Free AirPods with iPhone X

[mikeerhymes]

Lots of talk about first iPhone X 1000 customers getting free AirPods, Voda CS confirmed this is true. I registered interest with the iPhone which is all I was told to do but not heard anything else. Did anyone get an email confirming free AirPods?

[mikeerhymes]

Well at least someone has actually got the confirmation then, I'm not one of them though...

It looks like quite a number got their orders in pre 8am!

Nothing yet ...

7:57am  order and heard nothing, so said, also didn't get the email about the promotion even though I registered interest as soon as iphone x was announced.  No idea how they selected who got the email

[brownbear]

Tis a strange one indeed.

Got the email at 8.13, then did the preorder straight away.

Would've been a nice little incentive. oh well.

Strangely, even though I registered interest (more than once)... I never got an email from Vodafone saying it was ready to pre-order.  Recon they had some issues on the day.

The ones who received the email. What time did you pre order? I ordered my phone at 07:58, no comms from voda

I’m fairly new to these forums, does a representative from Vodafone ever respond on them? I sat there refreshing the page Friday morning and got my order through as soon as it appeared about 7.55. I find it very hard to believe that 1000 people got there before me!

I would have to agree...seems odd that having followed all the 'requirements' and completed pre-order around 8am on 27/10, I am outside of the first 1000 customers to complete order and receive this 'freebie'. But I guess there is little one can do about it. Congrats to those who have received confirmation of being eligible, obviously have faster fingers than me

I am pleased to say I got an text from Vodafone at 19.11 last Tuesday to confirm that I will be getting my Airpods.

Preordered Iphone X at around 7.30am 27/10.
