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

20910 Someone from NSW thinks vodafone is A TOTAL MESS at 19 Feb 2012 11:06:03 PM
Few months ago I subscribed one of those pocket wifi with vodafone... Crappy service, not happy at all, and I cancelled the service after two supposed "free extra months" offered in the retention team.

Once I cancelled the service, I was instructed to return the device through a return box that I never received. after calling a thousand of times to get the box, I went to one store to return the device.

I have been receiving every month a big bill that I should't pay.. I call them over and over again to explain my situation and every time they say that the problem is sorted, that I owe nothing, until I receive the same bill the next month.

Don't know what to do, I am desperate with this and mortified that this may affect my credit record (which I don't have)... and I don't want to pay a bill that I don't owe.

Any advice would be really appreciated.

20 Feb 2012 05:41:43 AM: Similar thing happened to me, except mine was for their mobile services.

I phoned them several times, even got in contact with their facebook team, who assured me the issue was resolved.

Next month..........exactly the same thing happened again.

I then called the TIO.

The chap from VF called about 8 days later, I explained the issue, he identified the problem, rectified it and presto no more bills.

As poster 20 Feb 2012 01:09:02 AM has observed contact the TIO, sad to say but it appears to be the only way to get some VF issues resolved.

TIO contact details at the top of the page under the How To Complain tab.
