26 Mar 2012 - Update Highest Rated Pain Stories Highest Rated Gain Stories Vodafail Local Facebook Page
Dear visitor,

Since its inception Vodafail.com has made a significant contribution towards raising awareness of the problems and issues faced by Vodafone customers.

Vodafone Australia customers have had the opportunity to voice their concerns, their fears and their troubles from every corner of Australia and beyond our borders. You have gathered the courage to stand up for your rights as consumers and to make your voice heard.

Each and every person who shared their story should have a sense of pride in this achievement and the changes that have occurred since the start of Vodafail.com.

More recently, traffic to Vodafail.com has declined significantly. Having achieved the goal of raising awareness and promoting concrete action in early 2011, we have now reached the point of closing Vodafail to new complaints. The site will remain online for as long as possible as a reminder and an example of what is possible when we share our experiences.

It has been a privilege to run this initiative and I'm am forever grateful for the help and support I've received. In particular I would like to thank Melissa, David and Travis for their continued efforts over the past 15 months. I'm also thankful and humbled by the support of ACCAN, Choice magazine and a wide range of media outlets, blogs and websites.

You can still browse existing stories and find out how to file a complaint if you are experiencing problems.

Until next time,

Adam Brimo

As a follow up note. Do not call Vodafone to enquire about your account. Apparently Vodafone are not able to look on their own system to see if they have charged you for something - i.e. usage information - only after the bill is processed is the company able to see what services they are charging you for! (by which time obviously you have seen it yourself on your bill) Useless b@st2rd5

Love to know what their auditors this of that.
17 Jan 2011 02:45:41 PM: correct, once the bill is generated, then they can look into your account and apply in credits if applicable
17 Jan 2011 04:31:47 PM: I'd be happy if they would simply credit payments I made on my paper bill to my web account. Monthly payments credited but NOT EXTRA PAYMENTS SUCH AS FOR EXCESS USAGE. Their system can't do something this complex. I've sorted out their pathetic networks problems by using Googles servers, and avoiding their's like the plague. For Christ sake, someone tell them that it is a reasonable expectation for your 'ISP' to provide a primary DNS server if it is listed in their software as the one to use! Using Google Chrome and Google's servers helped me a lot, thanks very much for useless accounting and customer service and technical staff Vodaf..k
