Vodafone is quite a pest in terms of spam, leaving them led to two dozen emails, a bunch of SMS and five phone calls. It is not surprising they don't bother to check spelling on their spam anymore.

Especially the emails, resending me literally the same offer of a 5€ rebate per month five times is just offensive spam. The other ones were just variations of the same offer with different styling.

It said "for five days". So I'd assume those minutes/data will only last for that period of time. So I'd imagine this is like when I go to Amazon every X+n months and it tries to reel me back in with a free month of prime. They're giving you freebies to use, to establish habits which they can then profit from later down the line.

The "unlimited data" is an interesting contrast and always makes me wonder "at how much speed?"

I am more surprised that mobile plans are still charging by the minute. A "toll quality" 64kbps audio stream is 480KB per minute. More advanced codecs use a fraction of that.

I'm even more intrigued by the whole family sharing two phones and switching sim cards. What's the reason behind it? How does it work?

My guess is personal and business number on different sims. Then just swap the devices that’s in. They don’t like being connected all the time.
