭✭✭Paul Tergat

    legally do they not have to honor it??

    Of course not. "Invitation to treat" is the legal way out of not having to honour it.

    I clicked on the e-mail "Track Order" and it appears I must have tried many times because I have 3 cancellations yet the order number I clicked on isn't showing as cancelled............................yet anyway. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,450 ✭✭✭wolfyboy555


    Was able to order it there and confirmation email. This reminds of the littlewoods table deal:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 731 ✭✭✭ene


    says its out of stock now


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭utyh2ikcq9z76b


    Just remember this and keep the faith

    Ha, just remind this is Vodafone and lose the faith. They make little to nothing on iPhones because Apple screw them so they will hardly happily take a €500 haircut and honour the price. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,604 ✭✭✭dave1982


    Smeels like the hotel rooms fiasco a few months ago


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 731 ✭✭✭ene


    just managed to order it, money has left my account and have gotten a confirmation email!

    fingers crossed


  • Registered Users Posts: 66 ✭✭irlgirl


    also ordered and got confirmation email and 10 euro cashback through fatcheese tracked


  • Registered Users Posts: 43 AndrewHoey2012

    scam? Can't see this on vodafone.ie, only on the OPs link


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,152 ✭✭✭✭Berty

    It's like the Lotto, if you're not in you can't win but at least this way if you don't win(get phone) you WILL get a refund.
    scam?

    Why would Vodafone be scamming people?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,875 ✭✭✭✭MugMugs


    Just ordered and confirmed. Money gone :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 242 ✭✭HellboundIRL


    I've been trying to order for the past hour or so but keep getting thrown an error when I've entered my card details and try to confirm :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 726 ✭✭✭psychozeb


    order won't go through for me using mastercard.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,072 ✭✭✭Max Power


    I just bought one there, got conformation email. Not sure why some people saying they're sold out.

    Try a different card if you have CC and Visa Debit / Laser if you can. Worked for me, also used the missus card with her name(and permission) in case my constant attempts were flagged or blocked using my own card and name. ;)
    I just bought one there, got conformation email. Not sure why some people saying they're sold out.

    To be fair when somebody said it earlier I did check online and YES It was showing as sold out. There was a button saying "Notify me when Available" or something like that.

    Because it was sold out for a while. When it did there was still hope that these might be honoured as there were only a few ordered. Now that it is back in stock again for some bizarre reason means that they won't.

    Chanced my arm - not in can't win :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 65,881 ✭✭✭✭unkel
    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    Ordered, money taken from credit card and confirmation email received. Now let's hope the postman will be good on Tuesday :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 992 ✭✭✭bf


    have 2 ordered on different cards - showing as out of stock now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭bri007


    tried numerous times on different cards,didnt work :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,624 ✭✭✭Thor


    Ordered there about 10 minutes ago, feels much like the fnac issue with the hp touchpads with there stock error.

    Anyway, it's the wait and see game from now on.
