Yes, I can confirm that Vodafone put standard Talks on their phones.
I have found that most of their reps have heard of it when you speak to them
at customer services and that the manager/head sales people at the shops
also have some idea too which is good.
Also from my experience, they tend to be one talks version or so behind. I
think this is partly deliberate from a low risk strategy point of view.
e.g. for the most part, Talks works on the N96 but, they told me that Talks
doesn't currently support the N96.
So, I guess I would have complained more if they had offered to put it on
and it didn't work or half worked than I would if they said, as they did
that the N96 is not supported.
I know what I mean, hope you all do!
Off to phone Vodafone now to get them to pay for my handset upgrade.
Cheers.

He has Standard Talks on his phone and not Premium. I know that because I
also have a phone from Vodafone and I was able to upgrade with the help of
Steve Nutt, Computer Room Services for £50.00 to Talks Premium on a new
phone which I also purchased through Steve. I now have both phones and am
very pleased with them though the Talks Premium would have some more
functions as I am told though I probably don't use Talks enough to have
noticed the difference. I have noted the difference when I am downloading
e-mails as Talks on the Premium one tells me the percentage of download as
it goes but on the Standard Talks the phone is silent when downloading.
Your friend should tell the Vodafone people that it is Repairs that know
about the Talks as it is Repairs that puts it on. I am prepared to stand
corrected on this one of course. It is all hit and miss I am afraid who you
speak to at Vodafone as I found myself, even in their flagship store in
Oxford Street, London. Now the problem is that you cannot phone individual
stores but I know that Vodafone at Hammersmith Underground in London and
Blue Water in Kent know about putting on Talks, also in Belfast there are
shops that are familiar with this service. Hope this helps. When I got my
Talks put on I went to a local shop in Kilburn in London. I was fortunate
in that the Manager who dealt with me had arranged Talks for someone the
week before. Would you believe, that shop is now closed down!!! I cannot
believe vodafone to be a victim of the recession crunch somehow. Smile.

hello list,
can anyone out there, help me to help a friend of mine.
he got a deal from Vodafone, that included talks, but now, after some time,
he wants to upgrade his phone, but no one at Vodafone, seems to know
anything about talks.
just to really make things interesting, he also doesn't know who actually
owns his talks licence, if he should get a new talks when he upgrades his
phone, or if he can upgrade his talks in any way.
in truth, I think he is trying to get Vodafone, to upgrade and install
talks, when he upgrades his phone, so that he doesn't have to install it
himself, or disturb the moth colony in his wallet.
