Engineers missed two appointments without letting me know. They threaten a £110 fee if I missed the appointment but offer less than the Ofcom scheme that they have signed up to. On the second missed appointment (a 9am to 1pm slot), I contacted their team via Tobi at 12:30 and received a response at 12:54 telling me that the engineer was still going to arrive on time. I questioned that and ten minutes later was told that there might be a problem and that they might need to rearrange. They put me on to a manager who told me the engineer was still going to arrive and that I needed to wait for them. Within two hours somebody then told me that they knew 24 hours in advance that the engineer wasn't going to arrive. They have consistently promised compensation but only once the service starts. However, after 9 months, I still do not have a start date. I pointed out that if I had missed those two appointments, they would have charged me £220. It grates on me that they do not value my time as a customer. Their response was to offer me £10 credit. When I declined, they went up to £50 as a good will gesture. I don't feel that they have particularly tried to help in even identifying what the problem is, let alone helping to solve this. After all this time, they till have not told me what the problem is, despite insisting that ultrafast broadband is available in my area. I have wasted hours and hours dealing with this company. My biggest mistake was trusting them twice. Please please please learn from this and don't trust them even once.

Just impossible to speak with somebody to advise me. I wanted to get another phone contract paying monthly. Been trying for 10 days to speak with a non machine. Impossible so I am off. You cannot get anywhere with the online app such a frustrating company. I would seriously avoid

Horrendous in every way. From placing an order, to speaking to customer service, I have never had so much stress over a pay monthly contract than I have with Vodafone, and I haven't even been able to start a contract. 'Making life easier' is an absolute joke of a slogan from Vodafone. Placed an order for it to be cancelled the day it was due, due to 'technical difficulties' yet noon could tell me why or even track the order and im STILL waiting for my refund of the upfront fee. Then they said they couldn't redo the order without me doing another credit check as I had a blue light discount on the deal which they cannot apply over the phone or on live chat (though the text stated that to replace the order I could do this through there). So I (stupidly) assumed that it was just a technical hitch and replaced the order and yet again, and the same thing has happened, order cancelled with no explanation, 2 hard checks now on my credit score and 2 upfront fees taken. Absolutely diabolical, and I'm now in the process of logging a complaint to take this to the ombudsman, as they are refusing to remove the hard check after cancelling my order without any reason. Think I found myself lucky escaping a 24 month contract with Vodafone.

Long story short- utterly disappointing and highly frustrating experience. Vodafone is sweating and promising to cancel my order which takes them a month (!!!!!) despite all the obligations are fulfilled from my side. More than that I’m facing charges out if my plan and my phone was suspended and not working for one day die to technical issues within Vodafone company. I spent around 25 hours talking to different advisors during last four weeks and the order is still open and charges are still applied to my account. Would NOT recommend this company dir to a very poor customer service.

Beyond bad. Swapped over on the 13th October. As of the 22nd October, still no internet. Can't believe what their team tell me as it conflicts with Open Reach engineers. Sent me to their local store to pick up temporary dongle.. Guess what, their store couldn't get on-line.. UNBELIEVABLE. Another engineer booked for the 25/10 but still no guarantee of internet. I've changed provider 4 times in the past, all changes have been smooth and trouble free.. Vodafone have been the only one to make a mess of it..

Just incompetent customer service. Since I joined they still can't fix my issue with logging to my account. They communicate very badly about the progress just suggesting me do so smth that doesn't work, ignore my emails or respond with robotic template. Also WIFi connection is not stable, my TV has issues connecting to the network as well as some of smart bulbs. After 3 months of the service I decided to leave.

Problem with local transmitter, no data or very slow and intermittent. Phoned up "Oh, terribly sorry etc, when it's fixed we will refund that period (9days) and give you compensation. It's now fixed, phoned up, "no sorry, we've decided we aren't going to give you anything" And I left O2 cos I thought they were bad. No more contracts with vodafone for me.😡

The worst company in the world. Do not got anywhere near these frauds. The way they treat customers is a disgrace, they messed up my direct debit took from incorrect account there mistake as they used an old account they had on there system. I rang up to correct in July but they messed this up & ruined my credit rating still on going, even tho they offer me credit as it was there mistakes they won’t correct my credit file, absolute disgrace. In the process of cancelling all my Vodafone accounts & contacted financial ombudsman. Horrific company staff have no idea what they are doing.

