NOT EVEN WORTHY OF 1 STAR Worst customer service ever, no transparency, misleading sales team working in PPI-style scam to get you lured into a deal full of hidden costs, with NO warning and NO prior information. Billing is not transparent and they cannot provide details on how they calculate usage when asked, EXTORTIONATE CHARGES (£170 for 6gb, in what world is that reasonable), and they won't budge when we try to dispute it.

Closed my account with them as they decided to increase my tariff. At the end my account was in credit. Very difficult to get the money refunded. Various excuses given but still no sign of my money! Be very careful.

My iPhone 6S was snatched by a fast cyclist while waiting for a bus in Dublin. I used my husband's phone to contact my daughter who contacted Vodafone. Within 5 mins the sim had been cancelled. I went straight to Vodafone I. Forestside Belfast when I got back to Belfast and again they were so helpful . They gave me a very competitive price and I got an iPhone 7. Honestly so helpful. Many thanks

We have been waiting since last Friday 20th October to go live. The web chat team are a complete and utter waste of time. Contacted complaints was told they would be in touch within 48 hrs still no reply. It's now been 9 days since we we meant to go live with our broadband and 7 days since I issued a complaint.

We are having trouble getting the free gift that was promised when we signed up. I wish we had read the reviews before we joined up with them. Awful customer service

Awful service with direct debits. Mine were stopped without my knowing then I got hit with penalties for not paying on time. I would not ever recommend them. When I started with them they were excellent but since payments have been taken over by another company they have gone downhill. When I phone the staff are very helpful, it's just a pity the ones at the top make up the the rules. I have now left and got a far better deal elsewhere and far better service.

They lure you into a broadband deal with a free gift, which you can only claim after the cooling off period, with a code which does not work when yo finally receive it, and when I try for the 5th time two weeks later, all I get is an error message and then when I email the TLC company that this is outsourced to they are saying that I am a day too late! I can't call them and when I call to complain at Vodafone, they don't even log my complaint and just refer to TLC. TLC just refers to T's and C's. They should ask me to choose the gift the moment I join, as part of the registration. Then only deliver it after 45 days if they apparently don't trust their clients. When I recieve a text to ask me for my opinion of the call to Vodafone, I can't even send a bad score! Wifi glassfiber is very slow as well, connection is disrupted every minute. Regret signing for 2 years, will certainly leave straight after that.

I was with Talk mobile paying £15 a month then Vodafone took over. The first month with Vodafone they took £80 out of my acount then £70 the month after they then cut me off so I had to pay the balance of £54 so I stupidly paid that. 2 weeks after I was cut off saying I need to pay my bill of £65. So yeah I'm involving trading standards and financial ombudsman. They told me I was going over my data when I have it switched off when I'm at work then I connect to my WiFi at home. I went to Spain during this time and wasn't able to use my phone. Just shocking. People don't go with Vodafone they rip you off honestly you're best off with sim only. Disgusting the way I've been treated

I was on my pay as you go with Vodafone going on with my life with no debt problems, before I know it Vodafone kept calling me asking me to join a contract ( DON'T DO IT! IT'S A TRAP!!!!!!!) they said I was paying more money that being on a contract would be better, I fell for the scam and before I know it instead of £20 or max of £40 a month they did not stop my data from running I changed from a £20 20gb because they have no unlimited data so I increased it to £40 for 40gb but within a month they left my data uncapped and ran me up £545 (SHOCKED!) on my txt I called Vodafone but they said that they can not do anything untill I pay up £275 but am a full-time student, that could not even be possible for me to cough up at a go, then within a few weeks they took my bill to a debt collectotion agancy so they started calling me to ask for the whole £545 which has now increased to £585. I have now been advised to go Citizens advice and Ombudsman to file a bigger complaint on Vodafone. They are horrible so PLEASE SO NOT FALL FOR THE VODAFONE SCAM!!!!!!!!

Vodafone has lost my trust and I would NOT recommend this company to anyone. They keep on stealing money from my bank account by taking much larger monthly payments from my credit card, despite a much lower, agreed cost per month. When I try to contact them about this, they promise to refund the money back to my card but I have never yet received a refund. A dishonest company who will just rob your money! Would NOT recommend to anyone!

