300 text messages. Not 3000.

"Vodafone Messaging Plus has been designed for people who prefer to use
text messages rather than making voice calls. You can still make and
receive calls, but you can enjoy text, picture and video messaging
without paying for any inclusive voice minutes.

You get an extras pack of 300 text messages or 100 picture messages or
60 video messages, or any combination of these up to the equivalent
value, or you can use the value to browse non-Vodafone live! pages.

Vodafone Messaging Plus is a pay monthly price plan and is available on
18 month contracts."

So, it's an 18 month contract @ £20 per month for 300 text messages...
seems rather expensive to me considering their PAYG service allows you
to add 500 texts for £15.
