Vodafone Outage in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, England

So @VodafoneUK I’ve done everything you told me to get my phone back working - I’m currently sat in your store in Hemel and they can’t help me either one week with no service and no solution in sight - any advice would be great !

@VodafoneUK worst customer experience of any biz I’ve ever dealt with. Accused me of lying, sent me in-store for no reason, data breaches, hours lost trying to transfer ownership, mis-selling, awful complaint handling. Can’t wait for our biz contracts to expire. Appalling. (End.)

@VodafoneUK I was able to call from outside of our village this afternoon. When I got home I now have no service on my handset (as does my wife) Vf site says our area WD35LL has maintenance until 19th😱. No calls for 4 days-seriously 😡

@VodafoneUK One area atm until I can drive somewhere else to try. My wife has same phone on my account and can make calls so I’m guessing it’s the handset. I’ve tried everything on the apple support advice but still can’t make or receive calls.

@VodafoneUK @VodafoneUK please can you look at my DM - been in Spain, account cut off - received texts saying big roaming charges despite ‘free roaming’ and can’t even access my account to see the damage as your site is down for maintenance

@VodafoneUK please can you look at my DM - been in Spain, account cut off - received texts saying big roaming charges and can’t even access my account as your site is down for maintenance

@VodafoneUK I am at my whits end after days on live chat, being promised that action would be taken and yet nothing done. You should be ashamed of this so called customer services. I am done with you #nowtbutlies

Update - DPD tried to deliver at 1030 this morning. When I wasn’t home. Funny that, given @VodafoneUK had promised they would book at hour delivery slot at 1800. I asked them to confirm they had done it and the ‘customer service’ person hung up rather than answer.

Classic @vodafoneuk . I upgraded, they sent me a broken phone. I called, they promised a replacement delivered at 1800 today in an hour slot. Of course it hasn’t turned up. They say it’s not their responsibility, it’s DPD. Won’t tell me if they booked the hour slot or day slot.

Its amazing @O2 can sort out fraud against my 13 year old daughter but @VodafoneUK cant & tell me to go to my local shop with my daughter to prove she didnt take out a contract like wtf!

4 calls over the last 2 days from @VodafoneUK offering me broadband or iPads for more ££ getting annoying now as a Vodafone customer for 14yrs

@jcampbell_05 @VodafoneUK For some reason I just went ‘yeah sure midnight green’ because it was the first option but holy shit I don’t care I just want my upgrade. But Vodafone sort of weirdly assumes you won’t be open to Any Other Option.

Here’s where the intelligence of technology falls down. I suspect the phone is in stock but not in the colour I arbitrarily ordered. They’ve not said ‘hey, if you ask for the space whatever, we can give you that!’ so I’m just left wondering...@VodafoneUK

Would like to thank @VodafoneUK customer service for being a bloody lovely group of people.

I decided to change from o2 to @VodafoneUK . So far I am not impressed with the customer service. Phones we ordered are on back order , that’s a week ago. Can’t get anyone on the line to track my order and as for finding out on line. You have to have a Vodafone number!

Considering they are two of the UK's biggest organisations, I have never received such a shit level of service for a business as I have from @nextofficial and @VodafoneUK over the last few weeks. Absolute masters in failure!

I suspect it may be time to move from @ThreeUK to @VodafoneUK as they don’t have #VirtualSim or #AppleWatch support, but the @ThreeUK #GoRoam plan is amazing. Decision later today. #NeedAllThree #PunNotIntended

@VodafoneUK Thanks. It’s been such torture on @ThreeUK that I need to at least have an escape route if the situation is no better with you guys. Although im not sure any network could be quite as gut wrenchingly awful as they are.

@VodafoneUK I know that. The issue is that I’m not using my phone any differently to how I normally would and the data is just constantly dropping. I used to have at least 3-4gb left toward the end of the month and now I’m lucky if my 16gb lasts at all.

@VodafoneUK experience that I totally regret. They haven’t changed or improve at all. In fact they’re getting worse. With incomplete unfriendly lying staff. That’s there just to lie and deceive you as a customer.

@VodafoneUK After nearly 10 years and thousands of money and stress spent by being a customer of this company. I decided to leave. And one moment of weakness decision I returned 3 months ago. And I can tell you Hans on heart that I wish I haven’t. Because it’s a completely awful

@VodafoneUK your customer service is absolutely horrendous.

@VodafoneUK unbelievably difficult customer service. I have been with you for years, and recently signed up for your broadband. I recently saw your bb offer for existing customers at £21. I asked to be put on this offer and am being forced to cancel my current contract #confused

Hi @VodafoneGroup @VodafoneUKdeals @VodafoneUK.... How have you been so successful at being so terrible for the past 72 days. You upgraded your systems and downgraded every element of your business. Can't even send email updates correctly. You should be embarrassed.

@VodafoneUK And despite my calls to customer services Maria didn’t back down and I stormed out of the store. I think it’s ridiculous that you charge for an on the spot repair but to have done for free I’d have to be separated from my phone for 10 days. I’ve had my contract for

@VodafoneUK I upgraded my handset in July 2018 to an iPhone X. The battery started loosing capacity few weeks ago and today I called customer services and asked if I could make an appointment in the Westfield store to have it replaced. The ******* the phone was helpful.

@VodafoneUK can not speak to anybody via phone no information nothing no store Tel numbers absolutely terrible I need my phone back working please!!!

