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

1806 Someone from VIC thinks vodafone is Woefully fail at 27 Dec 2010 10:09:26 AM
I live in East Melbourne - I see the skyline of the city not 200m from my open balcony. Yet do I get reception? Nope.

For a year now I've been manually turning off 3G when I get home. The EDGE network at least gave me bars to make and receive calls at home.

Time was when I'd re-enable 3G when I went out: no more. Why bother, when you can't actually use the internet connection? The bars are there but attempting to browse is a fruitless exercise.

Now, to add insult to injury, I no longer get a signal at all. "No Service", it says, unless I actually walk out on to the balcony. I'm in central Melbourne, for god's sake.

I moved to an office in Fitzroy a month ago. Guess what I get, sitting at my desk? Correct. No service.

If Vodafone spent half of their advertising budget on their network we'd all be in a better place. They should be forced to put a bar on new customer registrations until they've fixed their core infrastructure.

Disgusting, Vodafone.
