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

9553 Someone from NSW thinks vodafone is billing, coverage, customer service ect!! at 31 Dec 2010 12:51:55 PM
I'm currently on vodafone's $99 cap. I have been with then since the old analog days and in the last 3 years i'm ready to have a sense of humor failure!! The coverage problems seem to happen whenever you step out of the sydney basin anywhere up or down the east coast and also massivly inland, a 3hour blackspot between yass and griffith is not ideal in anyones books!! The data download on the iphone is appaling any slower and i fear my phone may lapse into a coma!! and thats when i actually have 3g coverage. the sutherland area seems to be the worst for coverage in my opinion.
Now for the customer service. I have no problems with other cultures however you can not solve my problem if you do not understand my question!!! i would love to have my problem solved within the first 5 minutes of the phone call however currently it takes five minutes for the operator in India to get my name correct!! I spend in excess of $1600 a year with vodafone, and they are just about to lose that now and if that seems like only a drop in the ocean will consider 5000 people pulling up stumps too woops vodafone now it's more like $8 million. all i want is good service that i pay for i know things happen in big networks and thats ok but 3 years of crap and lost income is too much!!
31 Dec 2010 01:04:09 PM: just thought i'd add a calculation from my last reply if the 9230 people currently on this site....say averaged a $60 bill per month (yes i understand its probably a lot more) if we all left vodafone in one month would lose $553,800 and over just one year $6,645,600!!! take note vodafone the people are speaking!

31 Dec 2010 02:46:16 PM: from wikipedia - "with around 332 million proportionate subscribers as of 30 September 2010."

here i used 80 bucks a month with the 332 million people. not obviously not the exact figure; but we'll work out a rough guess..

$318,720,000,000

i'm sure they could use some of that to fix this.

then again, it is vodafone. they're not that smart.
31 Dec 2010 04:30:56 PM: Yeah Voda is not that smart, they only have a business that size because they are dumb, you my friend are a slow cunt.
