    @Kris_Robb @VodafoneUK Same here! Woke this morning to have an email saying ‘sorry, out if stock’ even though i was assured it would be here on the day of release. Poor management. Also, blaming Apple is ridiculous when other providers haven’t had the same issue.

    @danboq @VodafoneUK I must admit I can’t moan about the phone signal, I tend to get full bars. But I’ve never once had 5G, I’m starting to think it that it doesn’t actually exist...

    @VodafoneUK I’m currently a sim only customer with 49 days left on my current contract. I’m eligible to upgrade with yourselves but I would like to move to Voxi. Will you charge me anything to move to Voxi now or do I have to see out my Sim only contract with you?

    @HJMovingFarAway @CostaCoffee @VodafoneUK I have never had an issue with them. Even on calls always had UK based. Although, as we know these days there is little given to brand loyalty. I was expecting them to tell me to do one as I told them what I wanted rather than accepting what they wanted. Yep surprised.

    And @VodafoneUK even your CEO complaints department agreed on a recorded phone call that it was ridiculous l, but it’s process. Well here’s an idea look at the process and think of the customer maybe.

    Customer service via a live chat with @VodafoneUK is like pulling teeth. A reply every 3 minutes and a question after a question. How many customers do you actually get through this way per day, surely it can't be many. Almost 45 mins for simple query! 😴😴😴😴😴😴

    @Lindstar24 @VodafoneUK are an abysmal, thieving mobile & internet provider who charge exorbitant rates for a very poor service. ANYONE who has an account with them should seek professional help immediately.

  • Orsassur2
    Or Sassur (@Orsassur2) reported

    @VodafoneUK, I am publicly raising a serious complaint about the appalling treatment I received at one of your stores in London. I entered your store for one simple and perfectly legitimate purpose: to purchase a Vodafone SIM card. I was not asking for a favour, demanding special treatment, or attempting to obtain anything extraordinary. I was a prospective customer who walked into a Vodafone shop expecting the most basic standards of courtesy, professionalism and respect. What I encountered was the complete opposite. Instead of being treated as a customer, I was made to feel as though I had walked into a high-security government facility and was somehow an enemy of the Crown. The attitude of some members of staff was astonishingly arrogant, hostile and unnecessarily confrontational. Their behaviour created an atmosphere in which a simple commercial transaction became an unpleasant confrontation. What makes this even more disturbing is the apparent attitude towards customers who dare to question or challenge poor service. Rather than calmly explaining the situation and attempting to resolve the matter, the interaction became increasingly hostile. I was confronted with behaviour that I perceived as intimidating, including what I understood as threats when the staff did not want to deal with my request. Let us be absolutely clear: customers are not supposed to be intimidated into silence because an employee does not want to provide assistance. A Vodafone employee is not a police officer, immigration official, security agent or member of the Secret Service. A shop is a commercial environment. Customers have the right to ask questions, request assistance and expect reasonable explanations without being treated as suspects. The irony is almost unbelievable. Vodafone is a telecommunications company whose entire business depends upon people choosing to communicate with you. Yet my experience was one in which communication, courtesy and basic customer service appeared to have been abandoned at the very moment they were most necessary. I have travelled to London and deliberately chose Vodafone as a major and internationally recognised telecommunications brand. I expected British standards of professionalism. Instead, I encountered an experience that was embarrassing—not for me, but for the company whose name was displayed above the door. A major telecommunications company should understand that its reputation is not built only through advertising campaigns, impressive websites and corporate slogans. Reputation is built in the shop, face-to-face, when an ordinary customer walks through the door. That is precisely where Vodafone failed me. I therefore expect Vodafone UK to investigate this incident properly, identify the employees involved, review any available CCTV and internal records, and determine whether the conduct I experienced complies with Vodafone's customer-service standards and employee policies. I am not asking for preferential treatment. I am asking for accountability. If Vodafone believes that treating prospective customers with arrogance, hostility and intimidation is acceptable, then Vodafone should say so publicly. If it does not, then it should demonstrate that through action rather than another generic corporate apology. @VodafoneUK, your logo may be recognised around the world, but no brand is bigger than the people who represent it. When those representatives treat customers with contempt, they damage the brand far more effectively than any competitor ever could. I went into a Vodafone store in London intending to become a customer. I walked out wondering why anyone would willingly choose to be one. That should concern you far more than this complaint.

    @VodafoneUK if I get a new phone and I decide I don't like the colour, do I have to return it, cancel the whole order and reorder another colour again?
