Has anyone experinced or know what happens if you just stop paying your vodafone account?
I have a phone and a weekly account that is i beleive about 2 years
Ok i know that they initially stop the abilty to send calls
but what happens next
Do they block the phone?
Request you send it back
or just send it of to the debt collectors?

If the account is two years old you probably don't have a term contract anymore. Why not just cancel it?

They probably send to a collection agency.

If you owe money on the account, theyll probably lock your account so you cant use the phone services and send you off to the debt collectors without hesitation.

As freitasm said, if its out of contract, just cancel it. Pay the outstanding amount and youre done.
