Carrier Vodafone UK Pre-order Thread

The store opened at 9.30 today.
I got an email saying the handset was ready at 9.31
I was in the store collecting at 9.50

The 6plus is a beast but I love it.

Happy customer now.

Oh, and does anyone know how long it takes to activate a sim?

update

I restarted the phone and the sim was instantly connected to the network.

I was told you can tether the full GB included in your plan for free.
Not sure about voip
I had an email saying 'You should get a link with details on what you'll get and how to choose - or you can text 'Entertainment' to 97613 and we'll send it to you'

Can I ask you..... I have just had an email that my 6+ has gone to the courier (DPD) to deliver but I still only have a web order confirmation number, when did you get your email with account details and new phone number etc? Did that arrive with the phone or via email??

the email arrived on monday, the phone on friday in the store

I was also told that I can use the data included to tether. As long as I don't go over the included monthly allowance (7Gb in my case) it's all good.

I would have thought you can use the 4G to make voip calls. I used 3G on my iPhone 5 with 3 to make Skype & FaceTime calls. I don't think Vodafone will really care how you use the data, they'll just charge you if you go over the monthly allowance.

No idea about Spotify. I've heard that you should get an email about it but as I haven't got my phone yet, I can't tell you.

Additionally, if you go to the Vodafone Price Plans Page and click on 'more details' below any plan it explains there additional charges and about VOIP calls.

great news: for the first three months the data are unlimited

Finally moved to stage 3 after no movement for 2 weeks

Edit: just shipped with DPD. Wonder how long delivery takes?

not sure if it will help anyone but our order for the 64GB Silver 6+ was delayed another week minimum, so i spoke to them on live chat.
Cancelled the 64Gb one and Ordered the 128GB 6+ in silver as it was in stock for handset cost £80 (rather than the £129), and should get it tomorrow
