“My phone stopped charging despite using various chargers. The phone isn't 6 months old. I sent it back for repair and all of my contacts were erased. It is still only charging intermittently and I'm too fed up to bother sending it back again. I'm left with a very unreliable phone which cost a few hundred pounds.”

“Buying the phone was not an unpleasant experience but when I went into the shop to discuss it not working properly the person in the shop was dismissive and a little rude also they appeared to have lost all of my information from purchasing the phone as they had no record of me buying a phone there so just said there was nothing they could do leaving me a bit lost and let down”

“My first order didn't go through correctly and I received no call to advise so my upgrade didn't arrive in time and I had to reorder a few days later. I cannot daily the customer service i received when I called and placed my order for the second time the operative I spoke to was so helpful and couldn't do enough to makes up for poor service I had received prior to the second order.”

Hello Andrew, I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing problems with your signal at home and completely understand how frustrating this must be. I've checked your account and as your account is outside of the first 14 days it it Vodafone you will need to speak to. You will need to escalate this with them and they can complete some in depth signal checks for you. Kind Regards, Sam.

Hi Michele, Thanks for getting in touch! I'm so sorry to hear that your phone has developed a fault and completely understand how frustrating this must be. We do have a great Tech Support Team that will be able to help if you're experiencing problems with your phone. What they will do is run some tests and diagnostics on your phone to try and resolve the issue. The contact number is 08448 712233, and they will be happy to help. You are also covered by your manufacturer warranty, which means you can get your phone sent off for a free of charge repair at our repair centre. I have located your account, so what I will do is send you an email so we can discuss this in a bit more detail. I look forward to speaking to you. Thanks, Sam.

Hi Ryan, Thanks for your post! I ma really sorry that you feel this way. I can confirm that all of our prices and contracts are subject to availability and change. I'm afraid that we won't know of new deals that are due to come out, and our Team will aim to offer you the best possible tariff at the time to suit your needs. Thanks, Sam.

“When I dropped my phone and the screen broke i was a disheartened but a call to the phones 4 u care team put me at ease when they told me to take the phone to the retail outlet and it would be replaced. When I went to the phones 4 U shop every thing was dealt with by the assistant without any problems until I was told that the only samsung galaxy s4 that they had in store was a white one as this was the only colour that i didn't want i was told that they could order a different colour and i would be able to collect it from the store in 2 days. When I went to collect the phone 2 days later i was told it had not arrived , 2 days later it has still not arrived and have been told it wii be another 2 days before it gets to the store for me to collect. This is the second time this has happened to me the first time being when there was a manufacturer fault with the phone Come on phones 4 U”

As this is regarding Insurance you will need to speak to our dedicated Insurance Team and they will look into this for you further.

“Very bad communications,we bought two IPhones with a Vodafone contract.One of the phones developed a faculty.We called you and an engineer spent time trying to clear the fault.This was not done and he gave us a replacement ref no. After 7days I called again and was told that I should have returned the phone to get a replacement,this was never explained.”

Hi Asma, Thanks for your feedback! I can see that you did place your order over the phone with us. By all means you can still visit your local store if you do need assistance with anything. However, if for any reason an exchange needs to be done on your account then this would be done via the phone/post. This is so we can make sure that your account is kept up to date and noted, and also due to the system it has been processed cannot be completed in store. I'm sorry for any inconvenience that this does cause, but can assure you that if we did need to complete an exchange etc on your account it would be done as quickly as possible for you. Thank you for your feedback on this matter, I will pass this on to the relevant department so it can be considered in future. Thanks, Sam.

“Renewed contract from Samsung s2 to a note 3 on orange. Took me 4 months of ringing orange to get the right contract I signed up for from phones 4 u/dial a phone. Attempted to get phones 4 u to sort out their mess bit told to go to orange instead. Going tesco mobile next time I think.”

Hello Matthew, Thanks for your post! I'm sorry to hear that you had a problem with your contract when you received it. If it was a problem with the tariff and you weren't on the tariff that we agreed to at point of sale we ca help with this. We have a back office team that liaise with the networks closely and they would send across the relevant details needed to the network in order to get this fixed. Thank you for making us aware though as I will pass your comments on. Thanks, Sam.

“Thanks to phones4U and their misselling me a contract with EE I am now £200 in debt. I asked for an early upgrade on my contract as I was in need of a new phone. I was offered the Samsung galaxy note 3 with a lower monthly payment and a new number, brilliant! Or so I thought. It turns out that this was a new contract and my old contract hadnt ceased and month by month my bill was adding up as it wasn't being paid and the only reason I found out was from having debt collectors letters through my door! I have called orange and there is nothing they can do as they say the fault is with phones4u as they are the ones who have messed me around and this is a common complaint from customers. Thanks a lot phones4u! This is the second time I have been missold something! (The first time I was sold a phone after being told it had certain specs that it didn't have) janinedianne@hotmail.co.uk”
