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

14124 Someone from Somewhere else thinks vodafone is frustrating at 22 Jan 2011 08:06:06 AM
My FREETEXT number for topping up keeps not working - I just get a message saying I haven't got enough credit to send a text! Rang up call centre, held on for ages, finally got a guy who told me yes, that was quite right "because I had dialled over 100 '027' numbers over the past year" ...???? I tried to figure out what this had to do with a FREE text no. not being free ... and got nowhere.
I tried to put my query through the vodaphone website and the email function didn't work.
So I rang the callcentre back and ended up speaking to an 'engineer' who was only on call-centre duty because they were overloaded with complaints, she said. She told me the guy I had been speaking to was an idiot, added my top up for me but couldn't explain why my Free text no. was demanding money before it would work.

Slides more to the useless end here.
