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

2332 Someone from QLD thinks vodafone is Very unstable at 27 Dec 2010 12:32:51 PM
I have had continual poor reception with constant dropouts since I started my 2 year contract nearly 2 years ago. Since I use my mobile in my computer business you can imagine the embarrasment when calls with customers would just cut out. During calls I would also experience very poor call quality due to poor reception, making it very difficult to hear what customers are saying. My home office appears to be in a location where Vodafone coverage is not very good (even though I checked with the Vodafone shop staff before signing the contract) and most of the time my mobile shows no signal reception. I will often suddenly hear a text message come in saying I have a missed call, even though my mobile never rang. This is very common and quite frustrating. I'm definitely not getting my money's worth from my phone plan as I find most of the time I have to resort to a landline to make calls. I've tried different mobiles but I still have poor reception. I've also tried calling technical support a few times but haven't got very far. On a few occasions a Vodafone customer service representitive has rang my mobile but while talking with them my phone has dropped out, leaving me at square one. With only 3 months left in my contract I cannot wait to change providers so that I can use my mobile as expected. If Vodafone could improve their service I would be very happy to stay with them. I've found good reception with Telstra but I must say they are much more expensive...
