    @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK This doesn’t surprise me at all. My mother died in 2003 and trying to close her BT landline account was a nightmare. The person I spoke to kept saying “we need to speak to the customer”! Finally I went into the BT sales centre saw a charming lady and in 20 minutes I had finished.

    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! 😴😴😴😴😴😴

    @VodafoneUK sold me faulty broadband,charged me 100 of £ for data, after months of dispute agrd to cancel charges but ‘forgot’ i had to request a recording of call - took 30 days. It’s 53 mins long,clear except for the 8 mins where they said they would cancel which is distorted.

    @HJMovingFarAway @CostaCoffee @VodafoneUK That's why I went to the shop. Online & also online chat was crap. Told the guy what I wanted, if not I would nip upstairs to EE who could give me just that. No problem in fact I got more than I expected & saved a few quid in the process. I did not expect that. 👍😎

    @VodafoneUK I’m trying to add an additional line to my account but your website checkout isn’t working (and hasn’t been for several days). Call centre staff can’t help and just tell me to ‘try tomorrow’. Shall I go elsewhere or can someone sort this?

    @VodafoneUK broadband is shocking!! My TV is next to the broadband box and it still shows poor signal. I'm better off using 4g than broadband when at home. So infuriating

    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.

    @VodafoneUK It does now, but this should be made clear on marketing materials. I called to cancel my broadband sign up and they gave me £50 discount so it worked out ok in the end

    Attempting to setup a new mobile phone contract with @VodafoneUK is up there with being one of the biggest mistakes of my life. Worst communication skills and customer service I’ve ever come across. 😠 😡 😤

    Lee Anthony (@Holland4La) reported from Dudley, England

    @VodafoneUK That’s a lie! I called up on monday (whilst waiting for my order) as the link i was sent to ‘upgrade now’ let me go all the way through to payment and never once mentioned out of stock or a delay. You may have changed that now but that was always the case!

    Vodafone cease order stuck in Openreach CSS (DI7007595). Plusnet confirmed it’s Vodafone’s, BT’s order failed (CON‑0004). I’ve been unable to switch for months and Vodafone won’t escalate to Openreach SMC. @VodafoneUK @Ofcom can you help?

    @carlfhoward @TheRAC_UK Its annoying. Shout out to @VodafoneUK who didn't do this. When my intro deal was coming to an end they emailed me, not the other round, to offer the same deal again. Customer retained, cost to them probably pennies.

  • 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 Leaving after years with you. Donating free SIM cards to undocumented migrants arriving illegally on small boats is where I draw the line. I’ll be taking my custom to a network that respects UK border control and the rule of law. #Vodafone #CancelVodafone

    What exactly are you playing at @VodafoneUK? I was looking to moving to the network. Not happening now.