@h4n_s0lo @lisa_a_dams @VodafoneUK Bbz text me the problem and I’ll get it sorted on priority

@VodafoneUK literally makes no sense to me... I can get my daughter a better deal on Vodafone by NOT buying frm Vodafone... Despite the fact that the 1st person who answered my call made a song & dance about my being SUCH a loyal customer and giving me the best deal possible...

@VodafoneUK That’s Shu but it’s a terrible service. I’ve called 191 and haven’t once been able to get through to an advisor. Could someone please call me because I’ve called 191 and 56677 multiple times already today with no luck. I just want to pay my bill.

@VodafoneUK I’m trying, and have tried since this morning, to pay my phone bill so it doesn’t affect my service but they system has been down all day. Please advise

@VodafoneUK is becoming one of the most unreliable network in London. I called customer service yesterday to complain about network issue at London Victoria are til now NO solution. Thinking of leaving them. I can't use my mobile data inside the building

@VodafoneUK are literally the biggest jokers in the world. Customer service is an absolute shambles and nothing ever seems to get sorted with them! Can’t wait to leave when this contract is up!!

@VodafoneUK customer service right now 😱😡👎🏾, although the staff in the Covent Garden store are 👍🏾

@_One8Seven1_ @VodafoneUK are shite mate, they rip you off over and over again despite being loyal. I binned them off for Three a few years ago, never had an issue with them

Kinda reeling from a very bad encounter with a @VodafoneUK, online help person wondering if I should bother with Round 2 or just cry 😭

@VModifiedMind @benwood @EE @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK @O2 Albeit using half rate codec for voice. Sounded pretty awful.

@VodafoneUK Unbelievably bad service from your assistants on chat.

@VodafoneUK I was asked to visit a Vodafone store and I did and they said they can't do anything... @VodafoneUK you never fail to disappoint with your services. Be it India or UK..

@EE Hello EE. I am desperate to move from @VodafoneUK as after 4 weeks they still can’t connect my Apple Watch series 4 to a data plan! Can you help. I have been a client of theirs for over 10 years. @Apple your product is being compromised by your contract with @VodafoneUK.

@VodafoneUK @SamsungUK I would not trust Vodafone with a 5G connection! They are still to connect my Apple Watch series 4 data plan and it’s been 4 weeks. @Apple their handling of new technology is pretty poor and I don’t think their infrastructure is set up with the client in mind!!

More bad news for @HuaweiMobile as @VodafoneUK pauses pre-orders for the Huawei Mate 20X (5G). Just a few days ago this felt like a very different opportunity.

@VodafoneGroup @VodafoneUK . Quite simply the worst customer relations department I have had the misfortune to deal with. Call after call since February! If I hear the word escalate one more time I will scream!! Useless beyond words.

@VodafoneUK I’m aware of the speed excuse but the reception is poor for the whole journey even when the train is stationary. It’s about time this problem was sorted out. With regard to WiFi - it’s not secure to use public WiFi - hence it’s not used.

WTAF @vodafoneuk: I’m porting a number from Vodafone to, errr, Vodafone and I’ve now been without service for over 24 hours.

@bt_uk thank you for the letter offering of 100 mbps 4 £60 a month. . Shame your current proposition I am paying for is rubbish. Yes I have turned it off and back on again. Looking forward to speaking with you about this tomorrow. Message courtesy of @VodafoneUK network.

After 8 years. I'm done with @VodafoneUK - not a very happy customer going into a store later on today to complain.

Don’t bother using @VodafoneUK customer service, it’s totally inadequate and no one bothers responding #CustomerService

@VodafoneUK special thanks to the “Tech” team who managed to turn my issue from not being able to use data to not having a scrap of signal now either...

@VodafoneUK has inefficient support system. And with top up system incompatible with US credit card.

@VodafoneUK So the saga continues,I ring to chase up & sort my account,the guy didn’t like my attitude & he has cut my phone off,2 hrs ringing from my wife @TheO2 phone to try & get it reconnected,this is embarrassing for you,this guy needs SACKING I really really wish I’d never joined you!

@VodafoneUK I've had no 4G signal /data all day - help!

@peter__uk @VodafoneUK @CPWTweets I don’t think the customer advisor’s name is kelly either. It’s probably an indian live chat centre advisor using a fake name. They’re lying through their teeth

@Darren_Fitzjohn @jadesharp1992 @VodafoneUK Tempted to cancel and wait for the Black Friday offers!!

@think_brew @AppleSupport You say this, but Calls failing miserably mid call with call failure is also a continual issue on @EE in my area, isn’t an Apple problem and doesn’t happen - for example on same device with @VodafoneUK so it might not actually be an Apple thing if your network has issues.

@VodafoneUK trying to set up a TCLMOVE kids watch and the QR scanner is not working and IMEI says it is invalid so I can’t pair the watch. Obviously the payment part worked perfectly though 🙄

If people have ordered their phones way before I did (6th Oct) and theyre still waiting then there’s no chance for mine coming @VodafoneUK it literally won’t be here until December then I’ll just cancel my it all and swap providers.

@VodafoneUK Tried that too no answer. This is so bad. Trying to get help is impossible.

Disgusted with @VodafoneUK and their cust service. Been very patient waiting an extra week for both my contract phones to arrive but offered only £15 compensation for the stress of this and 8 hours of phone calls and 2 unpaid shifts off work... not even a joke, that's offensive!

@VodafoneUK your customer service is shocking still waiting for a call back from customer relations following a data protection breech!! 😡😡
