UK: Vodafone: knocks 10 squid off tariffs…
By Ben Robinson on Thursday, April 24th, 2008 at 2:29 PM PST In Research, UK Retail, Vodafone
Vodafone (NYSE: VOD) UK is offering a £10/month discount on two of their tariffs (£35/month and £40/month) when customers sign up for 18 months – they have even done a bit of research to show why this is so important!
Apparently, 52% of us Brits say that on at least one occasion, £10 had made a significant difference to them.
Top ten popular ways to spend a life changing tenner, according to Vodafone’s research:
1. Lottery ticket or scratch card
2. Bet on a horse
3. Life changing book
4. Pregnancy testing kit
5. Mobile top up
6. Buying a drink for their (unbeknown to them) future wife
7. Buying flowers for their wife/wife to be
8. A bargain find at a car boot sale or antique fair
9. First driving lesson
10. Making a donation to a animal shelter when they bought their first pet
Comment: I don’t even want to think how many people can claim to have done more than one of these at the same time…..

Even with this “life changing” £10 discount, price plans are still very expensive compare to other providers… The only good thing is you get better handsets
thats “quid”
Nah, definitely “squid” – bit of slang for fun
