I have read threads where Vodafone have taken people for a ride by tel
ling them that they will be sending out a black K750i but then they recieved the Live branded Silver version!
Has anyone actually managed a non branded black version from Vodafone directly (NOT CPW but vodafone the company!)??
I feel they are taking me for a ride as they have told me they expect some in the next week or so? I am due for an upgrade and have been offered half price line rental for the year if i don't take the phone but I would rather take the K750i

Good luck, the only thing that i have ever been told by Vodafone is that they wil only ever ship the silver branded versions to you. Myself left Vodafone and went to Orange because they treated me appalingly on my last upgrade so now i am with orange, the firmwares no better but the customer service is.
In all though i would be highly suprised if you received a black vodafone K750i. Hope you get the outome you desire, regards

Well i know its not what you wanted to hear but its the truth and somehow i dont think that Vodafone will ever offer anyone an unbranded version of any phone.

Cheers Chris. That's exactly what I think but this guy sounded pretty confident of having some in soon.
I have an 02 contract which is an old contract I had through singlepoint and now that vodafone have taken over singlepoint they can't offer me the "live" handset as they know my 02 sim won't work with it!
Yep, strange but i have an 02 contract but an billed by Vodafone! 
Now the biggest problem i face is that if i take a pac code from them i won't be able to goto to 02 again (non branded K750i ) as its already an 02 simcard.....
Very very confusing

Well it seems from this SE add http://www.sonyericsson.com/eye-for-beauty/ that Vodafone will ship both Silver and black versions to some countries. |

Nice find mate, but when you go through to the order online it takes you to the Vodafone shop where only the silver K750i branded is being sold Well we dream that Vodafone will one day remove their awful branded phones!!

Hi Nickil,
How can you be sure they have the black ones and that they are unbranded?

You are lucky...i asked them in a number of occasions and they said no...so i had to move to o2...plus vodafone treated me like shit. Seven years paying £50 bills was not enough. plus they called me when i was asleep and i asked them to call me back and they waffled away...at that point i said that i have a problem with my mobile and they asked what it was and i said that cuts out people out of the blue and hang up on them |

Yep, they had 900 when i rang up.
Limited numbers as 80% of the people who take them wont care if its branded or not. You only get offered this if you ask for the none vodaphone live ones! |
