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

8588 Someone from ACT thinks vodafone is grinch-worthy at 29 Dec 2010 04:45:11 PM
Photos sent by MMS (from a Telstra mobile) on Christmas afternoon to my VodaMobile arrived on Monday 28/12.
SMS sent from Rural NSW from Telstra mobile at 9pm 28/12 did not arrive until 0620 29/12.
SMS sent from Westpac Bank 24/12 (as part of funds transfer security) never arrived - at all. Requested replacement SMS security code - never arrived.
SMS sent from Car Dealer for info on my car never arrived.
Other SMS arrive multiple times (only "sent" once)
Examples of SMS being sent multiple times but I only pressed "send" once - although credit where credit due, when I rang 1555 they gave me and account credit.
Frustration with poor coverage outside main areas including dead spots in main suburban areas around ACT.
A recent holiday uncovered almost no coverage throughout Tasmania.
The deals and prices might be pretty good but the adage of "you get what you pay for" is proving quite true.

29 Dec 2010 05:39:05 PM: All of these are true for me, plus I can call my Wife standing next to me Both with Desire HD's and it tells me her phone is switched off. Full reception on Both. Send her a message and it turns up 3 hours to 2 days later. Phones are meant to be able to be used for Emergence good God help me if she is ever in need of medical help...
