26 Mar 2012 - Update Highest Rated Pain Stories Highest Rated Gain Stories Vodafail Local Facebook Page
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

10922 Someone from QLD thinks vodafone is Online Fail at 6 Jan 2011 02:04:01 PM
Ordered new mobile phone on plan online on 9/12. Received handset 13/12 and found to be faulty. Rang 14/12 after 1 3/4 hours I was told that a new handset would be sent to me within 10 days and a bag will be enclosed so that I could return the faulty handset. Rang today to find out when I might expect it. After 1 1/2 hours told that they had no record of that arrangement on file and that I should take it to my local Vodafone shop (which I had been told on the 14/12 that I couldnt do) Took to my local Vodafone shop and they were on hold for 2 hours trying to sort it out for me and then got hung up on. The lovely staff at Vodafone Shop are trying to sort out for me. Never buy online ever again!
6 Jan 2011 02:15:01 PM: Yep= that is partly why I am reluctant to ok that part of the situation with the TIO and Vodafone. I don't trust them at all anymore- Vodafone fears the industry funded TIO as much as I fear fairies, and I am just not ready, and may never be ready to get the run around you've just decribed, after all the other phoning and run around, and then be trying to get the promised refund back when the evidence (the phone) is off to Vodafone, and they have no record of my having sent it. I DON'T TRUST THEM ONE LITTLE BIT! Not when I have proof of how fearlessly deceptive they have been.F*CK YOU VODAFONE! And shame on you TIO! and shame on me if I ever believe anything either of them says or puts in writing ever again!

@Vodafone and TIO
"F**k you and f**k you too"
VF's song to customers and the TIO- "F**k you and f**k them too" ?
