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

5971 Someone from VIC thinks vodafone is No reception; no customer service. at 28 Dec 2010 07:04:26 AM
For nearly two years now I have suffered at the hands of Vodafone. I had been using Vodafone for a long time without too many problems, so I decided to get a new phone with them on a $29 cap contract (over 2 years), as the $29 caps had been doing me fine previously. Within a short couple of months of signing that contract Vodafone changed networks, and I was in dire straits. With the frustration of next-to-no reception and constant dropped calls, I feel that they were in breach of contract, as the contract I signed was for the previous network. I have attempted numerous times to sort out this problem. To cut a long story, the final straw was to be told that I could not contact the appropriate people by email, I had to phone them. They could not transfer me, I had to phone them! I tried to point out the irony: How can I phone them when I have no reception and/or the calls simply drop out? Their reply was, "Yes, I understand, but that is the only way we can help you." How much I loathe that "I understand"! I have now given up and am waiting for January 19 to finish the contract; it will be interesting to find out what their reaction is going to be when I demand that they unlock the phone because I am going elsewhere in the hope of receiving better customer service.
