I spoke with an account manager at Vodafone today who said that I could extend my contract beyond the 12 months and usually get at least 50% off line rental.
Obviously they must love this because it saves them forking out for a handset, but does anyone know if the extension will tie me into a 12 month contract extension? Suppose 4 months into the extension I wish to cancel can this be done? I called Vodafone back but the stilly woman told me it would definitely be for another 12 months firm, also said she wouldn't be able to put me through to an account manager to confirm becuase I was being 'hypotethical' ?!?
Anyway I can't see why there would be a need for a fixed length contract since Vodafone wouldn't need to recover any subsidies - was she just talking out of her rear end?
I have had similar battles with Sky extending contracts and being told I have to wait for another 12 months, then when I actually get transferred to someone who understands the concept of subsidy reclaim I am of course allowed to cancel!
Sorry about the rambling post.