This has to be the worse mobile service provider i have had any experience with. the network service is poor as well as the customer service been equally as poor. it is extremely difficult to speak to anyone should you have an issue that cannot be resolved online. when i first took out my business contact with Vodafone there were issues for almost 8 weeks i was unable to use my phone without any issues. i was told i was on the highest possible tariff which will include roaming in European countries which is partly why i choose Vodafone till i found out that s a lie as i was unable to use my phone in Spain when i made a complaint about this i was told a manager will call me within 5 working days that was a month ago till now, I'm waiting for a call back. I've just called again today, and I've been told that a manager will call me back in 5 working days i doubt very much this will take place as i was told the same thing almost a month ago i would strongly recommend to aviod this phone network/company as you would be sold a lie using this company/network has been the worse decision I've made in a long time it has affected my business and personal life in an extremely negative way. please AVIOD at all costs

Don’t trust Vodafone + CityFibre on “gigafast” internet I switched from Virgin to Cityfibre due to assurances that it’s reliable from trusted friends, and the promise of symmetrical upload and download speeds. This was a huge mistake. Installation was supposed to be Monday 26th September. I cancelled Virgin that day and cut the cable so the engineers didn’t need to drill another hole in the wall. Then they said there was some sort of “gap” in the cabling further up the street to the cabinet, so it couldn’t be finished. No idea what the issue was, but whatever. It took Cityfibre until yesterday, Friday 7th October, to send an engineer out to blow the cable. I was promised that it would be arranged “within the next 10 days”, which seems mean “we’ll bother to call you to arrange the visit exactly 10 days from now, then the visit will be at some point after that”. That seemed to work, and the lights on the ONT are all green. But the internet is STILL not connected. The Internet light on the router is flashing red indicating it cannot be authenticated at Vodafone’s end. It was doing this all day yesterday. I wasted an hour on the phone to be told “everything is done our end, it can go live any time until midnight” even though it was patently obvious it would not magically fix itself at 2 minutes to midnight. Quelle surprise, it doesn’t work this morning either. I have wasted another hour on the phone to Vodafone, only to be told that it is something Cityfibre need to fix, and they may need an engineer visit. But they’re shut on weekends, so I need to wait until Monday I have been 12 days without broadband, relying on the 4G backup dongle. I have had to waste HOURS on the phone to both Cityfibre and Vodafone to find out what’s going on. And now it will be 14 complete days without broadband, assuming they actually fix it on Monday, which is seeming increasingly unlikely. No doubt I’ll be waiting another 10 days from Monday for the Cityfibre engineers to bother looking at the appointment system and scheduling me in. I am not even convinced it’s Cityfibre’s issue here, as the connection test the guy did to the ONT yesterday worked, it’s just the Vodafone authentication that’s not working. It’s definitely not the cable or the router hardware, as I’ve tested my own router (with the correct PPPoE credentials I was provided by Vodafone) and other cables. I asked Vodafone to just try resetting the PPPoE credentials, as based on other forum posts, this seems to be the solution. They flat out refused and said “the problem is with Cityfibre”. This would fix the issue within minutes, but they’re unwilling to even *try*. This constant buck passing and refusal of both sides to accept any responsibility is absolutely ridiculous. Don’t bother upgrading to Cityfibre through Vodafone if you get a circular through your door promising fast speeds, it’s probably not going to work and they’re not going to expend any effort whatsoever trying to fix it promptly. When it does eventually connect, I’m fully not expecting to get remotely close to the advertised speeds.

Signed up for 12-month sim contract in January. So this is a contract right for the sale of services right? So it should stay at £12 per month for the term of the contract? But in April, up goes the monthly fee to £13.11 with no warning. Noticing this, I called customer service just now to explain and the adviser was most rude and un-understanding. Apparently there will be a £50 charge to leave the contract now, or wait until next January! "Oh it's all in the terms and conditions" apparently! That's not what I was told when signing up, and not what I consider to be fair or equitable. Vodafone should perform their side of the bargain for the agreed fee, and if they decide to change the fee I should be able to pull out. Appalling - Avoid Vodafone at all costs

My $645 refund dating back to July has still not been processed by Vodafone. Their so called, "Customer Care" is all fresh air. The Vodafone review team tell me how sorry they are. Dont believe it! They've done nothing thus far. The CareTeam actually forgot about me and two weeks later, asked how they could help. I'm done engaging with them. My next exposure of this "No Service" company is"Fair Go", then debt collection. I'll be voting with my feet. Don't use Vodafone unless you like dealing with an Indian Contact Centre. No NZ Contact available. 0/10. I've kissed my money good bye!
