    What is the problem with @VodafoneUK in Seaham (SR7). Not getting 4G all the time and my WiFi has been absolute bollocks for weeks now. So much for super fast. 🙄

    Katie Wakenshaw (@katiewakenshaw) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @VodafoneUK Hi I’ve done this before and nothing has happened because you always say the signal is fine in my area when it’s clearly not. I’m paying nearly £70 a month and I can barely get on the internet

    Had an abysmal #broadband installation from @VodafoneUK yesterday. Not working today. I kept the #virgin cable service until I was sure it was working. Good move because #vodafone are cheap but hopeless.

    @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK Awful company! Had exactly the same issue .

    Terrible customer service over the past two days from @VodafoneUK. No-one I have spoken to has a clue what is going on or what to do.

  • andywatson8
    Andy Watson (@andywatson8) reported from Washington, England

    @VodafoneUK now I have no broadband service at all..and you even told me to go to another provider..even though it’s your company that has left me with no Broadband.I still think mis-selling is illegal. I aim to seek compensation for lost work.

    Andy Phillips (@AndyPhillips1) reported from Dunston, England

    @VodafoneUK daughter’s phone faulty a couple of weeks after purchase.Sent away twice to be repaired only for it to be sent back today for the second time still damaged! Paying a fortune still for this contract without a phone! Customer service absolutely horrendous #avoid

    @VodafoneUK you've got to be some kind of idiot to make an app for WiFi/internet connection complaints that's doesn't work when WiFi/internet goes off....again

  • M0RNR
    Brian Pickup (@M0RNR) reported from Sunderland, England

    @VodafoneUK I don't, I've had my O2 account credited with £30 for the inconvenience of having no mobile signal in Stanhope for nearly 2 weeks. However it appears Vodafone customer service isn't so good and @MardybumHelen is one of those customers

  • GeoffWadeSwim
    Geoff Wade (@GeoffWadeSwim) reported from Longbenton, England

    @VodafoneUK I've just switched to you and am disappointed to find out that you have no network coverage in Tyne & Wear @My_Metro tunnels. With @EE I got 4G suitable for video calls and uninterrupted Teams meetings from home to work. Now I can't even get 2G. When will you upgrade?

  • LeeSArchibald
    L S-Archibald (@LeeSArchibald) reported from Dunston, England

    Just had the worst customer experience from @VodafoneUK to be told from a senior customer relations advisor that I should explore deals from other providers is shocking, only complaining in the first place as 2 pieces of mis-information had been provided already #appalling

  • sunderlanddanny
    danny (@sunderlanddanny) reported from Washington, England

    Still offered me nothing offered to find out what has happened @VodafoneUK ?!...I know what’s happened my live date was delayed 35 days knowing the reason isn’t gonna get me lost money and time back it’s not gonna make me feel better or sleep easy at night. Customer service tosh

    What a total farce I’m having with @VodafoneUK seems most of the staff like to lie and no loyalty for a customer of 10 year

    Paul Hewitt (@Chewylad1981) reported from Washington, England

    @VodafoneUK How about improving your customer services? Been with the company for years and never had so much hassle and bother these last few months!!!! Be will looking elsewhere for next upgrade

    @DTrucker81 @bt_uk @SkyUK @VodafoneUK @EE Yeah I used to be to we have all our mobiles with them too but the issue is the same as all the other providers use the bt line none of them can connect us

    @VodafoneUK Got targeted by a sophisticated scam impersonating Vodafone, same sender ID, real account details, and convincing support language. Looked 100% legit. Reported it, but no proper investigation. Customers beware: never share verification codes. #Scam #Fraud

  • MadDal85
    Mad Dal (@MadDal85) reported

    @VodafoneUK I do not know what your game is, but my PAYG phone has not been receiving any incoming calls for a little while now. What if someone was trying to get hold of me and it's emergency? Get it sorted please!

  • Johnfo1428695
    John from britain (@Johnfo1428695) reported

    @VodafoneUK Why is your customer services so awful you have got to be the worst i have ever had to talk with. If I contact you regarding an upgrade or extra service or anything that involves you taking more money I chat to someone with really good English. So annoying wasted a day

    Ian Waring (@ianwaring) reported

    Mother in laws Vodafone Connect went down all weekend. That's back, but any call to her router connected home phone gets greeted with "This number does not exist". Been 4 days now. Poor service, #VodafoneBroadband #VodafoneUK

  • macon1375
    Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported

    Absolutely shocking from @O2 today. Years of loyalty and 2 hours haggling still give me worse deals than a new customer….. who wants my business @ee @VodafoneUK

    Delwar Ullah (@Sheffield128) reported

    @VodafoneUK Gemini has just told me she’s now on your platform that is fantastic. I’ve got a on my phone right now. Can I make a little suggestion? Get rid of Toby? Let Gemini do that job from a customer that has been with you since 1995.

    So funny that I made an official complaint with @VodafoneUK in August 2025 that STILL hasn’t been resolved. I have no idea where to start with this.

    @KirstieMAllsopp @VodafoneUK @lycamobile Had a nightmare with Lyca trying to save a few quid literally walked into my local tesco mobile shop and nearly cried whilst telling the brilliant youth my life story of hell !

    @VodafoneUK have you got anyone in the UK I can speak to? Actually call, speak, voice? I cannot undertand the heavy accents of your retentions teams and it clearly is bad for your business. A human would be nice.
