I order things from ebay which are sent recorded, and I see it outside my door, with the recorded stamp on..
I guess the postman is too much in a hurry to write a missed delivery note....:D

By the way, see how vodafone screwes its customers on data charges

I would have kept the second phone as a backup just in case anything went wrong with the first. Vodafone had you on file as only ordering one phone, the delivery report only had you down for one phone. All you signed for was one phone, if anyone did question you, the evidence says you accepted one phone.

If it was the case that someone else was waiting for that second phone, they would have done exactly the same thing as you did and rang Vodafone to ask when they would be recieving their phone and Vodafone would process the order again for them.

In my world, if someone makes a mistake, it's theur fault. If I make a mistake, fair enough, I made a mistake!

Re: If you received 2 nokia n900 upgrade from your network what will you do?

Not really. If my bill is 100E and I mistakenly send them 200, it gets added to my tally and the next invoice will reflect that. They will not steal from you if you can prove you made the payment.

They will jack you any legal way, though, so I guess it's open for debate. IIRC it's not legal for you to keep it, so there.

I wish I knew what I would have done.

I just thought .... well I will earn it anyway ... in a good way. good thing my wife pressured me to return it because my subconscious tells me to keep it sell it and have android to play around LOL

Re: If you received 2 nokia n900 upgrade from your network what will you do?

i would keep. if Voda ask for it back, fair enough. if not, their bad.

my 2p: your mistake was telling your wife about the duplicate in the first place. ;-)

Re: If you received 2 nokia n900 upgrade from your network what will you do?

Going by the prevailing logic in this thread...

If one day you lose your N900...

....then it would be ok for the person to keep it if they reason that it was your fault in the first place to mishandle it?

....or if they think you're well-off enough to afford another unit?

i dont consider it dishonest or theft, the way i see it is if i was given something even if it was by mistake and they do not call to try fix the mistake that has been made then they dont care if u got more then wat u paid for. its like going to an ATM and withdrawing 50 dollars but when the money came out u get 2 50 dollars stuck to each other ... would you really go into the bank and hand back the extra 50 u recieved.

:eek: wtf, Did you order a FRIDGE from vodaphone, and THEY SENT YOU TWO fridges? Wow, you ARE lucky! They must be expanding their product line.

No, seriously, I would have kept the darn N900 in its box for a few months, and then given it to my wife, wrapped in gold paper and decorated it with some nice poetic writing (and she'd happily accept it). Why should I weep over a greedy brand-everything-you-buy company like Vodaphone? Allow me to laugh. If it would been a private person doing that mistake its a different story though, then I would have sent it back without doubt.
Their mistake --> Suck it up. :cool: Them making such mistake IS good karma, you should tell that to your wife. (Sounds like it's the delivery boy though that did they actual goofing)

I would have stuck an apple sticker over the Nokia logo and called around to blog sites telling them I found the iPhone v5 prototype in a bar until one of them paid me thousands of dollars for it.
