  Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported 7 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  At Star City in Birmingham, outside and can only get 3G. Come on @VodafoneUK , get your 4G network up to scratch before sorting out 5G (particularly as that roll out is slow).

  @VodafoneUK So after yesterday and speaking to an advisor who we thought was really nice and said she would call my wife today at 11am to sort out her upgrade issues we’ve heard nothing. So now my wife has been lied to 3 times on the phone and also been called moody because she’s pregnant...

  @IamSMadhavan @VodafoneUK Got the same issue. Waiting more than 24hours now with no service and @VodafoneUK couldn’t care less. Been on chat and phone to them for more than 4 hours.

  @jadesharp1992 @Courtneysteve98 @VodafoneUK My network three were offering me one and I would have received it the next day but I went out and bought one Sim free as I don’t like paying high monthly outgoings as I decided that this would be the year that I would say goodbye to 2 year contracts

  Tom Geraghty (@TomG1875) reported 11 minutes ago from Solihull, England

  @VodafoneUK placed a order online to collect In store (the fort Birmingham) has a email saying the order was ready to pick up, travelled to the store and they said the systems down and don’t know when it’ll be back up (already been down for a week) so I can’t collect the phone.

  @Ker_Anderson @VodafoneUK Oops, sorry about that! I got 676 down and 90 up! Very impressed, that was on an iphone 12 pro!

  @VodafoneUK We have been without broadband from you for 10days now. We have had very little support and whenever we contact customer service they do not provide any assistance.

  Fucksake @VodafoneUK trying to do a trade in for my old phone is a nightmare and now have to wait to re do it as you think my phone is damaged and there isn’t a single ounce of damage to it

  @HJMovingFarAway @VodafoneUK My dad warned me about Vodafone before. But obviously I saw a deal. He wasn't joking about their customer services. Usually its been okay out of the 2 or 3 precious times I've contacted them. I've never had someone be awkward. She has to be new. Either new or lazy. Either all.

  @alimurtazamohs1 @VodafoneUK Agree with this. Im getting 5g indoors apparently but every mast in the 50km vicinity is broken and I cant even watch BBCIplayer...

  @VodafoneUK H, no mobile internet in Walsall ? I’ve messaged you my details - please let me know fix time.

  Phil Dodd (@Phil_dodd) reported 40 minutes ago from Walsall Wood, England

  Could everyone have a look at this exchange between @VodafoneUK and my wife. The Crux of the matter was a better deal was being offered to new customers than it was to her wanting to upgrade after 10 years of loyalty. Once they have you have you as a customer. They stop caring.

  Athene Secure (@AtheneSecure) reported 43 minutes ago from West Bromwich, England

  @VodafoneUK broadband down AGAIN for the THIRD time in less than three weeks. Truly appalling 'service' - I wish I hadn't moved from the reliable service I used before with @Plusnet

  @Samunitedfan @VodafoneUK Sky have no answer to this.They keep saying they're working on a solution but nothing for weeks.

  @VodafoneUK Is anyone going to get back to me about about my one number issue I’ve got. I got a DM off someone yesterday at half two and that’s that nothing else since.

  Majed Mir (@MajedMir) reported 50 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  Hey @VodafoneUK, what's going on with your network today? My data is abysmally slow! I've got b/s speeds instead of m/b. Yes, my connection is at full and I'm on a 4G+ connection.

  Arun Hebbar (@ArunHebbar7) reported 7 minutes ago

  @rksrajiv @VodafoneUK @AdityaBirlaGrp For a moment, exclude the Rs. 36,950 crore equity conversion and consider only the financial activities (i.e., cash inflows and cash outflows) from 01 Oct 2021 to 31 Dec 2025. Accordingly, as of 31 Dec 2025, Vodafone Idea has a cash shortfall of Rs. 26,620 crore. Hence, the company cannot fully discharge its interest and finance obligations, nor can it allocate funds for network expansion. Now consider that as of 31 Dec 2025, the Government has provided relief on AGR dues and freezed the final AGR liability at around Rs. 64,000 crore till FY2036. Accordingly, the AGR interest recognised by the company during the moratorium period does not need to be discharged immediately. Therefore, if you adjust the earlier cash shortfall of Rs. 26,620 crore by excluding Rs. 17,102 crore of AGR-related interest, the net shortfall comes to approximately Rs. 8,000+ crore as of 31 Dec 2025. Lastly, coming to Spectrum obligations, the company has recognised around Rs. 55,254 crore. Even after reducing approximately Rs. 9,000 crore towards the cash shortfall, the company would still be able to discharge nearly Rs. 46,000 crore. With this, Vodafone Idea would reduce its Spectrum obligations from around Rs. 1.2 lakh crore to nearly Rs. 74,000 crore. In such a scenario, lenders may be willing to provide around Rs. 45,000 crore in funding, which the company can utilise for network expansion and CAPEX purposes. That's all I am trying to explain. In any case, Vodafone Idea still has multiple possibilities to clean up its balance sheet without any further equity dilution. 31 March 2026 Financial results are very crucial.

  Seems bizarre that despite being on the phone for over an hour @VodafoneUK has told me that I’m unable to raise a complaint by phone, despite their policy say I can. Hmm a phone company that you can’t complain by phone ? ?

  @KH4NS @VodafoneUK I can understand that there can be technical issues but a 3 week time period is too much Is anyone else in this area also facing such slow speed? 🤨

  Cyber Woogy (@CyberWoogy) reported 11 minutes ago

  @VodafoneUK price quoted to cancel Vodafone BB £171.58. Have since paid another £39.50 while awaiting transfer to EE. Now Vodafone issues a final bill of £218.65! Clearly, this is incorrect, but I can’t access chat to discuss it

  @thewitchof653 @IsntWorkingPod @VodafoneUK They simply cannot stand the idea that the modern workplace exists to support all employees no matter what their circumstances. They have to paint a picture of disgruntled colleagues and unrest.

  @VodafoneUK I have an open complaint (167430127). I'm moving house locally and you can only provide 60 Mbps instead of my contracted 900 Mbps. Your agent is demanding a £555 exit fee for a service you can no longer provide. This is a material detriment.

  Jonny Wilson (@jonnypwilson) reported 16 minutes ago

  Been with @VodafoneUK for 10+ years. Just called up to see if they can offer me a better deal before I switch to a cheaper provider. Chap on the phone essentially shrugged his shoulders and told me "cheerio". Very strange approach to customer retention.
