I'm on a prepaid data plan and want to switch to the prepaid 4G plan (http://www.vodafone.co.nz/prepay-4g/.

Looks like the only way to do this is via phone. Have been on-hold forever. Does anyone want to pick up the phone and take my money??

Can you do it via the My Vodafone app on your phone?

Thought I'd try that earlier but didn't get that far. First step is to register for My Vodafone:

Jesse, your 6-digit verification code was sent by TXT to 021XXXXXX


...Except it's been a while and the code hasn't turned up yet. I'm receiving other txt messages though.

We have a known issue going on right now if you are trying to register try in the morning,

You need to switch to PrepaySmart then add the $19 4G bundle

I finally got through to a CSR.

They won't let me transfer from a prepaid data plan to a prepaid smart plan.

I have to buy a new sim from the supermarket, call them again, pay them a fee and apparently we're done.

Thieves.

There is a reason why front line staff can't move PrepayData connections to other Prepay base plans, Nothing to do with $$ but config
