don't have a clue where then as there are so many phone shops in the centre now.
I read somewhere else though that the unbranded phones are more expensive and vodaphone will charge extra if you want one. Which is totally unfair, if there phone doesn't work in line with what the manufacture has made.
Its like ferrari making a car, then their dealer removing the engine and replacing it with one from a 50cc moped. It is ridiculas.

Yep, you are spot on.
The way i see it is if the phone doesnt do what it is capable of doing, then I want one that can or I cancel
I dare say they will have some clause to wriggle out of me cancelling

how long have you had the phone, as i think 02 have some sort of 30 day policy, where if you aren't happy you can cancel. Maybe vodaphone will have the same thing, other wise just make a huge fuss, and if that doesn't work pay the difference for and unbranded one (worst case senario)

Manipulation is a key asset in a sales persons daily work. Just don't agree with them

I think buying a phone thinking it will be able to do all the manufacturer has built it to do, is not unreasonable.
Voda does stock unbranded phones and they would usually rather give you a new clean phone than lose your contract (which is what in the end they make their money from)
Be friendly but firm

and do not leave the store without an unbranded phone
Why do they do this crappy branding anyway?

It causes more grief than one has joy over each phone purchase

They brand their phone because they know 9 out of 10 customers are docile, and only buy phones on how they look, not what they can do.
Every Vodaphone customer i know personally (well all but one) are style conscious fools who dont really care about things such as MP3 ringtones, or a nice interface, they just buy Vodaphone phones because of their style factor. Usually its the Sharp phones..
Thats why Vodaphone wont listen to that 1 out of every 10.
Like i said in the other thread, my mate has a P900 on Vodaphone, and its very very bad, and very heavily branded. Its ruined the phone.
