Me again. Sorry!
After my port issue was resolved earlier today and my main number is now on Vodafone I now have a new issue!
I’ve had a 30 day plan running for 10 months or so and “upgraded” it 4 days ago to a new 30 day plan with a higher allowance. I was advised that this would not affect my eligibility to upgrade. The upgrade was done, and quite rightly, the upgrade option was still there.
Fast forward to today and now I have a new number (well, the number I ported!), it’s now telling me not only that I can’t upgrade for 3 months, I can’t add a new line, nor can I add a monthly data plan for my Apple Watch! All these options were available to me before I ported my number!!!! I spoke to someone online and they suggested the fix was to take out a new line! This isn’t the resolve I was expecting and surely it can’t be as much of a ball ache as that?!? Can someone please reach out to me?
Solved! Go to best answer.

Gentleman finally rang back which I’m glad about. Solution was to cancel the upgrade and just do a plan migration (which was what I wanted anyway! Lol). All sorted.
So anyone on a 30 day sim plan who wants to change tariff, you need to ask for a tariff migration. Any mention of the word “upgrade” should not be entertained. Happy days....

Hi @simax
Unfortunately the Vodafone Social Media Teams cannot help with Account issues via your post here on the forum.
You would need to reach out to them via Contact-us-for-account-specific-queries.
I'd suggest to use Twitter and link back to your thread here including your forum username. Facebook is an option too or ring 191 or use Live Chat.
I wish you all the best with this situation.

I’ve messaged them via Facebook Messenger as I don’t have Twitter anymore and the Live Chat was no help when I queried it with them (they were the ones who told me just to take out a new contract to fix).
Thanks.

Well, even though the Facebook Messenger for Vodafone states “Typically replies within minutes”, I’m still waiting for a response 17 hours later.
Rang 191 earlier today and was promised a callback within 30 minutes. That’s not happened either.
Very disappointing.
