I purchased USB Modem on a 1 year contract from the Wollongong store. I was advised that I should experience a minimum speed of 500 kpbs. At the best of times, I would only get 50 - 150 kpbs (only 5% of the time I used the modem. I was advised by the store to call the service number which I did (Please note; no-one at the Vodafone stores will offer to assist with any problems regarding service - they are all sales people). I called the service centres (with a minimum wait of 20 minutes). On some occasions, I would end up in the wrong department after carefully choosing my options on the key pad. I would be advised to speak to the "data-people" who can analyse my coverage to determine whether I was receiving coverage (I understand formalities are needed). It took a while to convince the operator that the coverage map being viewed was the same one I viewed prior to purchasing the modem, and that it does not reflect reality. I called several more times to speak to these specialist to check out my problem in-depth with no luck after being on hold for close to half-hour; this is after being transferred. Eventually, I was advised to call another "date-service number" to speak with person that could correct the issue. I was advised to call within a hour timeframe (8-9am) which I found difficult due to the fact I travel to Sydney for work and I am in transit (NO chance of Vodafone USB reception in motion). I rang this number on return from work. After being transferred for half-an-hour from department to department. The last person I spoke spent a considerable amount of time repeating my calling history (which I obviously new) then in the last minutes transferred me to a department. I received a voice message advising that this department was now closed. I called the complaints department the next day. Not only did I reached the wrong department again, but also a girl with an attitude problem. I vented my anger (not at any individual) I was advised, and I quote, "After all that has been reported by you, I can see that you NOW had enough". I was advised to return the product which I did and no cancellation costs would apply in my case. I still keep receiving bills and this has forced me to go to my bank and bar Vodafone from accessing my funds. In summary: MISGUIDED INFORMATION ON COVERAGE, OVERLY-DETERMINED SALES PEOPLE, POOR COVERAGE, UNORGANISED CALL CENTRES, RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL CALL-CENTRE STAFF, TIME WASTERS. Thank you.
