Hi there
The VEA discount is only applicable on full priced contracts taken out directly through Vodafone. It cannot be used on any plans where a discount has been applied or those taken out through third parties.
So, in short, if you negotiate a discount with an advisor, you cannot get your VEA discount off that price.

There is no guarantee what discount you may be offered. This is very much down to what you negotiate. Call up and ask the question, if you are happy with the price, go ahead and take out the plan. If you aren't happy, you can say no and you still have your VEA discount to turn to.

@thewizard53 If you like the non- VEA discount offered take it there and then as often when people go back to try and get the discount is is no longer available.

Max I've had was 45% discount and a sure signal box ( which I never actually got ) this was a sim only contract.
Current contract has vea discount. Managed to get a free phone and delivery (6s 128gb) , 5gb extra data , 6 months early upgrade ( not holding my breath on this) Netflix for 18 months.
Depending on on who rings you, a lot of extras can be thrown in.

Hi @thewizard53
You may find a sweeter deal much nearer to your Contract End date - not early upgrade date by speaking to the Retentions Department via Customer Service on a Weekday via 191. I appreciate your focus is on the new phone.
If VEA isn't a deal breaker then have a look at the independents such as CPW. Just weight up that you'll be there customer using the Vodafone Network, no VEA, and features such as Calling Over Wifi.
Do lots of Homework and never jump at an offer unless your pretty sure that's going to be the best. Yes some offers are on the table for a limited time but there's always going to be deals. If you jump too fast then after 30 days Cooling Off your locked in for quite some time.
Enjoy the journey.
