E-Scéal 64: Mobile Telephone Special Offer for Principals and Deputy Principals
- Published: 15 December 2004
You may be aware from recent correspondence to your school from 02 that they are offering a special mobile telephone tariff in favour of Principal Teachers. This scheme has now been extended to include Deputy Principals. Following an initial approach by 02 to IPPN outlining discounted mobile rates for our Members, IPPN agreed to support this offer and draw its attention to our Members.
Since the launch of this new mobile telephone offer, 02 have been overwhelmed with the volume of response. This has led to some problems, particularly people not being able to get through on the 1850 telephone number. In the interest of clarity please note the following points:
- There is no closing date on this particular mobile telephone offer.
- The initial terms and conditions required the mobile telephone in question be owned and paid for directly by the school. IPPN has now successfully negotiated with 02 modifying this particular term.
- The offer now covers mobile phones owned and registered by a principal/deputy principal; however the application and billing address must be that of the school. This ensures that there is a maximum of two beneficiaries of the scheme for any one school.
- In common with other discounted schemes offering preferential rates etc, payment for same is normally by direct debit.
Whilst IPPN supports this special offer from 02, it is nonetheless an 'offer' and the decision to undertake or reject rests entirely with you as an individual. However this scheme from 02 does appear to offer exceptional value.
Because of the generic nature of this promotion IPPN cannot become involved in advising individual members regarding its detail. In this regard I would appreciate if you would make all enquiries directly to 02 at 1850 200 148
02 are offering a 'lucky' Principal/Deputy Principal a complimentary skiing trip to Italy during the mid-term break in February. The winner will be drawn from all those who have signed up for 02's offer not later than January 14th 2005.
Is mise le meas,

Director.
