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

5956 Someone from WA thinks vodafone is Despicable at 28 Dec 2010 06:56:30 AM
Haven't been able to hear and properly recieve phonecalls, and inevitably drops out after a couple of minutes if a call miraculously gets through. Takes 20 odd shots to log into facebook, packet data not being available or phone generally shitting itself. Girlfriend holidaying in India still hasn't recieved my txts (sent from my end 12 hrs ago)...and thats just the phone dramas. I used the vf Internet usb dongle for a couple of years in Cloverdale getting no more than 2 bars 3g reception, usually gprs and getting disconnected all the time. Bills seem extraordinary each month too. I send many texts and hit up facebook most days, assuming I am not alone and each mnthly bill is always upwards of 180 dollars...cap shmap, I want off the plan asap. Oh, I also recieved a bill from vf for upwards of 7000 dollars in 2009. I put my plan sim into the usb dongle experimentally and incurred the massive bill after 2 weeks. The fellow on the phone calmly and in a hard to understand language, told me 5500 had to be paid within 2 weeks..!!...Long story short, I called bogus on vf via the telecommunications ombudsman and their resolution centre and got the bill cut down to a more palatable 500 on the grounds of miscommunication on their behalf. Overall vf experience over 2 years = F****D!
