Hi I have a Vodafone smart ultra 6 phone brought from vodafone on payg. It's now created a fault where the middle button won't work
It was brought in august 2015 but I understand these have 24 month warranty so I have read on here. I visited Vodafone store this morning and they assured me it was only 12 months even tho I stated it was on eforum its 24 months, so I ring customer help line and they also state it's 12 month and want me to pay to have it fixed. They both insist its 12 months for payg and 24 for contract, so I seem to be banging my head against a brick wall ouchhhh.
Except for Apple products, all devices come with our standard 24-month warranty. If you’re a Pay monthly or Business customer, this applies whatever the length or type of your contract. If you’re a Pay as you go customer, your warranty starts on the day you buy your device.
You also get a 12-month warranty on all the accessories that are in the box when you buy your device.
Read this also but still insist its 12 months for payg
Hopefully someone can confirm my rights thanks in advanced

Hi,
The phone has a 24 month manufacturing warranty.
The Shop is wrong.
Id print off Vodafones own help page and take it in and access the Internet while there to support this.

You're welcome.
Let the vodafone Team here engage with you.
If necessary raise a complaint to which Vodafone then need to resolve within 8 weeks.
With Live Chat I would screen print Vodafones support page and send it over.
Retain all Chat transcripts with them.

It does say after 24 months warranty, pay monthly, I would go back to Vodafone but they will just say the same again

The important part is
"Except for Apple products, all devices come with our standard 24-month warranty. "
The bit after that explains when it starts.
