Hi I need to change business phone supplier, becuase we are already with a vodafone supplier we cannot go direct to vodafone.

Other networks are not an option!!

Anyone recommend a reseller? Or is anyone a reseller?

Why can't you go direct to Vodafone? I've been looking on the website, and they seem to do a number of business sharetime options:-

because our existing supplier is a vodafone partner and they have an 'agreement'. I think carphonewarehouse are going to be able to sort it.

Thanks

I'm with Vodafone via CPW on a sharedtime Package - with free calls between the handsets on the package

Dont take the first handsets that they offer you - play hardball with them - they were keen to outdo my other offer from another supplier

Yes that is the process I'm currently beginning

We want SE K750is which they want us to pay £50 each for, we shall see what we can do.

Could I perhaps ask why this is the case?

When I travelled abroad a lot a couple of years ago my average £400 per month Voda bill dropped to around £120 with T-Mobile.

Network coverage was just as good and when I swapped networks I kept my old number.

I have never fathomed why O2/Voda get away with charging so much more than the others.

From experience customer service is no better (often worse) and there's nothing to choose on a day to day basis with network reliability between the networks.

Thanks.

Phil.

Because vodafone is the only network that works in my village (there is a little britain quote in there somewhere). And I get a lot of calls.

I'd rather be on o2 or orange but it is not to be.

We did get a call analysis for t mobile, it would not have worked out much cheaper.

Cheers

Thanks for the reply David.

As good a reason as any.

All the best.

Have you tried these. Can't vouch for them personally but their other depts seem good.