I have only given one star because I can't leave none. My account has been plagued with issues. From my DD not being collected regularly to service restriction due to aforementioned error. NOT my error.. Vodafone for what ever reason didn't collect the payments leaving me playing catch up. Also, I was miss sold a contract believing it was an early upgrade- I was told as I had been a loyal customer for the past 16 years I could upgrade early, i was left with 2 phone lines plus handsets and hours on hold to sort that issue out. Finally reached the end of my last contract with them in August 17 to be told that even though i owed no money to them, my contract was over and the handset paid for.. I would need to pay £50 for a months service until they could release me to PAYG!! WWHHAAAT??? My original contract was on £37!! Absolutely ridiculous. I have left now and will never go back.. STAY AWAY FROM THEM!!

Where do I start? I ordered broadband with them on the 1st of September. On this date, I was told that I was booked in with an engineer for the 18th. So I travelled to nottingham for that date, having to take time off specifically for this. Then on the morning of the 18th, i'm sent an email telling me to 'get ready for my installation on the 21st'. After waiting hours on hold, i'm told to wait until 8 for the engineer, which I knew wasn't going to happen. So on the 21st, when I'm not in the county, I get a call telling me that the bt open zone guy is outside. Once I tell Vodafone about this problem, they were quick to give me 50gb free if I was with Vodafone mobile (which I'm glad i'm not), or add 'credit to my account', which costs them nowhere near as much as it costs me to travel on short notice and take days off work to be stood up. After calming down and agreeing to have an engineer come on the 12th of October (21 days notice), an engineer shows up on the 10th. Which was incredibly inconvenient, because it made me late for work, waiting for this guy to do absolutely nothing as it turns out. Then I called to find out why this was the case, and was told that 'engineers come whenever they're free and around your area'. Now, even a child can point out why this would be an infinitely bad idea, especially since if you're unavailable for your surprise visit, you're charged a missed appointment fee. But that aside, the broadband still wasn't working after installation, I once again called Vodafone (18th time by this point), and was told that it wouldn't go live until the 12th. Which I thought was fair. The 12th finally came, and the broadband still wasn't working, so when I called (19th time), I was told that 'the broadband order on my account was cancelled', and that apparently 'this is a rare situation that never happens, but they're going to try to fast track my activation date'. After hearing this nonsense, I was contacted later in the day to be given a status update saying 'btw, nothing has happened yet'. Probably the least informative update to ever have to endure. I called back later that day to be told that I had an engineer visit on the 23rd of October, which I never booked and had no idea about. I still wouldn't have known this date unless I had called them, and it's lucky I did. I was told that the openzone man had not installed the line properly, and I need another appointment on a date I never agreed upon. I had decided to cancel my account with them, and they literally encouraged me to leave. No retentions, no explanation, just 'shop around and we'll be happy to cancel your contract free of charge since you're within your first 30 days'. What's interesting about this, is that if I had waited until the 23rd, and nothing had happened, I'd have been outside of my 30 days, and would've been expected to pay a cancellation fee, which felt almost like a plot to trap me within their horrible service. Not once did I feel like they were listening to my struggle, and till this day, I still haven't received my cancellation email. It's almost as if they're trying to be sleazy with their services to suck money out of you. I now get nothing from their lack of competence, but wasted time and money, while these guys laugh all the way to the bank with for their lack of half decent customer support. I still have no internet thanks to these clowns. I call them clowns because their service is absolutely laughable. I honestly wish I could review less than one star, because I think even that would be too generous.

By far the worst customer service ever. Been having problems for over a year and still not sorted. You have a problem and get put through to some idiot in Egypt yet if you go through to sales it's someone in england. DO NOT JOIN VODAFONE

Its more a case of what went right? Nothing! It's difficult to know where to begin. No one can follow simple instructions. No one listens to you properly so they always get things wrong. I've lost count of the times I have called to rectify a mistake they made in changing from contract to pay as you go when my contract ended. ( they took the wrong phone off) Today again I have just spent so long trying to sort this out that I almost ran out of battery it took that long. Now I am told that the only way to rectify this is a new sim,which I will then need to port my number to when it arrives, although they admit it's their fault! Both people I spoke to had such strong accents and spoke so fast that I had difficulty understanding what they were saying. Wouldn't let me speak with a manager as " I can assure you they will say the same as me". I gave up in the end and can only hope that after the fifth time of trying that it's sorted this time. I'm not holding my breath. Watch this space. They have given me discounts, months free etc., but honestly, all we need is good service to begin with. I only use vodaphone because the coverage is the best here. If you have a choice, don't touch them. Having said all that, I've recently had cause to use their store in Stratford upon Avon for another reason, and found them very helpful.
