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

2997 Someone from NSW thinks vodafone is extremely at 27 Dec 2010 03:13:56 PM
I have been a customer of vodaphone for many years and over the years i have tollerated an insane amount of (insert profanity here). I have spoken to their 'customer service' (and i use the term extremely loosely) almost once a month and have spent, in total, approximately 30 hours on hold. (What a sucker i am). The service that i have received has been appalling on every level. From miscalculations on the bill, extra charges that were not explained to me, being rushed into signing a contract, trying to get through and instead getting extra charges because i couldn't get through in time, not to mention the phone bills created with other carriers because i needed to make a call and there was no reception (shocker). I have been in situations where i urgently needed to phone someone and couldn't, other situations where i was waiting on important phone calls that never came, because my phone was unable to receive calls, because once again there is no reception. The areas that i have not got reception are not remote places, far from it. I can be in the middle of the CBD and have no reception, or in a place standing next to other people who are with other providers and still have no reception, while they have full reception. I have not only had problems with the 'customer service' and phone coverage, but the actual employees of vodaphone and the hardware. The current handset i have is the second one i have had this year and it has given me nothing but problems. The people working for vodaphone are worse than second rate, i have been in the vodaphone stores to try and sort out many many various problems and the people tell me to call the vodaphone customer service number. After i explain to them that i have a life and would not like to spend it on hold listening to static that changes volume every 3 seconds they simply tell me they can't help. How bad must a company be to have an entire website dedicated to complaints. It sure does feel good to share this though. Also, if L.A.R.A was a real person i would like to slap her face.
